| Go to my website and check out the article on modifying the stock exhaust. The instructions are for the Intruder, but the Maurader should be very similar, as the Maurader motor is a modified Intruder motor. Basically, you can drill holes in the baffles to increase noise, but if you remove them the bike will be obnoxiously loud and you will have to re-jet. http://www.bobhenneman.info/intruder.htm
