Running Rough...

Hi,

2001 R6 carb model...

Bought after being left sitting for a couple of years... Had to clean carbs and replaced float valves.

So I get this beast running and its not running right, took it out and filled fuel tank and it broke down, seemed to have run out of gas so I got it home and sprayed start ya bastard (ether) in the intake and it ran, I then found out it had no fuel pump so I bought & fitted new pump, filter & some fuel line... It runs really rough when its cold, bit hard to start, won't idle under 2k rpm which makes riding it difficult...

Anyway, my main concern is that once its up to full temp, it cuts out and won't start until its cooled down... I'm pulling carbs apart again this weekend to clear pilots in an attempt to fix the idle issue and I'm thinking maybe a dodgy CDI? Any other ideas?
