It would actually be something like: GET / HTTP/1.1 ? where the ? is the first letter of the most common first request header. A bit less reliable for a given target (due to needing to guess the header), but a bit more effective in general (due to not actually caring about the domain).

The ? is the 17th byte, unnecessary.

  Unless 1/n-1 record splitting is used that is common with TLS 1.0. Fortunately HTTP spec uses Windows line endings.
