OK guys, here is the scoop on these pipes:
They do not come with baffles.
They are not available with the "serrated" headers.  :(
I cannot determine how loud they are.
Having said all that- I have decided to order them for my Drifter. They just look too damn cool and I think they will look gorgeous with Singh's saddlebags.
The website says they are OK to ship to California and will take 2-3 to get here. Then they have to pass Customs.
Wish me luck! Any advice or observations at this point are welcome-
Chris

Good deal. I was corresponding with WeBike but if you're able to communicate with the manufacturer then that's even better.

Let us know what you find out!

I am researching this exhaust; they would look perfect on my ongoing bike project.
I have e-mailed the owner of the company and asked him about baffles, if they are available with serrated headers, and what jets they recommend.
I will report back when I receive a reply.

I like the bazooka tip exhaust. Looks like there is definitely something inside the muffler.

I can't find the thread, but someone posted a red 800 with one of these exhausts on it recently. I gave the opinion that is was a mix of vintage parts and custom made. It was obviously one of these American Dreams exhausts....with the corrugated down pipe heat shields. Anyone know who's machine that was?...or was it just dragged across from images on the web?

IMHO, I spent more on finding a roadhouse and getting it right. These exhausts, especially if they are stainless steel, look like a reasonable deal to me if the price posted is with free shipping....and you can confirm it fits the 800.

Merry Christmas...need to go find the cheer...

Some really interesting stuff on their site. I like the gatling exhaust, And they have seats!

Further to the question if the muffler is baffled, are the baffles removable; if so a body could 'tune' it more to their taste.

I have also seen this site and posted it in another discussion recently. What intrigued me was that some of their exhaust systems are stainless steel. Could not determine if this one was. The design is nice and looks good installed. The price not unreasonable for a complete exhaust.

If you can communicate with the seller, I'd ask if the muffler is baffled, so you have an idea about decibels if that matters. Beyond that and considering how hard it is to find something, seems worth the chance.

The alternative is custom fabrication, which I can't believe with the right shop, would come out reasonably priced.

It looks like the company actually makes quite a bit of kit for the Drifter. Their vintage pipes are pretty nice looking but some of the designs are a little too out there for my tastes (of course, all I can really do is look at the pictures):
