Should come stock
I strongly believe these should come standard with the pipes I purchased prior. The pipes are beautiful, the sound loud, but the catch is my short shots just had a pop and higher pitch sound that I wasn’t expecting.
Putting these on made it sound 1000 times better. It’s a clean, classic, lower rumble without the soda can high pitched sounds. I love these!
Biggest problem with the baffle would be the fact one came in with rust. The other did not. I had to buy some work into it to buff out the rust and make it look clean again. And yes buy two.
Installing these for me was kind of a pain, so I would say buy these AND the pipes at the same time so you wouldn’t have to remove the heat shield at a later date.
Other than that. I love the way the bike sounds!

Great Sound But Still A Little Loud
The stock baffles were just ear shattering. The Quiet Baffle took the crackling loudness out. Great rumble when at speed & light throttle. Still nice & loud when accelerating. Easy to install once the outer heat shield covers were removed. The heat shields were challenging to remove. I had to remove the right floor board to get the lower one off.

Exactly what I wanted!
This product is perfect! It tones down the brash open pipe bang to a low, mean growl and it almost totally eliminates decel pop. Trust me, the bike is still wicked loud, especially when you open it up, and sounds very hot! In fact, initially, my partner said it sounded the same, but after going out riding, it was evident the sound was tamed down just right. Absolutely a must have IMO. My installation experience was interesting but overall should be easy.
What I did on my 1200XL Forty Eight with Vance and Hines Shotshots staggered.
Remove the heat shield by loosening up the pipe clams with a screw driver all the way and pulling them off. Next, you will remove the small bolt located on the inside rear on each pipe with an allen wrench. This is the tricky part, hopefully they don't strip (like one did for me). The extreme heat can cause them to become very difficult to remove. If you are lucky enough that they do come out, pull the old baffle out, pliers will help. Once out, take the new baffle and put it in, line up the holes, and screw the bolts back in. Replace the heat shields and tighten the pipe clamps. Done! Should be a 30 min project. If by chance you run into the same problem I did and have a stripped bolt, all hope not lost. Remove the entire pipe by unscrewing the bolts and unplugging the sensor. No need to unscrew the sensor from the pipe, just find the end of the wire and unplug it (much easier and won’t twist the wire). Once removed, get a drill and drill bit that is the diameter of the hole in the allen bolt, and start drilling. The tip of the bolt should pop right out. Then take a flat head screw driver, and from the inside of the pipe, pry downward on the bracket on the baffle the bolt screwed into so that any part left of the bolt is out of the way of the pipe. Then pull the baffle out and put the new one in. You will need to go to a hardware store and get new bolt. Take the one of the bolts with to confirm thread and size, then reassemble. Took me an additional 45 min to do that. Do not remove the plastic wrap. Install baffles exactly how they come out of the bag. Good luck!

Must have
The baffles included with the true dual pipes for my roadking were way too loud so I changed to the quiet baffles which are not quiet or too loud, they are just right and sound great.
For the money I paid for the true duals,Vance and Hines should include the quiet baffles with the pipes

Still too loud
Was expecting quieter, it barely toned it down, if I had to do it over, I would have saved my $90

Don't bother
If these things quiet down my Big Shots Staggered on my FatBoy, I sure can't tell. Overpriced, under performing.

what is the outside diameter of this baffle? The StraightShots HS I have are 2" inside diameter. Will these fit? Bike is a 2009 Sportster 1200 low.
BEST ANSWER: Yes they will fit. I have V&H straightshot slip-ons and they fit perfectly INSIDE the v&H baffle that came with the slip-ons. I did not wrap them and my Sportster sounds like a Harley now plus it increased back pressure perfectly so now it pulls really hard on the low end of the RPM's. With the V&H baffle it was way too loud and no back pressure. A perfect solution.

I have a 2005 Harley Dyna Low Rider with Vance and Hines Short Shots. The bike is CARBURETED. Can I add the baffles and not expect to re-jet or will I need to re-jet?
Will these fit with my V&H Cruzers? 2003 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Classic.
BEST ANSWER: Sorry, these baffles will not fit the Cruzers exhaust. They only fit the following exhausts: Big Shots Staggered Exhaust, Big Shots Long Exhaust, Big Shots Duals Exhaust, Straightshots Exhaust, Straightshots HS Slip-On Mufflers, Longshots HS Exhaust, Softail Duals Exhaust, Sideshots Exhaust, and Shortshots Staggered Exhaust

Do these baffles need to be replaced over time?
BEST ANSWER: Not the baffle, but I'm sure you'll have to wrap them again. That wouldn't be a big deal. I took mine on a 2000 mile trip and they were noticeably louder.

BEST ANSWER: I have the same modifications, but on a Dyna. I installed the pipes with baffles in, before the high flow breather and finally the download. You might want to contact your dealer to verify the need for a retune if you're adding the baffles last.
