Lucky to find an EXUP valve assembly that's usable for such a low price.
Workshop manual shows little to nothing of the Exup system.
I'd advise using "Fowlers" parts screen to check you have all the Exup components, very often key parts are missing, like the thrust washer & conical spring under the cable pulley.
Manual does however show the cable routing from servo to valve a big arc from servo to valve.
Run some light oil down both cables to ensure smooth operation too, I use extra thick chainsaw chain lube in a dropper for cables, super cheap too.
It's vital cables are correctly adjusted for correct valve operation, when adjusted, add a wee bit of slack in both cables for any heat expansion.
What did you lube the valve bushings with?
Some kind of a Ceramic high temp grease is probly the best, I bought some, not yet tried it, I've always used proper copper slip, avoid the cheapo copper greases, very low copper content, they'll burn off in no time, proper copper slip seems to function ok & last between valve services, use copper slip in the valve pulley cable grooves & cable end holes, correct cable adjustment is vital, leave a wee bit of cable slack for expansion & you should be good.
Performance of a stock bike aint that impressive, you're only getting around 120bhp from a good motor, less if she's a high miler, power curve is fairly linear until you fit an Ivans MB kit with all the mods, then Woohoo hold on brother, if not done already, check valve clearances for peace of mind?
