I've got a V&H 4:1 on my Z1000 at the moment.
Love the pipe but it's got the race baffles in which sound suuuperb but are seriously loud when really on cam.
Question is; where can I get standard baffles from as I lost my original one when I moved house? A UK supplier would be preferable if poss.
Cheers

Not in the uk but Z1 enterprises sell V+H pipes and Jeff Saunders who runs it posts on this site. The pipes are made in the US and are much cheaper over there than here. Have bought lots stuff from them and they ship stuff over quickly without ripping off for postage like some in the US.

Just looked on z1 enterprises and they have either sold out or it says do not stock this product anymore

I didn`t realise there were 2 different baffles available for the V & H, mine has a perforated tube that runs the length of the silencer which i use on the road with no extra packing around it, and to me it isn`t overly loud and sounds great.
You can wrap some exhaust packing material (the fibreglass type roll stuff) around the baffle and hold it in place with some lockwire, that makes it alot quieter, which i now have to do for Brighton to get it through the noise test.

What kind of baffle do you have at the moment?

Mines the same, keep the revs low through the villages and no problems; did go round the m65 access roundabout 4 times yesterday morning though, giving it some stick under the motorway bridges!!!
Love it
