Bad conscience causing the bad insomnia? :dunno: :-0)

So, i decided to get to know my bike and take it apart (with a manual). Got down to the filter (which seemed the standard fitted one to me, no K&N label)
It looked ok, but not sure if the backside is meant to be perfectly clean or not, it looked a bit sooty, but not bad. I cleaned it with air and tapped it out.
Got three of the spark plugs out, a couple were a bit sooty, but nothing like the pic in the manual to suggest there were real problems. Couldn't get the last one on the right as its behind a pipe that wouldn't shift.
So its possible that one is the problem i suppose. Put redex into a new tankful and drove to london, felt marginally better i thought, smoother after 4000 revs but when i hit low speeds and traffic it was back to being a juddering, chugging monster, very hot and difficult to ride at low speed, had to keep over-revving to keep it going, and stop it stalling.
Would 1 cylinder under performing/misfiring cause this? Never had an FI warning light, and have checked the injectors and cleaned them too.
I suppose i've got to put her in the shop for proper assessment.
Thanks for your help so far, loom fix sounds expensive, what does it mean a complete re wire?:bang:
carry on the sentence AndyAs above, loom fix is mandatory I'm afraid - if it isn't causing problems now it will at some point. Took me about 45 minutes.

Just a thought ..... could it be plug leads ? Or anything electrical ??
Not sure if a weak spark would cause similar symptoms ?? And under load the spark maybe stronger ??
