I put them in a set of big radius as well. I’m not sure which side of the fence you stand as far as the plastic wrap goes. But, people kept telling me I’m supposed to leave it on. Well, I did that and will never make that mistake again. Went to remove them after a week or so, and the bond created on the pipe and fiberglass made them a major pain to remove. Once removed, there was a ton of the fiberglass left inside the pipe. So just my 2 cents 😂. Thanks for the comment, and ride safe 🤙
@@texasharleyrider7424 Ah yeah everything I've seen so far says to leave it on and it'll burn off, but I may remote it beforehand just to avoid that issue. Thanks for the heads up.
@@texasharleyrider7424 got the baffles out today, holy hell they were a pain. Not sure when they were installed but definitely they were all kinds of seized up. My quiet baffles should be in tomorrow and I can bolt everything back up.
@@texasharleyrider7424 Got everything cleaned up and new baffles installed, loving them. Slightly quieter but not too quiet and a lower tone. Definitely worth it but man it was a PITA. I ended up taking off the full exhaust and going at it with a wire brush wheel to clean out any residual mess to make install easier, I think it helped quite a bit.
I may be getting old, but I really dig the sound! The sharp exhaust note is gone, and they sound damn good! I have V & H longshots on my 97 Heritage, and I think the added restriction would boost its performance quite a bit. Thanks for posting this......I'm sold.
I went one step further and ordered the "super q" baffles for my '95 Heritage with V&H Big Shots. Should have them installed soon, if I can get the old baffles out!
I’m not sure of the model, but from what I can find the are Carlini evil apes. They were on the bike when I got it. These measure 14-15” but the website only shows a 17” 🤷♂️. Hope that helps you out some. Thanks for the comment.
I've got the Big Radius 2-2 pipes on my 04 Fatboy, I'm gonna put in the quiet baffles this weekend and see how it goes.

@@Bearleaux Yeah, they can be a pain, especially with the curve in them. Let me know how you like them.

Thanks for the mention! Bike is looking and sounds great...keep the vids coming.
Thanks, it’s getting there.

Definitely worth a shot. The sharp/high tones are what I like to get rid of.

@@kingkrimson8771 Be sure to post your results, good and/or bad as I'm really curious about their effectiveness. Seeya. ☮✌
Do you have a link to the particular baffles?
Here you go. They are sold individually.

@@texasharleyrider7424 thank you
Do these get ride if the off throttle coasting “jake break” sound?
I currently have no baffles and it’s so annoying
I do not think so, have a different set of pipes on currently, I would need to watch the video again to jar my memory 🤣
What bars do you have on there?
