Default V&H Big Radius Pipes

Hi just installed V&amp\\;H Big Radius, fuek pack and V&amp\\;H VO2 on my 07 FatBoy. Getting poping&nbsp\\;when decelerating. Nothing major just curious if anyone else has also run into this and how they resolved it.
&nbsp\\;
Also has anyone had experience with installing baffles on these pipes, these pipes are extremely loud and getting the looks from the nieghbors. Looking at the Vance webpage does not appear to be any additional baffles available for the Big Radius pipes.
&nbsp\\;
thanks

Make sure you have the nuts tightened up that bolt the pipes to the head.
If you do you might need the firmware update for the PCIII from Dynojet.
I have the update if you want me to email it to you. Then you can download it to your PCIII.
PM me your email and I will sent it if you like.
I had a bad hesitation in mine when you snapped the throttle. The update cured it.

I have no popping out of my pipes

The decel popping is quite normal with this and a PCIII configuration.&nbsp\\; Get her dyno'ed and see what you end up with.&nbsp\\; As far as the neighbors go - Don't sweat it!&nbsp\\;

Ride Safe -

If your not running baffles now. That will cause the pop.
&nbsp\\;
Tell neighbors to go screw.

Installed the same pipes on an '07 Deuce.&nbsp\\; Immediately noticed loud popping on decel.&nbsp\\; Installed SERT and had the bike dynoed.&nbsp\\; Popping was reduced but not much.&nbsp\\; Had dealer adjust SERT tables.&nbsp\\; This helped alot, however I still get popping on hard decel.&nbsp\\; I can stifle the popping by engaging the clutch, but that's not an acceptable solution.&nbsp\\; I'll probably take the bike to another dealer with more SERT experience.

I put the 2 into 1 Big Radius pipes on mine and get a Lil bit of pop on decell and immidiately called V/H to see if I had the set up right w/ the Fuel pak and they told me lil pop on decell is normal. I had a friend check it out and he said the same.. I'm running great and thats all that matters to me..F the neghbors!!&nbsp\\;
