RUSH PERFORMANCE,

I REALLY like the looks of your 2:1. I have the 1.75" slip-ons with your heat shields. The smallest 2:1 you offer is the 2". Is that louder than the 1.75" slip-ons? Are they comparable?

The 2.0 baffles will be a bit deeper sounding and louder then the 1.75's

Hey Ryan, I'm VERY happy with the crossover system on my scoot great looks, great sound, and a lot less heat than stock. This is the second Rush product I have used and have been pleased with both. Keep up the good work Rush Performance.

I had rush pipes on my last bike loved the product second to none, I tried to get the crossover through fuelmoto when I was putting my stage one package together but they told me they don't sell rush anymore,to bad because it's a great product, but I couldn't turn down the package deal they gave me with V&H

found a little tidbit of info from the harley dealership this weekend.

I was told that Rush used to be the contract manufacturer of the Screaming Eagle systems back in the day before harley took it in house or something like that - but they dealer said it definitely was not stopped due to quality, performance, customer service or anything else negative and that it was an excellent product - rather something on the moco side changed and now you get the SE pipes that are barely louder than stock - he was a BIG fan of RUSH and not so much of the newer SE stuff they have hanging all over their walls.

Another thing I like about my rush pipes, besides the great customer service, Looks and sound is that everybody and their brother has V&H they are just way over done and over rated. Dollar for dollar I feel rush is a way better deal.

well we ordered them this AM at $310 shipped

we bought the 7020SL-175

these are the crossover system with the slash tips that allow you to angle the exhaust how you want and with the 1.75 baffles it should be loud enough when wanted and quiet enough that we don't need a com system for us to talk bike to bike when riding side by side

My pipe is a custom pipe, modified by Frank Drago and built by Rush. Externally appears identical to the Rush 2-1. The ceramic coating really knocks down the heat. I've had zero issues with "fried thighs" that others complain about.

Just a bit of advice. When you go to install the pipes use the standard tapered gaskets. The straight cut SE gaskets don't work very well with these pipes. Trust me it will save you having to install them twice.

There are many rumors about Rush manufacturing the old SE pipes, this is not true. We have only manufactured our own pipes right here in beautiful northwest Indiana. The one exception is for Drago's systems. SE stopped selling their performance slip ons that everyone used to love. We started right before they stopped and our sound was very similar to the old SE so everyone thought we made them... we were flattered considering how much the H-D riders liked them. Also I would like to note that not only do we manufacture our exhaust, our exhaust is 100% made in America; from the steel to the fiberglass matting to our packaging.
We do manufacture performance systems for Drago. If you know anything about his work you will know his systems are performance driven and they produce!

Thanks for all the support and I speak for everyone here when I say that!
-Ryan
