Changed the plugs and cleaned the K&N pod filters.  What a difference!  So much smoother!  My hands were far less numb after my 37 mile ride into work this morning.  Now to sell my first born child and make a large parts order with RPM for vibrantors, filter adapter, fork seals, etc... :lol:

I still suspect that my pilot circuit is running a bit rich due to stumbling under super slow acceleration around town at barely open throttle.  The PO had the bike Dynojetted, and I noticed that none of the pilot screws appear to be adjust the same.  Sometime in the next few days I'll reset them all to 2.5 turns out from seated and see if that effects anything.

Adjusted the pilot screws last night.  All of them were between 8 and 12 turns out! Seated them, and after some test running have them all 3 turns out.  Seems to be less low speed partial throttle stuttering.  We'll see how my ride to work goes today.
