Default Exhaust tips

I have bought another bike and this one is a bagger. The bike has fishtail tips on the exhaust and I think that they are pretty ugly. I am going to change the whole exhaust but I cant at the moment. When I took the 3 screws out to take the tip off it had just a short little muffler there. My question is that is there anything that I can replace it with?

I would like to take the tips off but I want somethin that doesnt make the end look bad. I am looking for somethin kind of cheap cause I will spend about 650 when I do my exhaust mid to late part of this next year. Any information would be helpfull thanks.

If you can determine Who made the muffler, I bet they offer other style tips to accommodate....

You might post some pics. Surely someone on here has seen your mufflers before....

This is just a picture I modified showing the tip. There are 3 screws that hold this tip on there and in side is the muffler that holds it all together. I hope this helps but if not let me no and I will take it apart tomorrow and take some pictures.

they look like SE Exhaust tips, you should be able to get different tip at an HD dealership.

I've got a set of slash cut and a set of the new black anodizied screaming eagle script tips (looks like rinehart tips)that will fit if those are the 3.5" mufflers. Send me a p/m if your interested and we'll discuss price.

Or just live with them until you are able to replace them!
