I seem to be the only one that re-jetted after the K&N filter, but I also put a set of Delkevic cans on it to. I just had the bike on a dyno and the findings showed is was running too lean. Here is a sound byte of my bike before the re-jetting.
Delkevic 350mm cans on CBR1000F - YouTube

with really expensive K&N cleaning kit solution

or

soapy water ( because it's the same only cheaper option )

Then re-oil the media until it goes from a blue gray to a red colour (if using
K&N oil that is it will turn red )
