Question no mid or high power

I am new to this site, so hopefully I am doing this right.
I have a 94 gsx-r750w. Bought as a basket bike and have assembled all but bodywork. All Is stock except the V+H slip-on. I do not know much about sport bikes, but have worked on old jap cruisers for 8 years.

Problem:
Bike idles a little rough, have to adjust pilot screw yet. I rode it the other day and it has all its balls, until 4200. At this point it feels like there is only a single cylinder BSA engine in it. It does not sputter, backfire, afterfire, or knock. It runs perfectly smooth, but has absolutely no acceleration. It took me 1/2 mile to get to 50 mph.

Repairs:
Carbs rebuilt and set by myself, fresh plugs (however ran with pod filters for a couple weeks in the yard, they seem a nice light tan color), wiring has been checked for wear or chaffing. Will be replacing plugs tonight jsut to be sure.

If anyone has any ideas, let me know.

Thanx in advance... Gadget
