I installed baffles on my V&H staggered short shots with them on the bike but it was some work to get the heat shields back on.

I think the smaller diameter is part of the reason the Rineharts like you have suck in the horsepower department. I tested some with no baffles, full baffles, a 1/4" bolt with 4 5/16 nuts on it, and a stock baffle cut in half. Removing the baffles was worth 7 hp, but the curve under 4000 was much flatter with the baffles in. With the baffles cut in half, it had the nice curve under 4000, and lost 3 hp on the top.
My advice is to cut the baffle in half and reinstall.

V&h baffles come out easy, one small screw on the side of the pipes and pool the baffle out done.
