What exhaust is this?

This is the exhaust that is on the valkyrie interstate I purchased. Can anyone tell me what it is and what size of jets would be recommended? It is running rich and I am getting 32 mpg.
Thanks

Looks like it might be Jardine.
Need to play with your needles instead of jets.

Looks like the same I scored on E bay, I chopped the mufflers off (they were only an empty pipe)
Added a pair of 1 3/4 x 12 Hotdogs and have not re jetted, have yet to get it on the dyno to confirm
miuxtures but do not expect it has changed much.
Adding those pipes should only help lean an already rich running bike off a bit.
Would worry more about the condition of the air filter.

Thanks, I installed a new honda air filter and rebuilt the petcock hoping that would lean it out, so I'm sure it's been re-jetted.
I'll have to do some research on how to adjust the needles.

Look in shop talk under shimming needles.

I know what the problem is. Your tire is worn out. You have a huge flat spot in the middle there.
