Fuelmoto is releasing his own brand of muffler for the Touring bikes that wiill bebranded the "Jackpot" muffler.They are basically the same as therush-fuelmoto mufflers they are currently selling, they use their same custom bafflesbut the muffler body has some slight differences to the rush. The best news is price, theysaid thatretail is $329.00. Jaime said he is trying to update his site with new info so keep an eye open.

RE: fuel moto
I too am in the process of purchasing a fuelmoto package (Rush slip-ons, PCIII and K and N AC. I was told when I talked to the tech that the 2.5 baffles are notorius for decel popping and requires a bit of playing with the map to correct. I decided to go with th 2.0" baffles wich are supposedly already preset witha map. Which baffle size Did you get???

RE: fuel moto
Okay I'm in the same position as 379 Glide. I set the throttle both closed and WOT I went on a 1250 mile ride and the throttle side pipe burned at the baffle. Jamie said he will replace it but it leads me to believe something is not right with the map. The thing still pops like hell letting off the throttle below 3k RPMs or so. Oh and I averaged about 39MPG on the trip. Some tanks worse and other a little better.

Mileage is relative to the map and the way you ride, and as has been tossed around here and other threads many times, Jamie's maps are tuned for performance and cooling. The mileage can be improved and performance retained by leaning the cruise range where you ride most of the time. Read above and elsewhere for more on that, and PM or email me if you have any questions. I'm still baffled (pardon the pun) by your problem with the right muffler. Double-check that the left muffler has the reversion cone installed. Shine a flashlight into the muffler and toward the front you'll clearly see it as a 3/4" restriction. Also, the left baffle is ¼" smaller (1.75 vs. 2.0"). If they are reversed I could see where problems might occur.

What do you mean by "pipe burned at the baffle"? Changed color? If so, it shouldn't happen with Jamie's rich map.
