Guys for what its worth; I added Catless head pipes but kept my OEM setup just in case down the road state laws (here) start checking motorcycles. Another benefit for me was purchasing the exhaust system thru my HD dealer, having them install it and having them tell me they will still honor my warranty. I also went with '2 baffles and I may drop down to even smaller ones as everything is pretty loud now. I do have several friends that have de-catted their OEM pipes though and were happy with the $aving$.
