It sounds awesome and loud. I'll need to wear ear plugs for my trip or the droning will cause me to go deaf for sure. Can anyone tell from these pics what Pipes I have on this? Thanks for any help ! Dave

Sounds like glass packs, I just wasn't sure. Wonder how they compare to the 6 into 6's. Thanks

Sweet ride. Thanks for your help. Just got this bike used and am trying to learn all I can about her. Previous owner has done a lot to her, but I got it at a dealer where he sold it on consignment and haven't met him yet to pick his brain. Thanks for the help. Dave

They look like Viking pipes. If the headers are jet coated and look like dragster headers, they might be and if they are you will love them.

Take a picture of the headers, which will tell the tale.  Viking pipes have equal length headers and are not shaped like any other Valkyrie headers.

I am thinking these are not the viking but here are the pics for you gurus to come to a decision. Thanks for your help. Only stamping I see is on the one tube ( AJ-472 USA )

Could they be M2W pipes ? http://www.horseapple.com/Valkyrie/Valk_Products/M2W_Exhaust__System/m2w_exhaust__system.html

To me, they look like Ragnar cut stock pipes with truck stacks.

That was what I was thinking also, but there is someone out there modifying stock systems also that looks real close to these.

All I can remember about him, was his wife was very delicious looking in tight fitting clothes.

What you have there is a set of stock pipes, that have been cut up and truck stacks installed instead of the original OEM covers.  It is a homemade job. (and relatively common)

The guy RJ was refering to is Mike (Viper), but that isn't his work.  He cuts the stock cans apart, removes part of it, then welds them back together.  Whoever did these cut the piggies off, then cut out the rear baffle.
