Remus Baffle In or Out?

[Donk]

Put a Remus slip-on on the TTSE.  Tried it with the baffle in, it sounded about the same as stock and seemed to have improved and smoothed out throttle response.  Took the baffle out, not much louder but again a slight improvement in performance or at least I imagined!  I have always understood it to be that as long as you leave the cat in place the O2 sensor can adapt the F/A ratio without a remap or adding a power commander?  Emailed Remus and asked and their response was a disappointing,"try it and see".  I don't have access to a dyno.  Does anyone know for sure if by pulling the baffle I am making the bike run too lean or if it is ok?

I had the baffles out for a while and performed the adaptation reset procedure. It ran fine without any sign of lean running. But I found the noise too loud at higher rpm and decided to modify the baffles by shortening them about an inch. Nice deeper sound and only slightly louder compared to the OEM can.

Adaptation reset procedure?  What is it?  Where do I find how to do it?

Search is your friend!
But essentially it works like this:
Start the bike from cold but do not touch/switch/move anything. Let it idle until the cooling fan cuts in. From that point let it idle for 12 more minutes. After which switch off. Upon restarting the adaptation will be reset.

i took mine out from the beginning since the remus dyno chart showed an extra 4 hp with it out.  i love the way it sounds and the engine and my radio are still louder.  love the burble!  sounds amazing at 5000 rpm.
