Has anyone done these modifications?

I am interested to know, and where would you find out local laws on baffles vs nonbaffled?

I know this one, but this is much more extreme than drilling a few holes.

all my dad did is took a drill and drilled out the baffels. it sounds pretty good.

oh yea. listened to the one on bikepower.net and it kinda sounded like a ducati monster 750 which imo sounds pretty good.

i took a 3/8" drill to the outer baffle, and a 1/2 in steel punch to the inner.
works pretty good. just be sure you do, properly. no way to cover up mistakes :dunno:  :thumb:
