Those are not stock mufflers. I don't recognize the brand; maybe someone else can?

I just bought this bike and the owner said everything was stock which is what I was looking for.
Now you have me thinking.
Anyone else know? Thanks.

They look pretty stock to me.

Those are absolutely 100% the stock mufflers...

That being the case this baffelectomy should then work?
I do t want to completely remove the baffles and will only try drilling 4 holes in each to open up the sound a bit.
Worth doing and possibly ruining a good set of pipes?

My mistake; sorry.

It's a deceptive angle. I was able to read the stock notices embossed on the OEM pipes on the bottom of the cans. An easy miss.

I'll add to thread to let others know how I did mine and it was easier than expected and did the baffelectomy while the cans were still mounted to the bike.

I bought a metal cutting hole saw that was 2-1/8 diameter and 2.5" deep.
The diameter was the perfect fit and proceeded to drill away. A minute later this was the result.



Not bad if I say so myself.
Other side was done the same and then proceeded to use a long 3/8" socket extension to insert inside the cut baffle and started wiggling in up/ down motion and also circular motion.
A few taps with a block of wood onto the now loose baffle, a few more wiggles, and out it came.

From there I got my Dremel tool with a barrel grinding stone and cleaned up the metal to have it look like this. 5 minutes both sides and looks great.





Im pretty happy with the way it came out and again quite easy to do for the baffelectomy.
Hope this helps someone out. 🙏🏽👍
