I would love to see the typical buyer of one of those.
i can imagine a bike with a dented tank to sit on, 2 inches of fur on the fairings or a gal of bed liner paint job, a 12 o clock bar, a tank top riding shirt, a kick ass pair of oakleys, a pair of mechanics work gloves, red timberland high top boots, ripped up jeans(bought that way)

The theory makes sense as I'm told the 1199 runs very lean with stock ecu and exhaust. The pipe tips are white even in color. So if the ecu tunes a bit more fuel everywhere on the map because it thinks the temperature is different then I could see this working slightly at least. He doesn't really want more HP he's worried the bike is too lean?! Me I wouldn't bother to be honest but it's his money.
