Claude, hi!
I am thinking that I would like to get all the systems calibtrated when I get the valves checked, like in the 'fuel in moto'info.
I would like to go to Bob Brown's Melbourne Desmo, but its a a long way from me, so I was going to call Brad, The Bike Boy, out in Oakleigh. [Bob has my other motor awaiting me to bring out the new barrels & pistons for bike 2]
I wouldn't be surprised if throttles and CO2 settings were out.
[I recently cut open and fixed the TPS on my 928S4 , as it was not working at all.]
The DOCV had a tech day at Motologic, in Cambellfield.

They are racing Dukes in the Aust superbike series.
They sell "Bike Interceptor" http://www.bikeinterceptor.com/
a very interesting program, like Power Commander, that plugs between the ECU and the injectors. It then is remapped to sort out the fuel injection issues that are put in by the manufacturer to get past emmission testing, usually resulting in flat spots etc. There is another version that also does timing, but not needed according to them for a road bike. Should be underAUD $600.
The system really sorts out Harleys!
Long story, but after all the other stuff is sorted then I might like to give that a try. 
My bike is pretty rough too below 3000rpm, seems to be a characteristic  ,
I recently changed to NGK iridium plugs after I found a new NGK wouldn't fire under load in the cylinder. Sparked ok out but wouldn't work . My first dud plug. Anyway it does seem to run better on the iridiums, picks up from lower revs , below 3000, easier, exhaust sounds deeper, which is a surprise. Bike certainly feels like it got some go  , so I presume most other stuff is working as expected. I want to fit a 14 tooth cog as well, should help out in town.
The ceramic coating , is a coating on the inside and outside of the pipe. It reduces the amount of heat, not cool to touch! It also lessens the heat cycles, so exhausts last longer and it doesn't rust. The main reason was that my pipes looked pretty dirty and i wanted to reduce some heat inder my bum. I am putting some DEI Titanium Exhaust wrap around the vertical cylinder to keep heat off the shock and my bum!
It cost AUD$230 to have the exhaust, collets, ring blasted and coated.

call the Blast Factory, Andrew, 9354 8021, 10 Audrey St, Nth Coburg [Melbourne]
They also media blast anything, so far wheels ,fairings, frame, lots of bits.....
and Coburg Powder Coaters , 9354 9154, is around the corner.
Competition coatings aslo do all those piston coatings, heat on top and oil for the sides. I have read some motors being fully built with all the coatings, but again the staff worker thinks it wouldn't make much difference for a road motor, still its only money!
ciao
