Hi, im currently riding a suzuki sv650s with the big chunky stock can, any idea's the best can for it? something with a bit of noise, but that suits the sv? and also how easy is it to fit myself?

Dead easy to fit yourself, it's only around 2-3 bolts to get it changed.

As for what's best that's rather subjective. Depends on your budget.

MHP do a fabulous looking Moto GP style full system, but that's about a grand. They could probably knock you up a can and link pipe, but it'll still be rather pricey. Yoshimura stuff is really good quality as is Akrapovic. At the opposite end there's stuff like Scorpion and Carbon Can Co.

As for materials it all comes down to preference. Personally I prefer Ti, CF then Stainless in that order, but it's up to you. Stainless is the cheapest, with CF and Ti being similar pricing or CF being a little more depending on quality.

I bought a single 'Fuel' can a few months back. Nothing too extravagant - I think it cost about £160. It's a carbon effect stubby oval jobby. I fitted it soon as I got it and what a difference! removed the baffle and creamed myself. If you don't want to spend a huge amount, I'd recommend one of these (can post a vid/sound file if you want).

On the SV650 you have to cut the standard exhaust off, the new can should come with a link pipe, 2 clamps and a hanging strap Thumbs Up

EDIT

Or buy this..
