Shouldnt really effect the bike, maybe a tad less back pressure but i dout that.
Noise is your main gain. invest in some earplugs if you havent already! |

I used to have a blueflame with two outlets.
When I removed both baffles the bike was loud but I'm sure the bike didnt pull as hard after removal.......was told it was somthing to do with less back pressure effecting the performance.

the baffle in mine definitely zaps power... the bike is a tad quicker with it out... so its in for damp rainy days and out for sunny hot days.

I think the bike will have slight BHP gains at the top rev range due to less back pressure, so it shall go faster if "you ring its neck" ... but the air to fuel ratio is not as it should be now so you may loose midrange power due to all that flow at lower revs & it'll backfire
it won't be running lean enough though to damage the engine with just baffle out, which it can do if you have it running real lean....engine can run really hot and it ant good! so watch it if you have a high flow air filter too, may want to sort with power-comander ..... Ow and see if anyone agrees with me beneith before taking this as gospel , ginda get mixed up with rich and lean haha Regards |
