Your first mod should be with your schedule. As in, you should now be making excuses to go out and ride. My wife refers to my Fat Bob as Mrs Davidson and accords her the wary respect of a competing woman.
Do you want your bike to be loud? You don't need a new exhaust to do that. I love the tommy gun exhaust shields and wouldn't remove them for anything. I did like the blacked out look of the HD SE street performance mufflers so I got them. They had an added benefit of a deeper exhaust note but by no means a loud system. But if loud is what your looking for you could always replace your baffles while keeping the tommy gun shields. Google Big City Thunder baffles.

comfort and convenience,
do you need saddlebags, a sissybar, a better seat, pegs/grips, windshield.
i ride alot at night so upgraded headlights , and led turns/brake were done quickly.
once the bike is comfortable for a full tank straight ( minimum) then worry about making it go faster.
