What do you mean? did you change something with the baffles?

More info please.

No need to change baffles unless using the previous style. I installed them and used the smart tune function on the race tuner

So Im back in the V-twin Saddle again. Just picked up a '14 SGS, and have heard a set of these pipes. Hope you don't mind a couple questions. You say No need to change baffles unless using the previous style. Did the first ones not have a baffle? I Love the sound but I don't want to annoy the other half on the back when she is with me. And last question for now (lol). Can I run these slip ons with just the stock header for now? or is it gonna run like crap?
