Don't know the answer to your question, but that sounds like something someone planning on going to the Myrtle Beach Spring Rally would ask.

Wow, what a pain. Talk about "The Man" having his hand up your *** playing the part of a puppeteer.

california gets a bad wrap for cracking down on a whole bunch of stuff but we don't do state inspections and nobody gives a crap about how loud your bike is. Also, we do have to wear helmets, but the cops look the other way on novelty helmets, as long as you have one, it's fine.

That use to be my reason for visiting Myrtle Beach. Since the bike, the sticks have been neglected.

Is there even going to be a Myrtle Beach rally? Isn't that the one where the city passed all these "local" ordinances to essentially lock the bikers out?

Just as an FYI, I just looked up the Vance and Hines website and they claim that the quiet baffles will bring it down 2-3 db's.

I've got the straightshots with the quiet baffle, and a friend east of me on the forum here also, also installed quiet baffles. He had a db meter, and showed me the video of it...... I'll try to find it here in a few minutes....

eh, crap... I already deleted his email.

Hey JaronB!
