Rush or SuperTrapp
Bought some rush slip in mufflers, they are louder than I like for a touring bike.
Heard the Supertrapp has disc that can be added to quieten the sound down. Has anybody tried the difference in performance and sound in these 2 slip in mufflers. I want a good pipe with not too much noise but performance without resnators in the pipes. Woods performance suggested both pipes along with my builder. Thanks !
PS I have an 08 standard.

Use the Supertrapp SE's and forget about thatdisc setup that's ugly as sin anyways.

How loud are they ? I want to use them without changing my air intake till TM comes out with a update for the 08 touring.

lIListening to supertrapp on their web site the mufflers sound like they hae a clacking sound when run on a motorcyle. I thought the disc were used to change the power to different rpm ranges and to help cut down on noise also.

RE: Rush or SuperTrapp
The sound clip on the Supertrapp website is for their Touring SE Mufflers, your correct it's a pop pop pop sound which increases to a jack hammer sound on the open high way. The Supertrapp 2 into 1 Muffler has the disks which can be adjusted for the level of sound and performance you want and sound a lot better than the SEs; if you do a search on this forum you might find someone that has a sound clip. Some don't like the look of a 2 into1 on a bagger, so you might want to look and listen to one before you purchase one.

RE: Rush or SuperTrapp
cardboard,,,, I have the supertrapp SE's,,, they dont sound like pop,pop, or a jackhammer!!!!!
I didnt install air or fuel either on my 08,,, run fine!

It looks like for a little more I can go with the 2in1 super megs. If I could just find a sound clip on them.

RE: Rush or SuperTrapp
I like the Supertrapp SEs too.
The are fairly quiet at low rpm when you are just cruising along, but then, when you crack the throttle.. they get nicely louder with a mellow rounded sound with no metallic overtones.
They're great sounding and they look great too.
