Default Baffle sizes?

With all the different baffles I was curious as to what size do you use on your bike? I am using the Rush 1.75 right now
and am going to try the 2.25. I am curious to know what sizes are offered with other makes (V&H) (Cycle shack) (Rienhart) etc.
What size seems to give best all around performance? I am riding a 07 FXD and liking every bit of it for sure!!!

The outside diameter measurement of the baffels (like 1.75")is to match the inside diameter of your pipes. The length of the baffels will determine the amount of sound and restriction.

Thanks for the reply ReeseSS---I believe your right on!!! as the more I thought about baffle sizes and looked into this a
little more I relized that there are many sizes and lengths for sure. Guess I asked a dumb question! I live in a small town and just
need to get out and listen to some other harleys. I will never learn enough! hehehe!
