I've thought about pulling them out of my stocks. Is this a bad idea?

RE: Pulling baffles
Here’s what I did when I had my 05. I pulled the baffles out and didn’t like the sound. It was too tinny. The loss in torque was obvious as well. I cut the tube part of the baffle right behind the indented part. (about half way) Then I reshaped the end in a half moon to keep some back-pressure. I put them back in and it was a whole new bike. The sound was loud and crisp, but not too loud. I noticed a big difference in performance on the top end, and still kept good low end torque. Remember, it’s a trade-off, more flow equals higher, faster revs, at the cost of loosing low end torque.

RE: Pulling baffles
They're easy to remove...My opinion? the bike's gonna lose power and sound loud but annoying.
Check out "ThunderMonster Performance Baffles". Put a set in my Straightshots and they sound and perform excellent.
