Also does anyone recognize the brand of pipes in the top picture of Hutch08's post? I'd like to look around their website...
Those first pipes are for a custom build by RSD, http://www.rolandsands.com/wp/2012/0...ster-sportster

As for the pipes on that bike above, I have no clue where their from. Somethings telling me their not one-offs though, I have seen the exact set on numerous bike from different Japanese builders including Hidemo, CrazyOrange, Easyriders, etc... I just can't find who sells them!

But I did find this...
This guy used a universal slip-on cone muffler from, http://www.coneeng.com/motorcycle_components.html




Used it with a factory Rinehart 2-1 head pipe. If it wasn't for that "mid section" I would rock this pipe:

I personally like Super Trapp's I found this set on Ebay for $120 a few years ago. These pipes are the King of Grunt on the bottom end.

I wish this style pipe was made for a rubber mount.

Something like this, but smaller:

I know its off-topic but... who makes that seat? It looks great.

Not sure which style you're referring to but they are. If you are talking about the supertrapp setup look into the Storz Performance/BUB exhaust for sportsters.
