Hi Sethrose,
I agree that when you get just the right sound it's one of those modifications that multiplies the riding enjoyment by a factor of 1000 - go for whatever turns you on!! I chose the KSY system from Webike http://japan.webike.net/products/21004612.html as it was inexpensive but had that old school 4cyl racing howl of a Kerker - or what my fading memory thinks anyway!! Now here comes the "but" ... the header pipes were not exactly aligned to the exhaust outlets and it leaked around the header, also the outlet looked a bit aggricultiral. To sort out the issues we made up some aluminium sleeves to improve the seal of the pipe to the standard flange gaskets and turned up an aluminium end cap - pics below. Given the even cheaper chrome pipe you've seen at Webike does state that there will be leakage issues I thought you might want to see how I resolved the problem.

KSY system - I like the 'raw' look of this system, it's got an agressive note without being too loud plus the fuel mapping still seems OK. I run the removable baffle in all the time but with baffle removed it sounds like a race bike.

Aluminium flanges - these insert into the opening of the headers and provide a broader surface for the flange gaskets.

Moral of the story is 'you get what you pay for' and with the benfit of 20:20 hindsight the more expensive Morwaki 4:1 may have been a better option.

Good luck with your project.
