Just about to order one. I have a TC which from reading the other threads is quite smooth anyway. I just want the peace of mind of a little richer running will have over the long time I hope to keep the bike.
Got one my gs.

Any good? What difference do you think it makes? Does it improve fuel economy?

No idea, sorry. It was on it when I bought it.
It IS quicker than my previous 2005 1200GS, but then this one has been decatted.

stu1969 - all your questions answered HERE
Yes..many many pages of info here..
BTW. i haven't fitted one to my 2013 TC GSA, as the fueling and performance is spot-on.
Did you run one of these on a pre TC GS? I ask as if you did then your experience is useful.
Yes, I had the AC Mod on my 09 GSA for 30k miles.
Combined with Remus headers and Akra can, it really did improve fueling performance, especially low speed stuff.
I recommended fitting one to any pre TC 1200.
But like I said, I've not installed one on my TC, as the stock fueling is excellent.
Thanks for your feedback. I think I will leave mine alone. I know it runs well. I was just a bit worried it might be running lean.
They all run lean. I personally assure you that they run better with the cat removed and one of these fitted 
The 2007 - 2009 (MU) models would seem to be particularly lean burners. Which could be why they respond well to AC mod. Espesially when combined with de-cat headers.

Hearing good reports about these, I have a wunderlich power controller on mine with de-cat oem headers and an akra can, the pc made quite a bit of difference!, however, one thing I did when changing the headers was clean the lam sensors as they were black as! (mines done 74k) this I think made a huge difference to tick over and slow running

Cleaning lambda sensors is a bit risky, the active coating is very thin.

I did wonder when I was doing it, hence a light clean not submersing and heavy wire brushing

It looks like I was taken in by car the industry BS and probably wasted a load of cash on an O2 sensor. TBH I had nothing to lose if it really was duff. Shame I didn't see this

Thanks for this post fitted mine today as a result. Does what is claimed. Only been for a shortish ride but first impressions very favourable. Mine is fitted to an 08 R1200 GSA with no cat.
