Motorcycle Repair: baffles, honda shadow ace, air fuel mixture


Question
is there a simple way to remove the baffles from the exhaust of a 750 honda shadow ace 2003if this is done would the carb need to be rejetted?
      
   thanks Ken

Answer
Hi Ken,

If the baffles are welded in place, the easiest way may be a plasma cutter or cutting torch.

I recommend replacing the exhaust with a quality aftermarket system.

Yes, the air-fuel mixture will need to be tuned any time modifications are made to the air intake, carburetion, exhaust, and some engine mods.

Respectfully,
