I remember seeing a photo of the baffle out of the thunderpipe not long before xmas. If whoever it was that had that pic is reading this or if someone has a pic of the tpipe baffle or if someone could take a pic of the baffle I would forever be in your debt and someday would work out a way of repayingyou for your kindness

Thanks
Brett

Brett,
I believe it was actually a picture of the Bub long slash cuts. One other member took the pictures for me when I was doing some pipe speriments. I still have them at home I think if you want them. Or, wait a bit and I will get some when I take mine apart in Feb for the BB kit.

Pat,
Thanks for the reply mate. I gutted my Madaz stainless pipes mid last year believing that louder was faster. These glass packed pipes sounded really asthmatic so I dont want to go back to the original baffles, but after a 2000k trip with the missus during the holidays I have realised she is just too loud (the bike, not the missus) I think I have the pic of the Bub baffle as well - was it the one with the baffle laid out beside the pipe with a tape measure? If so that aint the one I was thinking of.
So if you get a chance when you do the BB kit if you could send me a few pics of the innards of the thunders that'd be great!
Thanks Mate
Brett.

Pat,

After all this time has passed since you have you Thunder pipes..what's your opinion? I have just gone the baffle removal route because of economics but still considering a move to Thunder Pipes.
