Update!
Right, messed about with changing the pilot jet for a richer one. This got the engine running so much better so was as tep in teh right direction. Engine still not perfect though.
Soooo, gave up and have put a Keihin on it. It's the carb the previous owner had onthe bike with a 300cc barrel/piston instead of 272cc. This carb has transformed the bike. It runs so much better and is a lot easier to ride - it does what you expect when you open the throttle! No idea of jetting as I just threw it on and it worked. If I need to take it apart to clean it at some point I'll update with jetting specs.
Used VHST anybody?!
