Its a straight pipe about 19" long. Its got a built in non-removable baffle - its not much of one, but theres one in there.

Yea starting the bike with the muffler cut off was loud.

If you keep the pipe at 1.25" throughout ... it will probably have a higher pitched popping kind of sound. The bigger the width of the pipe at the end .. the deeper the sound. Thats why if i had kept my GZ i probably would have swapped out for the pipe that you could 'wrap' the baffle to deepen it up a little bit.

This mod makes the bike louder, but if you pulled up to a straight pipe harley, you wouldnt be able to hear yours idle.

If you download the mp3 a few posts back ... you can hear what it sounded like on idle.
