Default Rush Pipes

Anyone have any experience with Rush slip on pipes? I'm thinking of putting a set on my '05' Road King Custom fuel injected. This is the brand that the local HD dealer is pushing in a big way.

I currently have some screaming eagle slip ons which I really like the performance but these pipes are baffled and sound like sh%&. They are not much louder than stock pipes and probably sound worse.

I do not want to give up performance, or spend a ton of $ and the Rush sound pretty good.

Also was wondering if I will have to re map if I make this change.

Thanks

I have had the Rush 2.5" baffles for two years and 10,000 miles on my '05 Ultra.NO REGRETS and I can still hear the Hogtunes at 85 mph!

IT SOUNDS LIKE A HARLEY (not a tin can and not obnoxious either).

My advice, don't waste your time (like I did) on 1.5" vs 1.75" vs 2.0" vs 2.25" - just go with the 2.5" - period.

Not yet. My bike is running great, but I think I will have it retuned in the next month or two just to see how many more ponies I can squeeze out.I have 3900 miles on her so I may wait untill the 5000 service.

If you dump the Se's you will definately feel the difference in added performance. The sound is nice and deep, allot louder but you won't need ear plugs!

Rush all the way (2.0 baffles)! Just to ease my conscience... I did the sert and dyno. Didn't want to "burn" anything up. Now I can rest assure that everything is right in the world! Even though it cost me almost $900.00!!!
