Honest fear??? Fear would be shifting my body weight entering a corner, accidentally hitting the shifter (and depending on the sensitivity of these systems) grenading a motor...

I enjoy downshifting, mastering throttle blips, etc. I'm not competing for titles or money, but I can see why some find this appealing or it may shave a few tenths-seconds off their best lap etc etc.

I'm sure this will be introduced on more street bikes in the coming year(s)

you're right....hopefully 2015 -- at that point, "try it, you may like it"

Jarel.
Im in for the street version.

I would like Peter to release a version of the Techtronics CABS system for the 1199. It was one of the first things I inquired about when prepping my duc. I've used his product on yamaha race bikes and it works extremely well. i think the yamaha unit retails for $300ish.

The tuneboy setup doesn't seem like a bad deal if you are already using it for mapping.

Good luck

Hey jarelj

Are you going to go a step further on this? Or are the comments on this thread too disappointing for you
I checked with one of the well known german dealers about the Tuneboy blipper solution. Since I do not have Tuneboy installed yet it would cost me 1350 USD, only material without work!!!
I really would love an alternative way, since I only want a blipper and no ECU remapping.

wait on ducati......it should hopefully be available stock (doesn't hurt to wish for it)

I'm not sure whether the 1299, the 1199R or both will have it next year. But I'm pretty sure that upgrading a 2012 Tri or an SL will be impossible. At least I can't remember that Ducati offered this kind of electronics upgrade in the past, but please correct me if I'm wrong!
And buying a new 1x99 in 2015 is not my goal. To be honest I fall a little bit in love with the H2R pictures. But I haven't seen this monster "eye-to-eye" (don't worry, I'll always be loyal to Italian brands , but they are simply to costly for me to track them, because I tend to follow gravity).

Yes, the product is coming for sure, the vendor just wants to get a feel for how big of a production run to plan for, which will also affect the pricing. So far there is a lot of interest in an external downshift blipper solution that does not require the ECU changes that the TuneBoy system does.

Very cool. Thank you for your efforts!

Any idea approximately when these will be available?

Will there be a DQS up/down clutchless shifting remap or ECU flash for our 1199s to get the 1299 technology?

Ducati has never done anything like that in the past, so I don't see it happening.

Any idea on the quality of the wiring harness? I know that sounds dumb but I am all about details/quality......I don't wanna pay $1000 and get a cluster f&*K of wires wrapped in hockey/elec tape

At a minimum you paid Ducati about $19,000 for hockey tape wrapped wires...

^ true :-(

New TuneBoy QS with auto blipping is cool! Need to fine tune it but it's fun. Changing my style a bit too. Highly recommend it. Once you can get the effing TuneBoy software to work that is lol. That's another thread haha.
