i hate saying this but if it was working fine before hand then you have done something while in there.

my suggestion (for what its worth) go and retrace your steps. if this means stripping back the work you have done then so be it, that's how the cookie crumbles.

i have on occasion missed stuff and had to do exactly the same. it's amazing what you find you have missed or disturbed and my favourite is not connecting one of the vacuum pipes that come out of the air box for the idle sensor as they are thin and easily missed. bike runs like a bag off poo and throws an FI.

when doing any maintenance that requires lifting the tank, leave the tank raised till you have made sure that the bike is running that way you know what you have been messing with and what to look for. if bike starts running like a bag of poo once the tank is down again then you know it's somewhere in that procedure and can be a crushed breather/vacuum/fuel pipe.
