My '07 Electra S.E. slip on's seem to be different than yours. Mine are held in by the pop rivets (I have screws), and don't have the bolts in the end. I suggest removing the slip on's and drill out the rivets and remove the end caps. Then you should be able to tell if the baffles are held in by the bolts. If you notice photos in the att., you'll see the small end is slightly flaired. This flair is pushed onto the inlet end of the muffler and requires a Sharp blow from a HARD object like a jack handle or piece of pipe. A broomstick won't do it.
If your baffles are like the ones pictured, don't cut any off length, instead drill more holes, or open the bent down piece (looks like a flute opening). My packing is attached to the shell of the slip on, not the baffle itself. Did I mention, the baffles are hard to break loose?
