We did it to the V & H on my buddies Road King and it sounded horrible without them. It was so shrill and tinny that we rode only 2 miles before coming back to the garage to reinstall them.
They are held in by the 3 screws on the outside of the pipe that hold the end cap on and then you can extract them.

They look like Twin Slash Rounds, if so, there should be two screws on the bottom side of each muffler. After the screws are removed, you will need a slide hammer with an expandable end. Slip the hammer end inside the baffle, expand it, and start banging.
I removed mine without the slide hammer, but I don't recommend it. It was a pain in the butt. Wait until you have the right tools. Otherwise be prepared for an hour of frustration.

I have V&H mufflers as well, and they sound great, but I wanted to see what they sounded like unbaffled. So I took the baffles out and rode 10 miles into town, filled up, and rode the 10 miles back home and put the baffles back in. Sounded awful.
