Got the same problem with my newly acquired 2002 600. If I sit in neutral with the bike warm it revs smoothly but on the road has the standard faults except sometimes it is reluctant at higher revs as well. My TPS is fine, carbs were balanced recently by the previous owner but on inspection I have 9E plugs in (these are for a warmer climate as I understand) so have ordered some 8Es, along with a new air filter. If this doesn't work I'm going to do plug caps, petrol additive then carb heater hoses. I'll update as I progress on the off chance that you are still having snags.
Cheers

Carb balance does wonders to a bike, but only if the air filter was good when it was done.
I balanced my carbs once with a stuffed up air filter and it ran very ropey, until i cleaned the air filter then did it again.
Doubt the different grade plugs will make any difference, they both cover our climate.
