I bought Mac slip on mufflers that are pretty close to the original. They came with a sliding bracket but I had to McGuiver the original mount a bit to get it to fit. The ends of the cans were not dimpled to accomodate the axle nuts so they are very close to them. Some folks here do not like Mac, but I have not had any problems with them. They don't seem to get as hot as the original ones that were on the bike. One thing I like about them is that the end caps are removable. I had to use a muffler sleeve to fit them as well as a packing donut. These should be available at any auto supply parts store.

Thanks. How about using take-offs from a Harley?
Do a search for "Harley and mufflers" and you will find many on the subject.
They are relatively cheap and plentiful.
They are relatively cheap and plentiful.
When I installed the V&H SS system, I had to reverse the rear axle.
I used a pair of Dyna FLXHCRXYCRBRSGRGAETSTEREST mufflers on my XJ9.
They work great, but needed a bit of fettling. On their native bike they are matched to their respective cylinders, by the baffle plates within them being at different positions. I had to remove those and set both of them the same, using a temporary setup of washers on a threaded rod, to see where the best compromise for free-flow and noise was.
I ended up with a free pair of mufflers that sound reasonably good, and are not annoyingly noisy.
