Good luck with your decision.

No baffles in mine. They sound good, but not to loud. I think you'll be happy.

Here's a picture of my 2013 with fishtails next to my brothers '86 with fishtails. Neither one of us run any baffle what so ever. My bike has the cat still installed, the other bike was built LONG before cats on bikes. So he's true straight pipes. Both sets are the cheap (under $150 delivered) ebay fishtails. If your running no cat in your 2007, you might want to think about some $10 ebay baffles as well. IMHO, the bike will just run better. And for 10 bucks, try it both ways. My 2013 I "THINK" are 31's but could be 33s, and the '86 ARE 33's. Both bikes sound awesome. Just understand BEFORE you buy true fishtails.... they sound like fishtails. They don't sound like any other system. They sound like fishtails. Its a very unique sound. Now, the sissy, overpriced mufflers with fishtail ends are a different story all together. But true fishtails have a very unique sound. Youtube it before you buy. They are a true love it/hate it sound.


Here's a quick sound clip of my 2005 with completely stock, un-catted, un-baffled head pipes and a pair of ebay slip on fishtails:


And of course my '13 with my Brothers '86:

They are loud and have a distinctive sound. Mine are straight pipes and got them from Sampson as I recall.

I run the 33" fleabay specials on my '14 Limited. I love the look and it sounds great. It is definitely a unique sound but it's awesome!
