Hey Guys - I'm new to this site and it really looks like a pretty kewl place to get some good input from some experienced riders. I am suppose to pick up my new 2006 Road King standard fuel inj. either Tues or Weds of this week. My question is this: Should I go with the Rush pipes for my bike? The sales guy was making a pretty good sales pitch for the RUSH pipes. Are they worth the money? If I do go with the Rush pipes what will have to be done to the engine in able to get the best performance and efficiency? Or are there other pipes I need to take a look at. Thanks in advance for all your input.
Don't go on just someones hear-say. What some people like from a pipe, others don't. I would check out the sound of pipes at a local run or watering hole to see if you can find the sound you like. I'm not knocking Rineharts, but I don't care for them. A bit pricey and everybody and their aunts and uncles have Rineharts. I want something different from everyone else. Just my opinion though. I'm looking at the Rush 2.500 myself, but won't buy until I hear them. I've heard they are a good quality exhaust, but I don't know what they sound like.
I have a couple of buds that run the Rush mufflers. I think they sound awesome. Real deep rumble and sound great under acceleration. Very good price also. I think they both have the 2" baffles.
If I didn't have Rinehart TD's the Rush would be a good choice.
You might try rolling thunder mufflers, I put them on my '05 Ultra and just love em. They only cost $199.00 shipping included, there are several styles to choose from and they fit perfect and look great. Look them up online
