    Hi. Just thought I would give some background. I had a 05 Speed Triple with 12k miles about 5 years ago. I was massively disappointed. The engine hesitated when opening the throttle which was a pain. Every nut I removed was either corroded or snapped, it was as if the bike had been in the sea!. I sold it and had a few more bikes before getting a 11plate 1050 a few weeks ago . 2.5k miles, white with loads of extras including an Arrow low boy. Absolutely love it .. Can I get a baffle for it ?. Steve.

    Hello Steve, I'd say I'll keep an eye out for you if you get out my way but I guess with no baffle in the low boy I'll hear you coming anyway. :D
    Plenty on here have taken the baffle out of their systems, maybe somebody will be willing to sell you one.
