I would certainly have the dealer take a look at the bike.
I'd have to ride your bike to see if your drive line lash, or throttle play is excessive but these chain drive cush hubbed fi fueled bikes do not like to have their throttles chopped. They reward those who are smooth with their on/ off throttle transitions.
If a fork seal is leaking you should see brown oil running down a fork leg or at least drooled all over the inner fork tube, and not just a light film. Having both fork seals leaking at the same time would be rare indeed. Not saying it's impossible, but in 17 years in the business I have never seen it. Usually it's one, but you generally replace them both while you have it apart.
There is an issue with your idle. It should be 1100 rpm +- 100 rpms, but it is not adjustable. Sounds like it could be an air leak someplace. Definitely have your dealer check that but if you installed a PCV and the issue showed up after that, that would be suspect IMO.
Keep us informed as to what your dealer says.
