So i just got round to balancing the carbs again and sure enough they were not level, even though I did them a few weeks ago.
I presume the combination of blocked drainage/breather pipes with emulsified oil from the air box, and a dirty K&N air filter gave me a false reading, so by freeing the airways and doing them again has resulted in much smoother running, and I also managed to get them much more level than I ever have before.
Mind you I had fun and games for a while as I had kinked the fuel pipe when turning the tank around so the readings were a bit iffy, then it ran like a pig and conked out.
Taken it for a spin and it feels much better and it would appear that my shivering sounding problem has gone as well.
