Add me to the love the Jackpots list. Also dealing with FuelMoto was such a pleasure. I'd be willing to bet If ten years from now I have a problem with them they would send me a new pair. Best customer service ever.

I'm have the rineharts and at times in the mountains when the engine is under a heavier load, I have a little trouble hearing what direction the banjo music is coming from. Aside from that.... I like em.

Well I'm seriously leaning towards the Rineharts. I'm really concerned about the look of the JP Touring and don't want to pay a $75 restocking fee if I don't like them.

I absolutely love my new 4" rineharts... my wife and I have done many 600+ mile days effortlessly listening to the stereo the whole way. Very touring friendly. I have never seen the JPPT in person but judging from the clip they seem to sound very similar to the 4" rineharts. Can't go wrong with FuelMoto's customer support and thoroughly tested products.

I've got rineharts on the RKC and jps on the limited. Jps are better for touring IMHO. They mellow out real nice in the straights.

for what it`s worth,you will love the jackpots!
i ride with five baggers,i`m the sixth and the only one with jackpots.
i`ll bet when my friends replace there bikes they put jackpots on,they love the sound and the look.
i`m not bashing rinehart,i`ve had many pairs over the years,but i`m not looking back again,sold on jackpot/fuelmoto!
you will love what ever choice you make

I like the sound of the JPPT as they do seem a little more mellow. A fellow at FM said both pipes have the same decible level of 96db open throttle but the JPPT have a lower tone which probably makes them seem quieter. He also said performance numbers are very similar. So all things being equal except the looks makes me lean away from the JPPT.

Of those that have the JPPT, did you totally dislike the megaphone look before you got the JPPT or was it just not your favorite and you though you could deal with it given the awesome sound they put out.

I REALLY appreciate all the feedback you've given I just don't to make a $500 dollar mistake one way or the other.
