Picked up a set of stock mufflers from someone over at R1-Forum.com, and over the course of the past two weeks I've worked on rebaffling them at work when I had extra time. I used A&R's race baffles, here are some pics and vids

Sounds really good! Why buy aftermarket pipes when you can just rebaffle and get that sound...

Yeah exactly, I couldn't justify $500 on slip ons when I could make it sound just as good or better with $130 worth of parts, and with a stock look.

looks damn nice. do you go to school out at amherst or umass or just live in the area?

i'll be finishing up my senior year there this coming year, and it was always a blast when i had my bike out there with me...

I guess the only reason to go with an aftermarket system is a little weight savings.

Yeah I went to school out here, but I'm done and only out here for the rest of the summer, then I head home to the South Shore.

The weight difference before and after was huge, even with just aftermarket baffles. Instead of say 5lbs they feel like 2 or less lbs.
