I like the Big city thunder quiet baffles I put in my VH pipes. Here's video clip of before and after.

Sound doesn't do justice in video almost sounds the same but the Big city baffles give it a deeper mellow sound.

get the performance baffle;it will work with what you have now,& will allow all engine growth up to, & including the 117ci.

On a stage 1 bike, anything more than a quiet baffle is overkill and is going to cost you low-end torque. My 103 makes 116/116 with a quiet baffle. The baffles are interchangeable, so if you ever go bigger, you only need to swap the baffle.

Drew, any tuner worth his salt can get the dip out. The quiet baffle is what the majority of Fatcat owners should be running, as the bigger baffles are killing their low end. On my build, I might be leaving a few horsepower on the table with the QB, but I'd take a beating down low if I was chasing a number.
You do not need to make noise in order to make power. Especially on a stock motor.
