Is it normal to experience a hunting/slight jerkiness when on part throttle, say 30mph in 3rd gear?

yes, change down a gear to increase revs

you'll be in a "lean zone" in the fuel map where emissions test are done

Cheers.

Has anyone ever had a remap to alleviate this?

Yes. My 15 RS was 'herky jerky' in 2nd in 30's (closer to the closed loop mode than 3rd at this speed) and a bit lumpy in 3rd due to low revs.

A Hilltop tune left the bike with both gears good for a steady 30mph. Hilltop tunes effectively get rid of the closed loop, emissions testing mode and reconfigure the O2 sensors to temperature sensors.

I also get a performance increase. A 6th gear roll on now feels more like a 5th gear roll on used to.

Hope that helps.
