I use the baffle with a slight mod so its half way between the two. Out was too loud for me.

Out. Baffle has been in twice, but that was only because I was returning from work late at night, so didn't want to wake the neighbour,,but seeing as he has been doing DIY up till 11pm lately,,the baffle will stay out now.

Will only go back in for MOT.

Baffle is under my seat, so can be put back in if Police say anything,,which they haven't yet, as I ride at a sensible pace in built up areas etc.

Only put them in for the MOT.

Even got stopped for speeding in an area they were doing speed checks "relating to noise levels of passing traffic", and although he looked round the rear of the bike, he said nothing about the lack of baffles.
That said, he was on a police motorbike, so may have turned a blind eye.

I don't understand the point in keeping the baffle under the seat, if it's not in and they want to fine you then they will. How is it going to help?
