The R12S does not need Lennies sprockets, I don't think any of the boxers do, they are 1200cc twins ferchristsakes. There is probably no single engine configuration that has more midrange to begin with. But if you put them in and think they help thats all that matters.
I do know that my BCR was so over weight and underpowered that it took a rise in the road a handful of throttle and a tug on the bars to get the front wheel off the ground. The "sprockets" negated a need for the rise in the road at the cost of a perceptible loss of top end power. The R12S is a powerful motor in stock config and can be turned into a rocket with a proper ECU rewrite and exhaust. The HP2S is better still and a blip of the throttle gets the front wheel aloft in most gears.
I have no personal mission against Lennie, but if the sprockets were the hot set-up he would be selling them as fast as China could make em.
