There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Baffle on exhausts, size ?

You will need to take your exhaust apart and measure the ID diameter of the pipe. I've never seen an exhaust for the Ryker that has sections. I have a RLS exhaust and it is a solid unit w/ a 51mm baffle on the engine side. I have no access to the mid-section of my exhaust unless I want to saw it in half. And I ain't doing that.

Yeah, I just explained myself wrong, that’s what I mean, size for the baffle for the engine side
Is there any possible damage on using an engine side baffle ? Any advise on good ones to get ?

A db killer in the output is easier to install, easier to modify, etc.
Harm?
More open or no baffles equals louder.
Over baffling can end up with a wooshing or hissing sound like a 500 cubic inch Cadillac motor with the stock exhaust at full throttle.
But unless you close it off almost completely, like stuffing a potato in an exhaust, I can't see how there would be any harm.

In 1976 I purchased a new Honda CB750F, which had a 4 into 1 exhaust. It was a bit long to ride the bike off of a curb in front of my shop so I installed an aftermarket exhaust, which was too loud. I then welded a large fender washer inside the output, resulting in that previously described Cadillac sound. I reamed it out until I had the sound I wanted.

What aftermarket exhaust?
What is ID of exhaust tip?
Sorry to be of no more help, but with 82 HP from 900 cc, I was satisfied with the stock exhaust, even if that 82 HP takes 8,000 RPM (100 MPH) to achieve.
