    i run the big radius on my lowrider, with stock baffles thay are not that loud, i even removed stock and went with the bct thunder monster baffels and have had no trouble at all, like someone else all depends on throttle management.

    throttle managment is a .50cent word for "how you twist the wick",,,,or how hard you rotate the throttle on the righthand bar. some really twist it hard and therefore the exhaust noise is louder than someone that does it normally....hope this helps!!:)

    Hey, might as well enjoy loud pipes for now, that is before big brother comes down the new law, requiring lesser noise levels! Congratulations and enjoy the ride!
