Taking the baffle out

Hi folks -

I'm trying to get a better sound out of the Savage.  My HD parts guy sold me a V&H straight shot muffler but it's hard to fit and it's way too loud!!!

Is it possible to take the baffle out of the stock Savage muffler?  Does it sound decent?

Get a sporty muffler and drill a 3/8 hole in the baffle, sounds great at speed but not too loud at idle. Real happy now with the way mine sounds. Modifing the stock Savage muffler can be a lot of work and it still won't sound right.

Get an after market slip on designed for the Savage like the Jardine or SuperTrapp. Don't wreck your stock muffler so you can resell the bike.
