There’s some colour there lol roll on my lowers being delivered! I’ve just changed the gearing-1 on front +2 on the back pulls a lot harder now! Any one else recommend any performance upgrades

Actually you have gone too far with your gearing change.
I say this because when you do the math (don't hate me.... ) what you end up with is your 2nd gear is close enough to call the same as the stock gearing in 1st. this follows through the gear box. Your 3rd is stock 2nd and so on.
So in the end it is the same as running the stock gearing one gear lower in the gearbox. Which means all you have really done is made 1st all but unusable and got rid of the overdrive is 6th, which can be handy if you ever hit the motorway.
You would be better off using either the -1 up front or the +2 in the rear but using both just slows the bike down.

No worries, at least you guys get what I am saying. Some folks just don't get it.
As for changing the gearing, go for it. Just use either the +2 in the rear or -1 in the front (which equals around +3 in the rear)
I ran the +2 for a while but with my set up now I'm back to stock gearing.
What you do need to look at since the gearing is so close (and maybe try both choices to see which works best for you) is the changes to the chassis.
The +2 will give you a shorter wheelbase while the -1 will make it longer.
Yes the changes are small but you might be surprised how much difference it makes on this bike.

first of id change that gearing . first will be useless so its like having a 5 speed gearbox..
flywheel wise ,assuming you are uk based for postage costs. i do an exchange service to your door for £75. folks send me the standard one, i have one sitting ready to go, i change your inner bearing over into the machined one and post it back the next day
