lack of power (running on 3??)

Thought I'd share this with you all incase you have a similar problem.
Basically I've had an intermittant problem with my bike for about 5 weeks, but is thankfully now fixed.
When starting the bike it was fine, but would idle a bit "lumpy". But once underload ie in gear it would not pull through the revs cleanly. Thought it maybe fuel or a carb issue? However I checked everything and couldn't find anything obivous? So I took it to a guy who did my rolling tuning and he checked it over......turned out to be a spark plug. I'm told that the plugs in the centre of the engine ie 2&3 can get excessively hot and can break down over time. Plugs replaced and now runs like a dream.
Wondering if anyone has had similar problems?
