there is no doctor around here. everyone (north america and australia, not to mention east timor and indonesia) is just guessing...
so i will bear with it.
what about the hipcup?
anyone has this experience?

Could be so many things..
Sounds like an airleak.. Are the carbs attached properly ? Also maybe some of the pipes for the airbox and otheres breathers might be lose or put together incorrectly.
As it is a new engine, the guy who installed it might have had to guess where certain pipes went.
Is the air filter nice and clean ????
If the bike runs nicely at speed, then unlikely to be the spark plugs/ignition.
Perhaps there is a carb issue which is another kettle of fish.
Try increasing the idle a little.
