Took another look at the bike today. I put a new air box temp sensor in no then went to fit new plug caps but I'd bought the wrong ones! Decided to try and balance up the TBs with my carbtune with its cleaned out lines and freshly polished rods. Seemed to get them pretty close but couldn't get them bang on? The bike does have a low revs misfire though? I'll get a set of plug caps and see if that cures it, but will all the plumbing being messed about with and unplugged and a new sensor fitted I think a good run is in order to get everything settled down.

The misfire is noticeable when holding it about 2k revs you can here a cyclinder kicking in and out, by it does seem to pull strongly as the revs build? Anyone had anything similar?
