Thinking of riding without the baffles in.

My can has a BS mark, and no baffle, pretty good for homemade

my SV has a blue flame...with BS stamp...but no baffles!

keep revs low,dont ride like a ****...and the old bill are usaully kool about it.

I was riding at about 40 MPH in a 60 zone waiting for my mate to catch up.
Miserable t**t still stopped me.

haha you must have moody old bill mate, their too busy chasing crackhead gunmen round my way to bother with bikers

Baffles?

Is this a thread for poofs?

As others have said I wouldnt worry about it, my SV is loud, my TL makes your ears hurt and I've never been stopped even after sitting next to rozzas at lights and probably spilling their coffee Unless you give them a good reason to bother filling in all the paperwork involved they will not bother.

this was all done "to reduce fatalities on Derbyshires roads".
Havnt these people got lives?
He even told me they were out targeting bikes.

ruined my day!

What a pain in the ****! No doubt the casualties will be dramatically down this year - and they will take credit for it... Nothing to do with the lack of sun + consequent riding though oh no

Don't hack up your standard pipe - keep that for MOT's just in case its required or for police etc and when you come to sell. Save up your pennies for an after mkt job. Scorpions come in at about £120 - £130 with easily removeable baffle. carbon Can Co cheaper still but you have to drill out a rivet. So its not worth mucking with your stnd can. IMHO
