Slightly stunts the acceleration but also lowers the revs when at cruising speeds so if anything even more economical , the larger front sprocket should also give the chain an easier time with regards to wear rate
Agreed, 17 tooth does stunt the acceleration but it gives it a nice long legged feel.

Just tried to order the JTF704RB from wemoto and they said they don't stock it, just the plain 704
Seems worth getting the RB from comments above
I want to order the very same for my 59 plate 800 but there are two versions for my bike - 8.5mm and 10.5 mm bolt. Looks as if I'll have to investigate before ordering
The rear hub on my 13 plate F800GS has the 10mm studs. I believe the stud size changed with the 2012 model.
