Vance and Hines Exhaust on KZ750E

Just for the heck of it, I made a short video and put it on You Tube at this link
When I was looking for sound files last year before I bought the pipe, I couldn't find anything, and there still isn't much out there, so I thought this might be helpful to someone.

The baffle had a layer of fiberglass fabric and a ~3/4" thick fiberglass batt rolled around that. I cut off enough that it wrapped about one time around. No wrap was a bit too loud - no baffle was way too loud:blink:

So THAT's what mine would sound like! Sweet.
Now if I can just find a clip of Mac 4-2's with turnout mufflers, I'd know for sure if they are what I want!
Wishful thinking on that tho!:unsure:
