    Welcome to our forum. You'll like it here. There's a lot of knowledgeable folks (I'm not one of them) that will be glad to help you out. I actually have the exact setup you describe on my '05 Heritage. I changed out the stock baffles on the Bigshots to quiet baffles. Still pretty loud but stock baffles were more than I could stand. I also have the SERT and had it tuned on a dyno. The quiet baffles complicate the tuning on the dyno but it was worth the effort. Good luck.

    I agree with Slim, this is a great forum with knowledgeable people around, and NO I'm not one of the knowledgeable ones either, but I like to add my .02 when I can. :D

    Wonder if ya could wrap some flexible tubing around an oil cooler and route it back to the holes in the saddle bags. I bet the ice water would keep the oil nice and cool. :D As the star of the Red Green show always says, " if the women don't fnd ya handsom, they should at least find ya handy". :roflmao: :roflmao:
