You said its fine when you go slow, but when you put your foot down lots more fuel tries to get doen the fuel lines/filter so if it was blocked it might affect this

Did you ever get to the bottom of this throttle lag problem cos I've had the same thing that's been bugging me for ages and nothing I do seems to affect it.

My MY00 classic does the same.
When I blip the throttle there's always a slight delay (1/4 sec ish), then the revs jump up as expected. It's always done it, I thought it was normal and work around it.
Flippin' annoying/stupid though.
