Default Rush/Fuelmoto slipons

Sorry, but another question on the subjective subject of muffler sound!!
I have an 08 RK with stock mufflers, I would like a slightly louder and deeper sound. I decided from reading many posts that the Rush/Fuelmoto slip-ons are some of the best as far as quality and customer service. My question, before I order anything, is how much louder is the 1.5" baffle over the stock pipes or would it be better to go with the 1.75" (I think the 2.0" would be too loud for my type of riding).
Thanks for any feed back.

I had Rush w/2" baffles on my 09 EGC. They were in my opinion a very good slip-on. Sound was ok. I now have the Dyna Tuned Jackpot's from Fuelmoto. I like them much better. The deep rumble is what I wanted. I like the bark they have when I roll on the throttle. If you want good sound, but not too loud, I would buy their Jackpot's with the quiet baffles. I personnally think the Jackpot chrome quality and the baffles are better than Rush, plus they are cheaper. JMO

Not to Hijack this,
I'll be watching to see what the opinions are.
Thinking about this change myself.

Thanks for starting this thread.

IMO the Jackpot Dyno-Tuned mufflers are the best slip-ons on the market for the money and probably for performance as well. They guarantee they will out-perform other slip-ons, BTW.

I don't like excessive noise either but its definition varies from person to person. With stock cams my bike was fine with the standard Jackpot baffles, but after a cam upgrade the noise jumped up to a level I wasn't happy with. That was nobody's fault since I expected that result. I bought the Quiet Baffle kit and the noise is down to a sane level, IMO, without affecting performance as far as I could tell.

Another vote for the Jackpot mufflers. They are right at the edge of my noise tolerance and I can still hear my radio.
