I'm running the 1.75 baffles on my 2010 FXDC, and they are plenty loud enough for me. Very happy with how they look and sound. Had some decel popping after I installed them, but that is gone since I added an AC and a tuner.

When you ask "are they better than what I have now?" that is a broad question.
In the case of a slip-on, I'd say looks and the noise they make would drive a purchase. Performance difference is probably not noticable.

Thanks,

I have Cycle Shack slip ons (no baffles) and love the sound and looks. No annoying popping on decel at all.

I have the rush slip ons with the 2.25 baffle. They sound almost the same as my brothers V & H header pipes. I love the sound but cruising on the freeway with the 6th gear they seem almost quiet.

I have Rush slip-ons with the 1.75" baffles. I also have an extra set of 2.0" baffles. The 2.0" are louder, but I prefer the 1.75". In my opinion, along with many other Rush owners, they sound great.

I just ordered a new Rush crossover full system, so once it's installed in the coming weeks, I will be selling my slip-ons and extra baffles. They are off a 2008 Fat Bob. The slip-ons were only used for 1200 miles and the 2.0" baffles for only about 200 miles. PM me if anyone's interested.
