Default Baffles

Ok I have a dumb question that has probably been asked before but can't find anything on the issue. Can you drill out the stock baffles on the 1200N without any repercussions? If so how is this done?

Check with your dealership before you do it.&nbsp\\; In some cases it will void your warranty.&nbsp\\; I had mine drilled out (just the back one in each muffler) and everything was fine.&nbsp\\; My dealer kept telling me "I can fix that for you"... which of course meant they wanted to charge me over a thousand dollars for a Stage One (my indy can do it for 300.00). I rode that way from probably late June of 07 until this spring when I put the Rush Slip ons on.&nbsp\\; My warranty wasn't voided.&nbsp\\; But again, I think it depends on the dealer.&nbsp\\; So many things seem to be an individual thing with them.
