2016 Forty Eight

Check out this comparison video of the three baffle sizes in the 3" Rush if you later want to consider going louder. I went from 2" to 2.25" baffles with W158 TTIs....I love the loud deep rumble. No loss in power or torque with TTIs. I also had it Dyno-tuned.

Got the Rush slipons (1.75 baffle) & the dynojet powervision installed
I've rode a couple hundred miles to 'feel it out'
First I installed just the slipon mufflers
Soon as you fire it up, you hear a big difference (puts a smile on your face)
Ran it down the road and it spit and sputtered a lil bit but sounded great otherwise.
IMO you need to re-calibrate/flash the original tune after installing a free-flowing exhaust.
note: adding just the slipons and no other modifications left the engine loud but flat-feeling in the torque department.
Next, installed the PV and K&N air cleaner set-up
and took it for a ride
Ran crisp and the torque was back but at a much higher RPM range.
Where-as the torque on the stock bike came alive around the 3,000 to 3,200 RPM mark
It now hits hard around the 3,800 to 4,200 RPM range (kinda mis that lower grunt but where the stock bike fell-off it now comes alive)
Best I can describe it is -took a (low to mid range motor) and made it a ( mid to top-end motor ) it really honks on the top now and has enough mid range torque to easily pull 2nd gear wheelies over the tops of hills!
It will get up to 100mph pretty quick and still has some pull left. Haven't had the right opportunity yet to confirm top speed but i estimate 120-130mph
I like how long the Rush slipons are, they give a long & low look to the lil sporty!
