Default Hid / exhaust questions

Well as I am going to be using my bike for commuting day and night I have been thinking about upgrading my headlights to HID can anyone recommend a good set?

Also I have been pricing up a new can for the bike as at the moment she is running a standard baffled can. I have been offered a viper link pipe and oval end can brand new for £186 and was wondering if it's worth it and if they sound good?

I went with a DDM Tuning H4 hi/low kit 5000k. Can't comment on it since I still haven't had a chance to install it yet, but the install seems to be straightforward.. Lifetime warranty too for about $50. Can't go wrong

As for exhaust, it's about looks and sound. When I bought my F4 it had a round micron carbon can on it. Great sound and look but was a bit loud for me while riding. I swapped a yoshimura RS3 stainless a few years ago and I couldn't be happier... A slightly lower tone and a bit quieter but still sounds strong. Listen to a few bikes maybe even try YouTube...

aI would go with the DDM tuning HID's like Turbulenz said I have been riding with them for about 4 months now and they are bright as hell and really allow you to see the road really well. I dont think i can go back to regular lights now.

Ok so after abit of poking around I have decided to definitely go with the viper now just trying to lock down what HID's to go for as DDM don't ship to the uk. Do I need H4 fittment?
