How long did you have to wait for it !

I like the akro and may treat myself to one as I went with the Remus can and its very nicely made but even with the baffle in when you give it the beans its fecking noisy and doing my nut in or I'm getting a old grumpy cnunt .

What a work of art! bike porn that is.

I had the baffles taken out of mine by the dealer, but they were easy to remove. Here's a picture without them (looks much better without IMO)

And the sound in some of those tunnels in Europe was EPIC!

Is there much difference in the volume with the baffles removed?

I've not ridden the GS with the baffles in, but my other bike is much louder with the baffles out, so imagine it would be quieter with them in.

 

[GC6269]

That's what I'd normally think, but they just seem to be collars, so I'm I'm not sure how much difference they make.

 

[Elvisto]

I left mine in,

It's noisy enough,
