Another test ride again today and felt a bit smoother but still not quite right. It still seems a bit too on/off even at higher revs (around 5k). Definitely smoother at lower revs though. I've adjusted it down from the 2k rpm to about 1600 this evening, so will test again tomorrow.

Only downside I can feel is I can't be as lazy with my gear changes. It's more sensitive to being in the right gear and needs shifting up sooner than it did before.

Possibly needs the throttle body synchronising looking at? It's only done just under 13k miles? I'm still wondering if the push throttle cable being slightly too tight would have this effect too? I can't adjust any more slack into it up top with the adjuster, so I'd have to back it off at the throttle body if I do anything. Worth me trying to back it off and readjust?
