Default Anyone used Thunder Monster Baffles with V&H Staggered Short Shots?

I've read great things about these baffles but am wondering how difficult it is to do the job for Staggered Short Shots on my X Bonz? Thanks.

The BCC baffles will give a lower more throaty sound to your bike. IMO you can't go wrong.

I have them and love them. They sound better and perform better then stock baffles and even better than no baffles.

It's this easy:

1. Remove Heat Shields
2. Remove allen head bolt holding stock baffles in
3. Pull stock baffles out
4. Drill 1/4" hole 5 - 6" from the exit end of pipe
5. Slide new baffles in pipes
6. Screw new allen head bolt into baffles through hole you drilled
7. Re-install heat shields
8. Start the bike up and try not to smile!!!!!!!!
