Stage 2 Baffle Mod

EDIT: Since learned this is stage 2. Stage 1 is drilling holes. Stage 2 is removing first set of baffles.
Removing the first stage of the baffles in my exhaust on my 2007 Yamaha Roadstar stock exhaust. Made a HUGE difference!

Best video I have seen, I hope more people find this. (Pro tip: put drill in reverse) 👍

[@bobbylobello9627]

if anybody has watched this video , if you have an air comp and air chizzle it works way better and faster on second plate

[@coutaclouds2838]

Good video, definitely doing this to mine. Where did you get the visors for your indicators? Haven't been able to find them.

Came on the bike

[@robertoalvarez5281]

Did you have to re-jet the carbs after removing the baffles? Any backfiring after that? Thank you,

[@JasonJohnCowart]

No rejetting and no backfiring

[@big_red_machine3547]

Mine certainly needs to be re-jetted. It started backfiring like crazy and running poorly after the mod. I also need to take the carbs off anyway and clean them in my ultrasonic cleaner. Not sure which jets I’ll use yet

[@joshsutcliffe6099]

I have some vance and hunes lomgshots with no badfles and it was wayy too loud. I went back to oem but its too quite. Wonder if this is a good in between sound

[@JasonJohnCowart]

i love how mine sound full, but not waking the neighborhood at the same time. just a nice rumble

[@joshsutcliffe6099]

​@JasonJohnCowart omg I just did this and it sounds amazing. Absolutely love that low rumble. Sounds amazing!

[@CristianZ54]

Hello Sir. tell me please... This roadstar is fuel injected or carburated? and the final sound is moderated or it may wake up all my neighbours bcs i dont wanna disturb too much. thanks!

[@JasonJohnCowart]

07 is a carb model. You get a rumble, but not deafening. I am in a neighborhood and it is sufficiently loud but not a bother.

[@55awest]

Did you lose any performance??

[@JasonJohnCowart]

none at all

[@COLORADO__SUBURBAN]

How are the stock baffles held in?

[@JasonJohnCowart]

small tack welds

[@COLORADO__SUBURBAN]

@@JasonJohnCowart do you know the inlet size of the baffle? I’m thinking a hole saw just big enough to fit inside and break the welds loose

[@JasonJohnCowart]

@@COLORADO__SUBURBAN I used a 2 inch metal hole saw.

[@joshsutcliffe6099]

Wow

[@jimwilliams2327]

Is this a 650 or 1100?

[@JasonJohnCowart]

This is a Roadstar. They only come in 1600 or 1700. 1600 til 2004, 1700 from then on. You are thinking VStar. They come in 650 and 1100. In the video is a 2007 RoadStar 1700.
