EditorAll the California beach communities ticket for loud pipes. Keep the RPM’s under 2K when cruisin by the coast. If you have the Samson Desperado pipes you can install baffles. If you have the 2-1 Area 51 pipe you should repack the baffle. The 113’s don’t like baffles and will start to load up and run hot. Take the baffles out after you get the ticket signed off.

Administratoryes… I was pulled over in Huntington Beach but my guy picked the illegal helmet to cite me. Did you get a fix it ticket or do you just have to pay the fine?

SubscriberThank you guys for the fast response had a lot going on today… i believe i have the desperado pipes but i dont see how you can put a baffle in them? when i was pulled over that was the only thing she stoped me for. i was reading about the sb-435… and it was saying that i needed to be pulled over for doing something wrong like speeding… she said she didnt need a DB tester, she said that i would have to prove it to the judge. i would have to take my bike to a place where they test them but she had no clue where to have me go. CA is a pain in the ASS! and i have my bike registered in AZ if it helps any.
Thank you

AdministratorThat sucks all the way around. We made a 2 into 1 pipe that had a baffle and was legal. (I don’t have any left.)
One thing to try is a any old Vengeance, Big Dog or Ironhorse dealer. All the bikes came with legal pipes and the dealers would take them off and sell other pipes. You may find a used legal set in their take-off parts bin.
