I have read good reviews regarding Rush's quality and C.S. I was debating between V&H Pro Pipe and the Rush:1. My Stealer Dealer is actually recommeding the V/H. The V/H sound pretty good but I like the looks of the Rush. Additionally, there have some post regarding the quality of V/H.

Rush makes great quality pipes. I had the slip ons before I changed to the vance and hines pro pipe. I believe the rush pipes are ceramic coated so they should be cooler. I love the sound of my V&H and also like the looks. I found I didn't like the looks of most 2-1's on the market

How did the 2.25 sound? The Rush Tech recommended that size. Told him that I had 1.75 slip-on on my Sportster and really liked it. I just don't want to get a baffle that will be too obnoxius or ear piercing. Something that will give me a nice rumble, alert cars that are beside me (Loud pipes saves lives) 
, and something that will not annoy my friends while on interstate.

I have the Rush 2:1 installed on my '10 Road King. My bike has 96" motor w/ TW-777 cams, and the 2" baffle, so it will probably sound different on your '11 Fatboy, but here's a video anyways. (much deeper and louder in person, though not annoying to those around you)

I am very happy with the purchase of this pipe for many reasons: reasonably priced relative to other systems, sounds good, looks good (IMO), variety of tips to choose from, performs well w/ my cam upgrade, great customer service, and like someone else said, there aren't many others out there with this pipe. I got mine from Direct Harley Parts. They are a sponsor on here, so I would check with them to see if you can get a discount. They gave me the best price out there on my particular model. Good luck with your decision!

Stock headers & V&H slip on.
My brother has rush slips on his low rider, and I'm very impressed btw. I just happened to stumble on mine for $300 on eBay
