My stock exhaust is the same way. Easy fix, get a nice slip-on

It is minor surface rust, no sweat ride on!!

You should be able to remove the surface rust useing a good cleaner( alchohol) and a soft pick. No sence wasting money on an aftermarket can if you don't have too, the stock can looks the better than any slip on and suits the bike just fine.

Mine has rust too but not as noticeable as yours

The stock can is something that grew on me. I almost didn't buy the bike because of the can but now I kinda like it actually. And it's quiet-ish if you are into those things. Still got my eye on the scorpion though.
