Default next performance mod

Im ready to make my next performance mod and want to know what will be the best bang for my buck performance wise.

Ive got an 07 with the only mods being slip ons and a stg1 air cleaner setup.

Which would be the better bang for my buck? A tune or full exhaust?

The only problem I would have with the exhaust is I am on my 3rd set of slip ons because its taken me a while to find a set with a sound that I like.

What is my best option here?

Am I missing any other options?

Power Vision Tuner from Fuel Moto (excellent support and maps). I noticed a nice increase in performance with the PV, pipes and air cleaner. Of course, I didn't stop there! It never ends.

Unless you're going to a two into one I don't think a full exhaust would make enough of a difference to justify the cost. A good dyno tune by someone who knows what they're doing would be the most bang for the buck.If you're going to do cams do that first then tuner then tune.After that maybe gearing.
