Same here. I was out today and every two minutes I encountered another bike. 450 miles since getting my bike back last Sat. Everything seems to be good (at least for now).

Here's hoping the electrical gremlins have left the building!

I'm actually considering the Super Quiet Baffles.

I told him how much I loved the bike except for the Vance and Hines exhaust and how loud it was and the terrible decel popping I was getting. He walked over to the bike and looked at my exhaust and pointed out the exhaust has no baffles (DOH!).

I guess the previous owner liked a real loud bike and plenty of decel popping.

I actually may end up liking the exhaust after I get a set of baffles in there. A set of quiet baffles is on my list for sure.
Sorry man, but that's hilarious...

better yet if you don't mind spending a few bucks and want decent performance, buy a good 2 into 1 system. I love my supertrapp, even with all 20 discs has a pleasant note to it without eardrum breaking noise.

I'd like to get what I have working but if that doesn't work out I will definitely consider that. Thanks.
