Something strange going on here, i (think i) know Peter he's detail minded and exact.
(Boomhut ???) Something must have slipped by him.
Soo ... huge risk of dismissing the cause but if valves, cam timing, carb boots and carb cleaning and sync are ok ....
Peter, 2500-3000rpm is the point that the mechanical advancer should be at the max.
Can it be it's stuck ?
Is this the blue GS1000 with GS1100 pistons/cylinders and nicle frame and "The Clang" modification ?
We need pictures

If you go thru every possibilty on a carb problem, the solution is an ignition problem1978 GS 1000 (since new)

Cam Timing, Checked By me and Yordie , half a tooth off the lead, thats odd because of the new chain.
Carb Cleaned, (both sets) checked channels with breakcleaner. New Orings ( http://www.cycleorings.com/VMkit.html)
Carb Boots, new O-rings and used new seat from Cruzin Image
Carbs are Synchronized.
0.5 oversized pistons and rings an Cilinders
Peter, 2500-3000rpm is the point that the mechanical advancer should be at the max.

(used the front brake when cornering)

Say HI to Jordy.
Pictures, okay. Greetings from Yordie.

Those igniters are sturdy but can fail, causing strange issues.
Have you checked the connectors are clean and it gets good 12v and ground ?Rijk
