749s fueling mod

took my 04 749s in for it's first annual service yesterday and mentioned that it keeps cutting out at junctions/roundabouts etc sometimes with a pop from the exhaust. also that the throttle is like an on/off switch when trying to gently apply power mid corner which is unsettling the bike.
i was told this model has a defect and needs an ecu mod and possibly new throttle bodies all replaced under warranty but as the bike was purchased new at DK motorcycles (not a dealer) and therfore not an 'official' import they would not do it and it's up to DK to sort it out.
it will cost at least £600 to sort and if it needs throttle bodies god knows how much.
i'm not very happy as it's not even a component failure but a factory recognised defect which DK couldn't possibly sort out as they dont have the equipment.
has anyone had a similar fueling/dealer problem with an 04 749s?
