Baffle change
leave heat shields on
remove slash tips no brainer
Get large slot screwdriver try to get between pipe and baffle make a little burr
Get some long nose vise grips spray some WD 40 or something in for slide
Grap on pull

I used a little more tape on the baffle fabric so it slide in better
It burns off

I ran the quiets and went back to the power baffles on my V&H Big Shots. I guess I like it a little louder.

I paid $60 + tax at the dealer. Just installed them in my Straight Shot Slipons and took it for a quick ride and they sound great, worth the $60.
