Exhaust without intake mods just makes it easier for the exhaust to get out, and even if you mod both intake and exhaust, it doesn't "let more air in" until you put your foot closer to the carpet.

The only reason not to direct the gasses out in the most efficient way possible is if you have an engine that relies on residual exhaust to pre-charge the cylinder to limit intake charge.

You don't, that I'm aware of.
I will use the header has 1.75 exit so close to the stock 1.5 exhaust
I found a muffler with a 1.75 to a 1.5 exhaust holes and a stright 1.5 pipe out the back

Oh, good point! The rear brakes are being completely changed out anyway, so you're already into re-engineering the braking system. So a master cylinder swap (and maybe proportioning valve swap) may be needed anyway.

As for the brakes will be using the stock set up the bike rear will be nothing but E brake.set up..
