Hello!  I'm a new member from Minnesota.  I just bought a 1998 Valkyrie Tourer.  It has Dragon Exhaust (I think), the guy I bought it from was the second owner and he wasn't sure who did the pipes, but it did come with removable "baffles" that are original Valkyrie baffles cut down.

So I bought the bike about 150 miles from home, drove down, gave him the cash and rode it home.  Without the baffles, it's TOO LOUD for me.  I'm coming off a VTX 1800 Retro/Spoke with 3" HK Big Straights and I'm sick of loud motorcycles.  The Valkyrie is a different loud, but I get a lot of resonence when driving down the highway.  I slipped the baffles in the pipes and took it for a ride last night.  Now it's too quiet  Undecided.  Has anyone drilled out the block off plates inside the 3 little pipes on the baffle in combination with glasspacks?  I want it a little louder when you crank on it, but I want it fairly quiet riding down the highway.

I would appreciate any feedback you guys have!
