Maybe check the valves...check for intake leaks at throttle bodies...air filter, of course.

Are you getting a good, steady sync for the throttle bodies, or does it move around?
TPS sensor is another thought. Maybe a leak-down or compression check, if she has some big miles on her... ...edit: Check that the throttle advance/choke cable isn't hanging. This can happen inside the distributor box.

I have today managed to get the bike into my local BMW dealer - At no cost it was discovered to be the Stick coils - they sold me a pair from a bike in the showroom as they had none in stock. "Fantastic" - Problem sorted and back on the road earning money in less than 30 mins. Brill customer service.
   Thanks four your help folks
