2006 ultra classic, 24k miles. picked it up earlier this year and the only mods i've done connected to the exhaust would be a set of reinhart 4" slipons and a cobra power pro tuner. bike has had roughly 800 miles since slipons added and about 400 since the tuner was added. came home from a ride last night and saw that my slipons were really not even as seen in the photo below.
does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this?
Not really strange. Flowing more out of the right than the left. You should be able to feel the difference. The slip-ons did not change this, only made it apparent to you.

it appears to be a stock headpipe from what i have seen from online photos of others. the left does have pressure but it is far less than the right, hard to guess but significantly less - maybe half or less? here are a few more shots.

Like previously mentioned, that is completely normal. With that stock headpipe you will get well over 3/4 of the exhaust coming out of the right pipe. Those head pipes are known to crack at the 'Y' near the head on the rear cylinder. Keep an eye on it and when it does crack either have it welded or switch to a true dual system to get the awesome sound as well as even flow out of both pipes!
