Advise on Exhaust - sorry if it has been asked before

Hi All,
Having recently purchased a 50th Anniversary VTR1000F it has come with a set of Road Legal Remus Cans, However one of the mod's that I really do want is a Fruity exhaust note (Loud!) I am also thinking High Level, I don't really want to go down the route of dynojetting just a Simple Exhaust Can upgrade and maybe a drop in K&N Air Filter.
Any advice would be appreciated and also I am open to any 2nd hand cans anyone maybe wanting to sell.
BTW Hope you all have a great xmas !

If you put in a K&N air filter, you're gonna have to dynojet as these bikes don't like airbox changes otherwise. And it will cost quite a bit to get it jetted perfectly for the K&N..
As for exhausts, I'll let someone who knows their stuff answer that

Remus do a high level exhaust for the 50th model
If you were to get a set it would keep it looking as it should .
And as the little one says don't fit a k&n they are crap just stay with a standard .
If you do change the cans keep the Remus for when you sell it just to keep it original

ive just fitted viper aluminium round cans and they sound great very deep but not sharp .
these plenty out there and over the next two months is the best time to buy as most are selling to recover funds from crombo .
