I do not have a '10 or the Rush true duals, but I would have to say the Rush duals. I have been looking into getting a set for my '05. They have the ceramic coating on the inside and the outside. The benefit to that is cooler motor and exhaust temps which would lead to a more effecient motor IMO. I have the Bub true duals that are non ceramic coated and they get hot as do any other non ceramic coated pipe. I would think the V&Hs would be the same unless they have a ceramic pipe. Most do if you run black, but I noticed that Rush offers the chrome heatshields on their ceramic headers. Just my .02

I think both would be a good choice. But leaning toward Rush because of the ceramic coating.

If cornering clearance is important to you, then look for the one that hangs down less. I put the V&H Power Duals on and although I really like the look, they hang down lower than anything else on the right side and really limit my corner when in the mountains going around right hand turns.

I posted this same question a couple of weeks ago. I decided to go with Dragobike works (Frank). Look him up he is a sponsor on here. His pipes are designed by him for him but manufactored by Rush. They are the same ceramic coat and powder coat/ Chrome as Rush. Frank is a real nice guy give him a call. I haven't received my pipes yet there was some quality control issues on the last batch. I like the ideal of American made (Rush and Dragobike) vrs V&H (oversees)
