Default Rush Baffles

I have the Rush 1.75'' Baffles on my 09 Streetglide with no breather or fuel management. Can anyone who has the 2'' baffle with same setup advise if there is enough of a sound difference to make a switch?
Do those of you with the 2'' get any popping on decel or otherwise? I don't have an issue with the 1.75'' baffles popping. Thanks.

I had 2" and went to 2.25" and could tell/hear the difference. No popping or anything. I than pulled them back out and removed the packing and it sounded even better.

I have the 2" baffles in mine.........not sure about difference between the
1.75" and 2" baffles... ( except for the obvious .25" )
I also added the SE air breather and a set of XIED's from NightRider.
I see and hear mostly Rinehearts or V & H exhausts....decided to go with
something different thats not commonly seen or heard.

Totally happy with their product and customer service.......

Default rush 2"

My wife had the 2 inch but didn't like the sound, so I did what I've had to do with every bike she has ever owned. I made a pair of baffles that had the sound she wanted. She has a good ear for what she wants, and all I have to do is dial in a pair so she is happy. I built her one pair about a year ago that was a spiral turbo design that kept the same tone thru most of the rpm range. She wanted to go a bit quieter, so I took them out and put "HER" baffles back in. A lot of riders have told her that her bike sounds real nice, so I guess she knows what she wants. Don

Go to the Rush website they have video an sound for baggers from 1.5 /2.5 baffles.

The 2 inch are what we sell the most. No probs.

I hope this helps.

I had the Rush with 2" baffles on my 09 EGC. When I first started to buy the muffler's, I was told I could go up 1.75 Baffle without changing the AF and Remap. I wanted more sound and throttle response, so I was told to do the 2" baffles and Stage1. I did and loved the sound and increased power. Plus it ran cooler. I would check with Jamie @ FuelMoto. He sells Rush. He can help you get what you want. I just ordered a set of Jackpot's from him.
