Yep, that's where I got mine for the same price back in August. I'm surprised they still had any left. Unbelievable price!

Thats when I saw them was back in August and never got around to getting them, then I saw this thread tonight and just happened to go to DK and look and they had them again. Could'nt pass em up this time.

Love mine. Also bought a quiet baffle as well. It's a chambered design vs. a smaller I.D. hole. Big difference in sound volume too. I gained a ton of lean angle clearance as a side benefit vs. stock FatBob exhaust.
The only problem that I came across when installing them was after I torqued the front/rear flanges (on the heads), the "middle" mounting flange (lower support bar) would not fit right. I went ahead and mod'ed the mount vs. putting the pipe to head mounts in a stressful situation. Was no big deal.
BTW, The original baffle is NOT wrapped from the manufacturer. Wrapping the original baffle would soften the bark a bit if you wanted to do that. Easy to pull the baffle out. I don't think that they are as loud as a D&D but I still find myself "looking around" while in town before pulling the trigger so I toned it down with the quiet baffle. When I get my build done, I am going to dyno the bike with both baffles just for curiousness sake.

well, it sucks i missed the super deal, but i went ahead and ordered my bub7 anyway. I got it for $310 plus $40 shipping, which i thought was still a pretty good deal.

As is, I'm afraid to ride into town or pass anywhere near a cop. With my cams it takes quite a few RPMs (and decibles) to start off. Dang, I guess I shouldn't have gone quite as aggressive with the engine mods. I'm hoping to quiet it down without spending too much more.

I got mine last year just after the $192 deal for $300, same as you above. I am a D&D fatcat guy had them on my last 3 bikes. This pipe will do for now, will eventually go with the fatcat or maybe the Fuelmoto 2-1 when they come out with it later this year. Can beat this pipe for the $ spend only thing that would make it better for me would be better low rpm tourque.

Well, the Bub 7 with my new build is WAY loud! What is this quiet baffle that you speak of?? Also, how does that stock baffle come out for packing or replacement? I just can't see any way of pulling it out.

Hemi,
PN for the quiet baffles is 22-2151/1. I found them at J&P for $25. They are well built and are chambered. I "expect" to see a difference power/torque wise between the two when I dyno. It "felt" as though I may have lost a little hp and gained a little off idle torque. Won't know for sure until I finish my build and get it tuned. To give you an example, I can now hear the intake over the exhaust slightly during WOT with the quiet baffles. That is with a TC96 with TW-555 cams, SE intake, full 2-1 exhaust. I am in the middle of a 103ci, head port build right now. We'll see if it gets any louder.

To remove the baffle, there are 2 button head allen screws on the inside next to the swingarm. I grinded down an allen wrench so I wouldn't have to remove the can to get access. Pretty painless depending on age of pipe I am sure. I would suggest a "little" red lock tight on the bolts that mount the can to the rear bracket while you are there. I lost a bolt not long after I installed them. Haven't had any problems since I installed a "LITTLE" red.
Hope this helps.
