The V-Strike and accompanying mufflers can be configured at Dr. Jekill & Mr. Hyde’s website" - they are also available at various Harley-Davidson dealerships. The company also has systems available in black or chrome with choice of endcaps for the Harley Tri Glide and Freewheeler - optional extenders are also available.

With a simple push of a button the rider can choose whether to ride in the Dr. Jekill, Mr. Hyde or Dynamic mode. Respectively with closed, opened or half-opened valve. The system has a European type approval and is therefore road legal regardless of the riding mode.
