Default Please Help me to choose an exhaust System for Sportster 48

Hello!
I'm a new member here. My last bike was Bmw,but I sold it and ordered Sportster 48 2017)
i love the sound and they looks great!

The problem is - I do not now nothing about how to tune my bike.
I searched the internet and found that:
1. http://www.kineticmotorcycles.com/sportster/540-lateral-exhaust-system
2.
http://products.vanceandhines.com/store/harley/46067/


I do not know what to order.
Can you tell me more about these exhaust systems?
or maybe you know something better and louder?

Also I searching companies that tunes Sprotsters
and found only this guys:
http://rough-crafts.myshopify.com/

maybe you know some more great companies which makes the best HD bikes?

Thanks! Sorry for my English )

I also suggest you just ride & enjoy your bike. You'll have time for that later. Keep educating yourself online & I'm sure you'll be able to decide what's best for you & the bike. Maybe some Sporty guys will chime in. Good luck.

There are tons of posts on here about all kinds of exhausts. Do some searching and you'll come up with plenty of stuff to look at.
Also try posting in the Sportster section.
Don't worry about tuning at this point. If all you're doing is changing the exhaust you don't really need it.

"search" DK Customs. They are a go to place for Sportster info. Lots of good reading with regard to Sportsters on their site. They handle exhaust mods, V&H Fp3 tuners and Stage 1 A/F filters, external crankcase breathers, foot pegs, shocks etc. They ship international.
