Default Rush 2" vs 2.25" Baffles

I can't get rush mufflers around here locally so I have to go online. Unfortunately, nobody online sells the 2" baffles, the only options are the 1.75" and 2.25" -- From what I've read, if I get the 2.25" baffles then I will need to re-tune my PCM.. But everyone seems to think that the 2.0" baffles sound the best.

How do the 1.75" baffles sound?
What else will I need to do to my bike (07 Deluxe) with 2.25" baffles?

Thanks in advance, you guys always have the answers.

What kind of bike do you have? I have a set of Rush 2.00" slip-ons in near new condition that I could sell you for cheap. They're #26401 for '07 Fat Boy, Deuce, or SE Springer. They were only on my bike for a few hundred miles before I swapped them out for a full aftermarket exhaust. Here they are on my bike.

It's an 07 Deluxe so I don't think they'll fit. But thanks...I would have bought them for sure!

Your number set up would be a 27xxx-200 series. The last 3 number depends on it you want a straight cut etc. Good luck with them

Dave, your set up is what we have been thinking about for my wifes 07 heritage, how do you like the sound and proformance? which size baffles did you say you went with,2.00 or 2.25. did you go with race tuner or just a performance flash?

Thanks, Bob

I just brought home my new 2006 Softail Standard yesterday. I had the RUSH 2 "Baffles - Slash Downs installed . They look great and have that deep Harley tone. They are plenty loud for me. There is a little too much snow yet to take it out -- so I cant comment on performance. I also had the Cobra Fueler and the S/E High Flow A/C installed .

I have the 1.75 on my 07 Heritage and they sound great. Not to loud but they do sound good.

I have the 2.25" and they sound great, but to me, I think they are loud.
I'm new to the Harley sceen and I told the sales guy that I didn't want loud pipes, just better sound.
I think he forgot the "not loud" part.
I didn't have to re-tune anything, unless I changed the AC filter.

I wish I had gotten the 2" but all they stocked were 1.75" and the 2.25".
You can always change the baffles latter for about $60, which is what I may do and go with the 2".
