Default baffle question.

I have v&h big radius on my bike now. I don't feel it's loud or deep enough for my taste. Anyone have a link to a better baffle for what I'm looking for? Also how hard is it to change the baffle's out? Thanks in advance.

I'm a newb to working on bikes. What is necessary to change out baffles? Any special tools required? Where can I pick these up?

Lol. Thanks. I was curious if you needed some type of puller to get the baffles out or if they come out easily. I've always worked on trucks. Bikes are new to me.

either some torx bits, allen keys or bits, a ratchet and a little mechanical common sense. 8*) too easy.

You have to retune after you change out the baffles right?

I don't think so. I went from my se stage 1 air cleaner to the se heavy breather and didn't re-tune. I already have the stage 1 download and just bought a set of the xieds also. Hopefully that'll do. So does anyone have a part #?

Baffle removal from VH big radius are a pita. Not like other pipes due to fitament and curve. I thought mine were tacked in it was so hard to get them out esp. the top one. Good luck.
