Arrow Throttle pick-up jerky

Hi Guys,

I am a sympathetic rider and always feed the power back in gently after closing the throttle (if you want me to do wheelies etc., you will wait a looong time). My problem is that my 2001 curvy can be very abrupt when I open the throttle. It almost feels like the throttle has too fast an action to be smooth and that the throttle butterflies are stuck shut - more than I have experienced before due to suction. I am fitting a comfort kit and expect the lack of weight on my hands to make it easier to do fine control.

Do you guys think this is normal and something I just have to get used to or is it something that can be tweaked out somehow. I feel the carbs are well synchronised and the bike is not running badly, so whaddyareckon?
