Another Happy Debaffler + Kury ISO Grip

I picked a sweltering hot day in NJ to wrench... successfully debaffled my Nomad. The first baffle came out without much ado... the second one, however, kicked my a_s! :(" title="" border="0"/> I wound up borrowing a riding buddy's monster drill, he's a plumber; it sliced through like butter- but I nearly pulled a muscle.

I also got the Kury's on... great grips, a nice hefty diameter and feel! I forget to order the longer screws with my Dennis Kirk order, as it's needed for the throttle boss & accent ring.,

Tomorrow will be a hot, and rainy day... I'll attempt to install the Cobra Fi2000, Baron's tach, tank & fender bib. Perhaps the Stebel horn... sounds too aggressive for one day?

Thanks for hearing me out. ;) PEACE!

A shout out to any armed forces veterans here, THANK YOU for your courage and honor, allowing us to live in freedom in this great country of ours. Thank you!

Glad you managed to do the debaffle and the grips. Sounds like you have a lot more to do.

I am retired military and thank you for thinking of all the veterans.

Sounds like you have the "mod" bug. Nice additions to your bike. Thanks for the shout out to us military veterans.

I had mentioned doing a debaffle to my loud pipe hating wife. She asked me not to. During the dead of winter 2008 I went to the shop did the work. She has never noticed the extra rumble. I got the sound I wanted without any domestic violence.

Glad to hear you pulled it off Wheelie and your wife is none the wiser.

The sound is really RIGHT ON for me... I have cobra's on my M50 boulevard, and they SHOUT, SCREAM, & RUMBLE. The debaffle has a nice mellow, "throaty" deeper note... won't do a whole lot for the "Loud pipe saves lives" argument.
