gave the connie a bafflectomy today, method... 1' 1/8 hole saw, results... slightly deeper idle exhaust note, and I swear the throttle feels a little more responsive. Other than that no downsides that I can perceive. Mission Successful

Bafflectomy Done

I did dyno tests on a baffelectomy several years ago.
There was not a major change, but the result was better low end torque, smoother power band and mebbe 1-2 peak HP.
The Baffelectomy plot was almost identical to runs that I did (using Cobra F1S slip-ons).
Best of all, the the baffelectomy costs nothing.
The plot from my tests is somewhere in this Forum. Mebbe someone can find it.
Ride safe, Ted

Good to know there might be some small performance gains. Thanks
How much louder is this? Is it just deeper and better sounding, or is it louder overall as well? I wouldn't mind a better tone, and less tinny/pffft sound from the exhaust, but I also can't make too much noise when I leave for work early in the morning.
Not much louder until you really open it up but even then it's not offensive . I recall my stock exhaust having sort of a Jetsons whistle sound which was gone after the bafflectomy .
Thanks, that's a spot-on description as the Jetsons whistle sound is the thing that bugs me the most. I don't want anything loud, and I don't expect it to sound like my Aprilia V-twin or a crossplane R1, but the pfft/space car whistling sound at low speeds is just annoying. I think I'll give this a try in the next week or two.
