OK, I've been reading through here, and have come upon a loss.
So I'm going to say something I have not heard a lot of:
I like the sound/tone of the stock exhaust system.
A deeper sound with slightly more dB would be nice, but I don't want to change it a lot. I don't want loud/obnoxious. I do, however, want to lose the weight and gain a bit of hp/tq.
Aesthetically, the stock cans also look appeasing to me. They fit the shape and look of the bike.
Only others that look aesthetically pleasing are the Urban Brawlers.
However, m1ellison pointed out the vast amount of noise these make with headers. Here's his thread:

But I cannot argue these points:
stock is heavy
power is to be found in both tq and hp with a header
slip ons have few numbers to show the gains
Which brings me to my issue;
What should I look for decent gains without obnoxious noise and doesn't look like I bolted on something from a toy store?
