so curious. whats with the R1 circuit ECU they had listed in the HP and TQ graphs? Is that essentially a flashed ECU? why was it included in the graph?

also. was the right headlight out on the R1 in the video? I seen the left light on but the right was never on....or did yamaha do the goofy thing of only 1 light for "low" beam adn both lights for high beam?
 
Thanks for posting. I've been waiting/checking their site to see if they did a review. As I don't check the "magazine" I may have missed it. I'm bummed they didn't have the 1299 in the test.

That power graph is probably what a non US spec bike would get i guess.

damn. i hate that. everyone wants to say "your light is burned out"./ why couldnt they just have both of them on like they did for every model before this one (that im aware of...i never claimed to know everything)

Yup. I got that all the time, on my ZX10R and hoped that the next bike I bought had both on at once. I almost put an HID set on the 10R, JUST so I could have them both at once. LOL I know the people were just trying to be cool, by pointing it out, but damn if it doesn't get a bit annoying.
