I want to try these to see if they will quiet my ride, but I don't know which insert is for which pipe.

Those look like stock mufflers, why not pick up a set of take offs. If you were closer we'd give you a set just to get them out of the shop.

I'm going to also ask in the Exhaust section (which is probably where I should have asked in the first place).

HAHAHA. You'll be lucky to get an answer over there. If you do, they won't know what they even fit.

Thanks for the reply rizzo. I didn't see your post before I made my next one (we were probably writing them at the same time and you posted yours first).
I may indeed try a set of stock slip ons, but i have these to try for free. I don't know a lot about them, but i don't think they're stock as i don't think stock mufflers have removable inserts (I could easily be wrong). The fellow who gave them to me thought they were American Customs.

If they fit in either muffler, it makes sense the long one goes on the right because it has a straight shot to the motor. Try it and see, you can always switch them if it sounds unbalanced.

Just put them in the pipes and see how they fit. If it’s wrong or doesn’t work it’s easy enough to reverse them.
