Sounds like the pilot jets are partially blocked. Try some STP carb cleaning jollup in the tank and overdose it.
Main jets open up around 5K which is why you won't see it when pining it!
Pretty certain you're right with that diagnosis fella, ran a load of carb cleaner through the bike for the last couple of days, and it's definitely helped a great deal. It's a bit fluffy now up to about 3k, but doesn't miss cylinders like it used to! THink I might try leaving it on my drive on the centre stand with the throttle held open a little bit, see if running a load of redexed up fuel through it helps matters further! If it doesn't, looks like I'll be learning how to strip a set of carbs down!

Leaving it to run on tickover for half an hour will be good for it as would a run out but short shifting everywhere and keeping the revs down - reckon 3k tops!!
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
