Clearly you've never lived in the Milwaukee area. For some reason, the

This happens by design. HD decided that they should make their mufflers
with removeable baffels. This means it takes about 15-minutes to go from
legal to horribly loud levels. For each baffel removed, the db level
goes up. I'm not sure you can actually create a straight pipe (one
baffle may not come out; I'm not sure), but based on the sound levels I've
heard, I wouldn't be suprised.
