after a wait for the slip-on exhaust to arrive and finding a break to install it, I now have my Akrapovic exhaust - it does a great job smoothing out the engine as I apply throttle, at low RPM and high RPM - the torque seems less twitchy but more powerful - and of course the exhaust note is noteable !

the only glitch is that cold starts seems a bit more difficult - in fact with the throttle cold idle set to max, the bike will start and cut out once or twice - has anyone else found this problem? what adjustments would help?

Check sparkplugs and ignition components...clean and gap plugs if they are single electrode style.
