I have the 1.75" baffles. Nice sound both at high and low RPM. Louder than stock but not as loud as straight pipes.

I don't like slip on's, but the Rush's do not sound bad at all. Why are you not installing them yourself? Slip on's have to be one of the most simple jobs on the bike.

I have the 2". At first they sounded good but kind of loud and harsh but after about 1000 miles and some carbon, they have a nice deep sound.

I have about 12000 miles on them now and they sound great.

I've got the 1.75". Couldnt be more pleased. I was looking for the "louder than stock but not too loud" sound and they are perfect.

Lots of options to tailor the sound. As others have said you can go louder than stock at 1.75 all the way to setting off car alarms at 2.25. I have the 1.75 and like the sound at all RPM's.

True that. Hardest part of the job is getting the old ones off.
