Both are good but I tend to like V&H a little better...Just something more appealing to me about them. Really can't say one is better than the other but I think V&H will cost you a little more money.

i have rush slipons on my rocker and they're ok, when i first got the bike it had the 1 1/2 baffles so it sounded like a yamaya or shadow to me but now i've got the 2 1/4 baffles and it actually sounds like a harley had short shots on my 04 sporty and i personally like the v&h better. I would go with v&h when i do pipes but i've seen way to many bikes with them around my parts and i personally don't like the fact that i would look like every other bike around so i'll be looking elsewhere more then likely martin bros

I put the V&H Straightshot slip ons on my 2010 FB lo. Love them and love the straight pipe look. Was a pain in the ars to put them on untill I got the right tools though. I got pics in my album, havent figured out how to add them here.

Haven't heard any V&H's slip ons other than touring bikes, Compared to them I like my Rush better. the 2'' is a lot deeper note

Rush is probably the No 1 seller around here for slip ons.

I've had my Rush 4 1/2 ys, all I'll say is I've not found any other system I like better than what I have.

They still look like new and there customer service it great.

Just last month I needed new batting for the baffles, called them and they sent me new material free of charge, Plus a few other freebies. IMO U cant beat that

Just to borrow this thread... Does anybody have any thoughts on the V&H BSS vs. the Rush crossovers?

It is really 6 of one a half dozen of the other. Rush is a site sponsor and relatively active here. I am surprised they have not responded yet. I sell far more Vance and Hines than Rush but I have heard and seen both and i woudl say they offer similar sound and quality.
