Default What are these?

I bought my Wide Glide a while back from a dealer. I love it. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of pipes these are? I haven't removed the heat shield yet but I can't find anything on them. Thanks!

They look a bit like Vance and Hines long shots. Is there any identification stamped on the heat shields?

They look like VH big shot staggered without the slashcut endcaps, to me anyway. I think Python had a version of their own also.

i would think you are unlikely to find anything under the heat shields...they are normally unfinished, unstamped basic pipe. the heat shield is usually where you find some sort of company stamp. they do look like vance and hines big shot staggered, but a few different companies make a similar pipe.

If there is not a V&H stamp on the heat shields they are not V&H pipes. Lots of other companies that make similar pipes, including some cheap knock-offs. Would be impossible to say with any certainty if there is no stamp on them.
