VnH is one of my options ...i ll travel to the states in september ..I have write to VNH chat ,,they say the cant sell them in california

- The 1.75" baffles will have a less deep tone, but likely increase the performance a little bit

I went with the 1.75" baffles and dont regret it, although my "butt dyno" isnt as sensitive as others and i dont really notice an increase in performance. At least i dont notice a decrease, so im happy with that. It also sounds great to me. Definitely loud, but not stupid.
that is a grate explication ...Iwrote yesterday to Rush for the diferences and they no respond me yet ..thanks guy

Rush slipons with a good tune can rival a 2 into 1 exhaust for power. Leave the baffles out and add the Thunder Torque 258s, or use the 2.25" baffles with the smaller Thunder Torque inserts. You can tune the inserts by turning them at an angle until you get the desired sound/performance.

Grate ! I'm surprised with rush, it has very good user reviews ... it's my first Harley and I really would like a good sound

Now...I continue to investigate based on your opinions and I have a new question .. what is the difference between 34211 - Slash Down and 34214 - Baloney Cut .. is it just visual? Or the cut influences the sound.
I will be in LAS VEGAS - SAN FRANCISCO AND LOS ANGELES September 18 to 28 .. where dp you recommend to buy Rush .. I understand that in California is prohibited the commercialization of these products. I do not know if the ban is for EBAY deliveries too

Play it safe and buy it in Las Vegas. Or have it delivered there.
