Headers look stock, without seeing the full muffler it is a guess. Maybe just truck stacks on a standard system.

There is a tri baffle about 18" in from the back. Bone is helping me with the pics.

Hard to see it, but it looks like OEM Ragnar cut with truck stacks.

They seem kinda long. I would have liked to quiet them down.

The best way to fix this is to find a pair of used unaltered pipes, complete from the headers to the full-length original piggies.

I bought a bike that was "Ragnar" cut. Too loud for my taste, but it did sound good. The holes drilled in the OEM baffle were large enough to insert 3/ 12"x 1" perforated pipe into them. Strapping them with large hose clamps I was able to slip the truck stacks over clamps. I inserted 4" tips that had 1 1/2" holes, the same amount as the OEM 3/ 1/2" piggies and she sounds great. Quieter but w/a deep rumble. I get a lot of head turning and even compliments from some of my HD buds. Hats off to Mike (Tronerdog) who I asked a bunch of ??? to and had awesome patience. Here's a thread discussing "Ragnar" cut. Mike is the last post in it and has good info. http://www.valkyrieforum.com/bbs/index.php/topic,46082.0.html

Maybe I can cut 2" off the back of the pipes to shorten them and get some silencers from MarkT?

My experience is cutting chrome can be a challenge. Someone might have better results. MarkT has a great rep for quality products.

Cutting them off will only make them louder with more of a drone. Leave them as they are and get some silencers from MarkT, that's what I run and my pipes extend out past the bags also but sound great....low, deep rumble. I recessed mine a few inches so they're not visible.
