Default 2016 Softail slim exhaust color

Original owner at a 1000 miles put rineharts on and se airfilter kit with SEPST. and dyno tuned now have 4000 miles on it. Runs great since day 1,but my rear exhaust end is cleaner than the front. Little soot from front cylinder,but the rear shows very little.front and rear plugs look identical even though I am not a fan of looking at plugs to determine jetting or fuel injection. The only thing I can think of is the rear cylinder pipe is shorter than the front since the front is longer the burnt fuel mixture has time to cool down before exiting and the rear cylinder gets a little hotter than the front because of restricted air flow. Anyone else notice this with their bike.?
