Need exhaust info

I have an '08 FAT BOB and have been looking into getting better sound from my exhaust. A friend told me about a bike just like mine that had a great sound. He asked the owner what he'd done to it because he had stock pipes on. His answer was he removed the baffles from the stock pipes. My ?'s are. Will that void my warranty? and How will that affect my bikes performance? Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...

I'm guessing it'll probably can your warranty, although dealers in the 1990's were doing it for customers on carbed bikes.

Secondly, you're running on the lean side now, so deleting any backpressure isn't in your favor, but it won't hurt anything, as long as you still have a stock airfilter.

I just banged out the baffled cap on a 2008 Rocker 3 weeks ago, and it sounded like a new bike.

This is the mod you want.....no more then this: Baffelectomy Stage-I
