    There's a bunch of good pipes. I've had Akrapovic and Yoshimiura recently and loved them both, Dr.D makes good stuff .
    Where are you from though ? If it's a California bike you should plug or remove with a kit the smog pump, via one of the kits in the online store here.
    If you don't fix the jetting and open up the airbox SIMULTANEOUSLY a pipe is a waste of money,and aftermarket pipe or not your bike is nowhere near where it should be because it is way,way too lean. If you add a pipe to that too lean stock condition your bike will run like crap and also run too hot.
    Here's the easiest way :

    Remember,simultaneously. The jet kit has great directions,follow them,and enough extra jets for just about any combination of modifications you can think of.

    Just as Doug said,take care of the jetting/open up air box and the smog pump(if cali model).Just A suggestion
    on the exhuast do some research on what kind of power delivery suits your style such (as more low too mid or mid too top).The stock header gives great lowend ,then by adding A slip-on muffler gives A smooth useable power band with plenty of punch throughout the range.
    My set-up is JD jettingw/cut air-box/smog block off kit and DMC Afterburner Quiet 4 slip-on..Good Luck!

    SLICK...
