Looks like a MAC megaphone competition baffle.

The MAC does look very similar. Here is a picture of the complete unit.

I have the MAC competition baffle on my dragbike. Wrapped in "rock wool" fiberglass mellows it a little and make it a lot less "tinny" than the standard MAC baffle.

We used to call those "nightstick stopper" baffles...
In the old days (when the Earth was cooling and we all rode 750s), if the bike was too loud and you almost got caught for street racing, the officer would stick his night-stick up the pipe to see "if it is too open". If his stick went all the way in, you got ticketed for "modified mufflers", which was illegal there...
See SOHC4shop.com for info about the gadgets I make for these bikes.

The demons are repulsed when a man does good. Use that.
Blood is thicker than water, but motor oil is thicker yet...so, don't mess with my SOHC4, or I might have to hurt you.

Thanks for the insight. That is interesting. If I could find a nice example for the opposite side, I would give them a whirl.
