Removing Baffle 2012 1200 custom
I am trying to remove the baffle on my new 2012 1200 custom sportster, all stock. Too many close calls, trying to be a little louder on the road without spending too much money that I don't have. I noticed the baffles aren't welded on the end of my exhaust, but I dont know how to remove them. Tried finding a screw on the underside of the exhaust but just saw 2 bolt heads. Any ideas on how to remove my baffles?
Any input is much appreciated.

The baffles are welded in place. There is a baffle plate the you can see with a flashlight down towards to middle of the muffler. You can drill a hole in the center of the plate. I would not go over 3/4" as it will not sound good with the stock slip-ons. I worked my way up to .700 holes and found just what I was looking for. I can sit at a light and folks don't roll their windows up because it is too loud, I can leave at 5am and not wake everyone up but when I get on the go juice it makes a nice low toned note that get's folks attention as I have taken note to turning heads.

to be honest loud pipes dont save lives , its BS , if someone doesnt see you with a head light on , then there not going to hear you with there radio playing , unless there in a convertable with the top down and your running drag pipes
buy some nice slipon mufflers off ebay and get a nice deep sound , i like Rush , but there is a wide range of styles and dB levels
