Hi everyone. Been lurking a bit for the last week while waiting to see if the bike I was thinking of buying was worth while and not more then I was comfortable playing around with

Got this bike for 400 bucks. Runs nice and smooth and is very clean. Only issue is a broken side cover.
I am not super comfortable with mechanical things, but am willing to try a few. Step outside the comfort zone. It's mostly cosmetic I'm going for.
My plans for this bike.
1- clubman bars
2- shorty exhaust or turn out. Is there a difference in anything other then looks between the two?
3- wrap the pipe. I like the look.
4- smaller instrument pod
5- seat mod
Question of the day. The trumpet silencer is welded to the header. Is this something that can be cut of at the weld and slip on a new silencer? Or do I need to scrounge up a new header.
This is my 3rd running bike. Have been bike less for a couple years. Hoping this will keep me smiling while I'm away from home working.
