I tried this on my 49-state (but living in California) US 2007 FZ1 and it worked fine in the menu. I have yet to ride the bike with this new setting. Mine was also set to 100 hp by default. It seems like everyone's bike is set to 100 hp by default at the factory.
The curious thing here is: this seems to contradict all the dyno tests run on stock bikes, as they seem to indicate around 150 at the crank and around 130 at the wheel, right? This also makes me wonder ... is it really a difference of 50 hp here? Is there any difference in hp? Why would increased hp lead to increased gas milage?
So folks, what is really going on here? I'd really love to find out what we are specifically changing in this menu. I wish there was some official documentation about this somewhere. There must be, right? Also, where did the OP find out about this? I'd love to find out, since maybe it describes things in a bit more detail.
As I scrolled through differing D settings, I could hear something being mechanically adjusted in engine (I'm guessing some aspect of the fuel injection). Whether we choose blinking or solid ... what does that change from a mechanical perspective?
