Just a few random thoughts
Why did you replace the throttle cables in the first place?
you balanced the TB.s after that, have you rechecked the balace at idle again and is it OK , and again at part throttle.
I would be nervous changing/replacing so many things at once do one at at time otherwise you could well end up introducing more problems.
Did it ever run OK after its lay up and service ?
I would suggest you check the base settings again esp the valve clearance and TB .
Buy yorself a compression gauge while your at halfors they are not expensive and check the compression,otherwise you could be wasting your time if its too low or uneven,likewise the fuel pressure a basic test you have to to eliminate the high and low pressure side of the fuel system do these and report back
best of luck

well after all that and a day ****ign about i found the problem , i had systimatically swapped all the possibles and then gone for a ride so see if i had fixed it,
my bike now has a complete new fuel system, injectors , pump , lines regulator , air filter , airbox probe , and a butt load of other bits
i havd a shiney new compression tester and the bike was fine
ive done everything and as a last resort i went to put the origina cat and can on only to find the exhaust sensor half out!!!!!!
poxy thing
screwed it back in and stuck the original can on and low and behold she runs perfectly!!!!
so all it was doing was sucking in fresh air past the sensor causing it to think it runnig dangerously lean and maxing he mixture!!
all back to normal now.
hurar , cheers for the advice people !
