Default Tooooo LOUD..need help

Hey all, I've got a problem.&nbsp\\; I have a 07SG and I am running V&amp\\;H true dual headers with Rush slipons with 1.75 baffle.&nbsp\\; I like the looks of the system, but it's too loud.&nbsp\\; It also has a pretty snappy sounds, not a deep rumble.&nbsp\\; I am thinking of switching systems altogether and maybe trying the BUB 7, but before I go and spend a tonne of cash, is there anything I can try to change the sound of the Rush?&nbsp\\; Different baffles or something?
&nbsp\\;
It's to the point the wife makes me push the bike down the driveway when I go out at night, so I don't wake the baby...and I have a long driveway.&nbsp\\; I'm not looking for whisper quiet, or stock, but something that at Idle isnt' too bad.
&nbsp\\;
What are the recommendations?

I would suggest that you try the HD Screamin Eagle 64985-07A slip on muffs.
&nbsp\\;
Quiet enough for neighborhood but have a deep throaty sound if ya get on the throttle.&nbsp\\; I installed the turn down tips on mine.

The new Vance and Hines Monster Ovals fit this to a tee.

Try the 1.5" Rush baffles before you scrap the whole system.
