Default Need suggestions on quiet baffles

Hey everyone, i installed the V&H big radius 2-into2 and although i love the sound myself, i was kindly informed by a few local LEO's that once summer comes i will surely be ticketed, i live in a coastal community with a large summer population of elderly people, what i am looking for is to just tone it down a bit, i want some growl but not this much, any suggestions on a quieter baffle?

Sorry. Can't recommend my quiet baffles. I actually think the BCT Quiet Baffles I have now, are louder than my standard V&H baffles. Or atleast it seems that way. So maybe just some V&H Quiet Baffles will tone it down a litle bit for ya. I don't know. I do know what you mean about living near the elderly though. Talked with my wife about concerns on whether my pipes are going to get the complaints rolling in, and came to the conclusion of "f**k'em". We'll see how that goes.

V&H quite baffles won't do much as with most after market baffles. Might try these, I have heard they do quiet the pipes down, too much I don't know. They say 30 day unconditional money back guarantee if you don't like them.

I think this is the set you would need, but make sure.

I added the BCT Quiet baffles to my 05 Wide Glide with Big Radius 2 inot 2 pipes and it made the rumble lower and eliminated the harshness of the sound. Not quiet, but I like the sound.

The V&H quiet baffles will tone it down at idle and cruise speeds. Not much quieter when you get on the gas hard.

I didnt think the Big Radius 2 onto 2 had quiet baffles. They dont list them as an option on the V&H website. If they are someone please let me know as I may just get a set of 2 into 2 if they are.
