Default bct baffles
I have v&h short shots not really digging the tinny sound of the stock baffles. was looking for any input on the big city thunder baffles or the qq baffles and how they sound.

I put a set of BCT baffles in my 2 into 2 V&H Big Rad's and I wasnt happy with that either. If you want to try BCT's just take your baffles out and weld a washer on a screw into the pipe because thats all they are. I ended up selling the V&H because i wanted a deeper tone and couldnt get it no matter what I did. Sorry to **** in your oatmeal but that was just my experience. the short shots may be different.

Quite baffles from V&H will give you a deeper, throatier sound, a little quieter at idle. BCT also makes the quiet baffles but I ahve never heard them in person.

I have the BCT Monster Baffles in my V&H Straightshot Slipons. They sound awesome. Deep and loud. The standard V&H baffle was tinny.

What is the part number or whatever for the BCT baffles for the short shots? Or are they all the same?
