I have the Big Louies but not the head pipe. Good sound though quite loud

What size baffle? I'm thinking 2" with big loui. Rush suggested this with no cat. Do you like your pv?

Keep in mind the larger the baffle the more to the right the torque will be. True duals already kill the bottom end torque, to large of a baffle will amplify that.

I had Rush mufflers on stock header on my 2006 Street Glide that I owned before my Tri Glide, loved them and did not see any loss of power.

Rush True Duals on Triglide instead of catless Fuelmoto or Fullsac? Pros and cons?

I can't think of any pros because all 3 will reduce heat. The con is True dual will move the torque to a higher RPM where both the Jackpot and Xpipe will not because they are 2.1.2 head pipes like original equipment. Trikes are 1200 lbs and under powered to begin with, they need all the low end torque they can get to get that load moving.

Mike Roland did a dyno comparison of Kuryakyn true duals against the power cell ( V&H Power Dual )

Mike's qoute >> I got to do some testing again. I tested the TC-24D cams in one of our 96" FLHX bikes and the 103 I did before. The Crusher True Duals were tested against the Crusher Power Cell. It's the only difference between the runs. Conditions were near identical to last sessions tests. Correction factor was 1.00.

The Power Cell has a definite advantage above 4000 RPM. On the same bikes stock there was no advantage to the Power Cell over the True Duals. Torque curves and peak numbers were identical.Torque curves and peak numbers are close between the regular Crushers and the Mellows that there is virtually no difference besides the sound in my testing.

Mike Roland



M3 is right about the larger baffles in a muffler will move your torque to the right some

Ditto Chums. I put them on my '08 Ultra, the previous owner put Rush mufflers on the '09 trike. Sound good, trike runs great.
