I've heard that on the '08s the left muffler is used as a resonance chamber and most of the exhaust flows out the right. In short, yours sounds normal.

Our Jackpot mufflers use an asymmetrical baffle system which uses the right hand muffler as the primary muffler. With this design you will see more pronounced carbon on the right muffler as it flows far more than the left. You should also find our fuel map to work very, very well. If you need any additional assistance just let me know.

That is the problem with the slash up slip ons using the stock exhaust configuration. Others have painted the inside of each slip on tip with high heat black paint, then you should not notice it anymore.
