Default Cycle Shacks VS Rush Slipons

Hey guys,I currently have cycleshacks on my ride,2011 SGC,I"m thinking of putting new exhaust on next year,I've heard alot about Rush Slipons,are they better than what I've got now?and if I went with the Rush Slipons,what baffle should I get?I remember people saying the 1.75 would be the best,but the 2" baffle sounds good too,what's your thoughts.

I'm running the 1.75 baffles on my 2010 FXDC, and they are plenty loud enough for me. Very happy with how they look and sound. Had some decel popping after I installed them, but that is gone since I added an AC and a tuner.

I have used Cycle Shacks but have not compared them.
When you ask "are they better than what I have now?" that is a broad question.
In the case of a slip-on, I'd say looks and the noise they make would drive a purchase. Performance difference is probably not noticable.

Thanks,
Mike

I have Cycle Shack slip ons (no baffles) and love the sound and looks. No annoying popping on decel at all.

I have the rush slip ons with the 2.25 baffle. They sound almost the same as my brothers V & H header pipes. I love the sound but cruising on the freeway with the 6th gear they seem almost quiet.

I have Rush slip-ons with the 1.75" baffles. I also have an extra set of 2.0" baffles. The 2.0" are louder, but I prefer the 1.75". In my opinion, along with many other Rush owners, they sound great.

I just ordered a new Rush crossover full system, so once it's installed in the coming weeks, I will be selling my slip-ons and extra baffles. They are off a 2008 Fat Bob. The slip-ons were only used for 1200 miles and the 2.0" baffles for only about 200 miles. PM me if anyone's interested.

they are probably no better. IMO, look to a full exhaust system vs switching one slip-on for another.

I realize that,but the funds won't allow,I'm not even doing the A/C yet,but my wife has cobra's on her Streetbob and I like the looks and sound that they produce,my Cycleshacks were great when I first put them on,but now I want a bigger looking pipe and a more deeper,throatier sound,the cycleshacks just don't give me that.

Thanks for the replys.

Mike.
