Default Rush exhaust?

Does anyone have anything to say about Rush exhaust? Ive read all good reviews. Theyre cheap, made in America, have a nice deep sound. But naturally you get what you pay for so im a bit skeptical. I like the two into one setup. Be going on 2002 road king CVO.

Rush is a quality organization with a great reputation for customer satisfaction. As you said you've read positive comments so why the apprehension?

Just put RUSH slip-ons, on my Softail Slim S. They sound great, and it doesn't hurt that they use the same name as my favourite band.

Actually I need a whole new exhaust. The pipe that runs tothe left completely split. I like the exhaust it has but I’m not going tobother with welding it all the time. Plus if I can get some added sound, I’mall for it. Like I said you get what you pay for. Low cost usually mean lowquality. But thank you guys so far for the help. Much appreciated.

I just installed a new dragula 2 system which is made for drago's by EPI which makes Rush exhaust systems. when it arrived it was the best wrapped and protected system I have ever purchased. I have had V&H, bassani, thunder header just to name a few and they were not packed this well. the finish and quality of the pipes and the heat shields is excellent . and have called RUSH several times to inquire about there systems and have had excellent customer support from them. over all I am very satisfied with this system

You do know a 2 into 1 exhaust on a Road King: The bike will lean to the right.

Ever heard Vance & Hines Hi Output slip-ons? Rush is very similar. Nice sound. I've had Rush on 2 bikes. You won't regret anything. Plus, different size baffles in case you want it louder or quieter.

Rush slip-ons, 1.75 baffle, were already installed on my '07 Deuce when I bought it earlier this year. I've never had Rush exhaust, but I really like them. Sounds as good or better than any H-D exhaust I've ever had ... Absolutely no reason to change them. I've worked with their customer service once for some Q&A, and they were super helpful.
