Default 2005 FLH exhaust note

Helping out a friend how just got a 2005 harley davidson electra glide ultra classic with a champion trike kit. It is a used bike with 6,000 miles on it. The issue is the exhaust the look like stock but sound like aftermarket. The are louder then most stock exhaust I have ever heard but there is no name to be found on the pipes.

Could be American Custom exhaust or just drilled out baffles.

Looks OEM stock but somebody has messed with the baffles in one way or another.

I have the American Custom mufflers, they are factory HD mufflers that they convert by removing the baffles and reinstalling a removable baffle that is held in by two fasteners in the tail pipe opening. I am sure those are not American Custom.
