Default Baffled!

Thinking my Yoshis are too loud if thats possible, without the baffles in, and worried about the fuzz pulling me over, so questions is do you ride with baffles in or out? and have you ever been pulled for not having them in?

Baffle always out, no bother in 7 months since Fuel can put on and several visits to Wales and Derbyshire in that time

My can doesnt even have a baffle so always baffles out. I dont fancy drilling it to fit an aftermarket one either. Never been pulled for it but i always dip my clutch and roll past coppers around town. Did get some odd looks from a bunch who were trying to move some gypsies on one night though. they stopped what they were doing and looked to see who that noisy bas*ard was

It's never been in and never will be, i've had a couple of plods stop and look before when i was in the town riding past but i don't know if it was a "wow nice bike" look or a "take his registration" look.

I imagine he had probably committed another offence.

I thought the worst they can do is give you a "vehicle rectification notice" and a £30 fine, and some have started bringing in some wierd ASBO type wrist slapping system as well?
