Fullsac, Rush, or Jackpots?
Anyone have any experience with any of these? All seem to have great performance gains on a stock 09. Curious about which ones have the deepest sound, which are the loudest, and how bout fit and finish? Please do not confuse these links as advertising!

I just put a set of Rush with 1.75 baffles on our Ultra this afternoon. The fit and finsh is good and on par with the V&H ovals on my FLHX. To my ears, the Rush mufflers sound deeper than the V&H ovals and not as loud as the ovals. Based on what I've been told, I expect the Rush pipes to get a little louder as they break in. Both bikes have V&H true duals, SE air breathers and fuel management. Any way you slice it, the Rush mufflers sound way better than the SE mufflers I wasted money on. Can't help you with either of the others you asked about.

I just installed the Rush 1.75's to replace my Rineharts. The fit and finish is excellent. The sound is a nice lower rumble compared to the Rineharts, but still plenty loud. Can't attest to the other two, but Rush is good option in that there are 5 different baffle options for sound, and about 20 different tip options for looks.

I have what is basically a Fuel Moto Power Package, formerly with a PCIII but recently upgraded to the PCV with Auto-Tune. I originally bought Rush 1.75's but upgraded to FM's custom baffles and am almost giddy with excitement about the present setup. Rush slip-ons with these baffles are functionally identical to Jackpots, and either in combo with a PCIII/PCV and AC are IMO the best bang-for-the-buck Stage 1 upgrade available.
Performance and sound are impressive, loudness being civilized without suppressing the requisite deep rumble. These are quieter than the Rush 1.75's, IMO with a better tone and less bark, and I can now do a long ride without my ears ringing or straining to hear the stereo. It is a perfect combo for my taste. See FM's site for dyno charts, which are very impressive.
BTW if you already have Rush mufflers the custom baffles are available for $100. They use better baffling material that on my bike has not changed in tone or volume in over a year, and Jamie warrants this material for as long as you own the bike.

ICLICK,
I was just reviewing your original VALUABLE post on these over a year ago:
https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...baffles-2.html
Gotta ask - I've been accustomed to 2.5" baffles for a few seasons - like the NASTY A$$ bark - OL doesn't - won't hop on that back until they are a little (allot) quieter.
I bought Jamie's modified baffles, but have not installed them yet. I think those are the modified 1.75 LH and 2.0 (53MM) RH.
They are probably going to be way tooooooooo quiet for my tastes.
Did you or has anyone else tried the other one??? Apparently he makes a 57MM RH.
Thanks in advance. Dave H.

I purchased the true dual convertion kit, and "re-cored" mufflers from B & E Performance. Bought the middle of the line mufflers. Found B & E on internet, they are very similar to Fullsac. I am VERY satisfied with the look and sound. Not too loud at idle or slow speed but sounds great on acceration. You CAN'T beat the price. If you go with this type don't bother to send your mufflers in for re-core, since by the time you pay shipping it costs the same,without the shipping hassles.
