    flhxi getting a chirp from the pipes sounds like the right side. if they wern't stock I would go for the baffle, and I haven't declared a cracked weld or seam out yet. it is already in at the stealerhip on a recall for the regulator and speaker warranty, by the way it's 100% stock (at least the drivetrain) for another year. anyway lets here what you got.

    check the clamp holding the muffler to the pipe...make sure the "split" in the pipe is covered and clamp is tight!!!

    Also double check the rear pipe where they meet right before the muff they been know to crack on the inside close to the tire side

    Might be characteristic of the vehicle ! I ocassionally hear what might be described as a chirp from my pipes...could be just the way you are seated & how you have your head turned....I ususally only notice it when I've been cruzin for a while. As long as it doesn't blow up & maim me, I'm ok with it LOL
