Hello Peeps...Well I've just purchased my first Harley...she's a fine lookin' 2012 Softail Slim....flat black and awesome!!
I bought it in New Orleans and had it shipped up here to the Great White North. Can't wait til the weather warms up.
Unfortunately the city I live in has a by-law restricting the noise level on bikes and mine is sure to fail
My bike has Vance & Hines 3" twin slash slip-ons and was wondering if anyone could tell me if "quiet baffles" will help in "toning down" her amazing growl.
Any info is appreciated by this Newbie!!
What a coincidence ? I bought the V&H Slipon's for my bike and the ears are still ringing, just not use too it.
In regards to your question what I did was goto youtube and look at video's on V&H with and without the "quiet baffle" this should give you some idea of what to expect.
