Default Exhaust Help

Thought i would remove my after market pipes on my 2007 fxdc for a while and stick my standards back on,when i put my standard pipes back on i noticed the baffle bores are both different on both standard pipes,so i place the smaller bore baffle pipe on the rear cylinder and the larger bore baffle on the front cylinder,just wondering is this the correct way round.

Call a dealer each muffler has a part number front and rear, best way to be sure.

Without knowing for sure, that is how I would have reinstalled them.

I'm sure there is a reason for two different size baffles, but I don't know why? Maybe has something to do with scavaging?

Many thanks for your help and ideas.
Cant see my local Harley telling me over the phone which way round the pipes go,but will give a try tomorrow.
Checked through the service manual,it explains how to in stall exhausts,but nothing about different bores and where to fit them.
Was just hoping someone with standard exhausts would take a look a let me know.
I thought with all the experts on here someone would know the answer.
Thanks Again
Wolfy
