I think they're kind where you post in the wrong part of the forum and give too little information.  ;)

If its a fairly flat taper on the meg, with 2 holes on the end its probably a Hooker.. should have a reverse cone cap.. but that may be missing...

 If its a cylindrical muffler with a flared end, it probably Jardine..

 Hard to tell tho with what you gave us..

I have a pair of those hanging in my basement from my 550 I think....

Mine are slash tips.  They were chrome once but have been repainted with hi temp black.  1&4 exit on the left, 2&3 exit right.

They will hit the stock front fender when braking.  They sound mean with the baffles in.  I would like to know who made them myself...

And where did all the smart a$$es come from?  The OP writes a legit question and gets flamed from 3 or 4 others!  Really!!  I thought this site was above all that!!!

Back on topic - Our fine work computers won't let me post a pic but here's a link to one here on the site:

Well, we are also a buncha jokers...the question is legit, but it was originally posted in the wrong place, and I guess because he mentions twice that the outside pipes go to one side, we can infer that the inside pipes go to the other side, but that sort of poor wording and misplacement invites a bit of ribbing...try not to be so sensitive....we still luv ya.... ;D ;D

Followup,

I noticed in my post above that I do not a cylinder 2 but two cylinders 4  ::)  Should read ... 1 and 4 to one side, 2 and 3 to the other.

Much Better!! No doubt in my mind, those are CHROME pipes!!   ;D  seriously tho...have you looked them over for part numbers and /or manufacturer's stamping? especially around the hanger brackets...I can tell you they're not like mine, mine are black, the right two go to the right side and the left two go to the left side. The guy I bought my 750A from said he thought they were Jardines, but I haven't been able to find a mark on them either, so.....
