Mines all sat waiting for me to build it (been years lol but selling my MTS now to do it...) but I've got Silmotor big bore headers for mine which are SS and have the link pipes (spaghetti maybe?) which exit via 2/3 length open carbon cans. The first engine that will go in is stock but will have a Dynojet kit and MWR airbox lid so with the open clutch should make lots of lovely noise.

Personally I don't like single cans on twins and love the twin low level set up of the original

As with all these things it depends on what route you want to take with your bike, either ‘period parts’ that were available when the 900 was a current model or a remade modern equivalent which will give a slightly different look.

The latter if done well can still look good but many simply do not suit the classic lines of the original shape Monster in my opinion.

But second hand parts for the early (either carb’d or first generation fuel injection) are either getting hard to find, commanding high prices or require restoring back to their former glory (or a combination of those three).

As well as carbon, stainless, alloy or titanium there is also high or low level to consider, again depending on your preference.

Here are a couple that may be worth a look though:
