Bafflle or what?

I just brought home a 20001 Shadow ACE, it is amazing but I already know I have to get rid of the Cobra Shot Guns. But doing so is not all that easy as you well know. I have to find a stock that fits, or baffle the cobra pipes. Then I think I have to re jet. Does anyone have experience with baffles. Hopefully it would be the easiest solution.

20001 And one Shadow. Is that a time machine?:)
Why do you NEED to get rid of them?
I have run my Cobra lo-boys shot guns baffled and un-baffled with the same jetting (stage 3) without any issue. If you put the baffles in, it isn't as loud. You may enjoy it better than you would with the stock pipes.
Try to find a set of baffles first. It's cheaper than replacing the pipes and you might not like the sound of the stock pipes (unless you like the sound of a Singer sewing machine.)

You'll need to measure the inside diameter of your pipes to determine what size baffles you need. I would highly recommend the KhromeWerks HP Plus baffles. They sound awesome, not too loud but give a nice, deep rumble. They're designed to provide good back pressure and still be high flowing for improved performance throughout the whole power band.

I have them in my Cobra LowBoys (on a 750AC) and love them!

What is a 'Cobra Shot Gun' ? Do you mean Drag Pipes? Is this bike a 750 or 1100 ACE?

My pipes are the Cobra Lo-Boy Shot Guns with added exhaust tips.

I have a shadow spirit 750 with V&H (baffles out). It sounds awesome but gets a little old on longer rides. I am planning on putting the baffles back in sometime during the spring with no re-jetting. We will see.
