Default Road King stock slipons

Got a set of RK factory slipons from the dealer and when I got home and looked up the tubes, they are completely different. one of them has a closed looking baffle and the other one is open almost all the way down the slipon. Is this correct or did he sell me slipons from two different motorcycles? I told the salesman about it and he said thats how they are. Thanks for the help.

That is how they are.
Right and left exhausts are not equally balanced.

Closed one goes on the left side facing rear, the open one goes on the right side.
