BUT!!! NEW PROBLEM!

theres this intermittent misfire(??) or fuel starv or timing issue - I dont know - all of a sudden (either on hard acceleration or cruising) the bike just cuts out - then right back on - almost like running out of gas - but defintley NOT out of gas - New map, or maybe got more electrical probs?

wtf? plug old map in and see if prb still occurs?
go over all connections, check plugs, and battery terminals... try different map.
Seek out a performance shop to tune the bike right and give you the performance your bike has hidden within.
A carb will seem like it is going to shut off like you describe if jetted too lean or wrong needle.

in this case, seems to have been a loose battery ground - saw some evidence of arcing at the terminal -tightened and rode fora fewhours yesterday, and this am in weatherand no 'cut out'

new map and gaskets have really done the trick on how the bike is runnin too
