Default Hello! - EC Power delivery?

Hi Guys,
Briefly after 20 yrs of trials, then 3 yrs racing, I've decided to have ago at Enduro. I wanted a late bike but couldn't afford an orange one so I ended up with 2010 EC300. Rode it half a dozen times now, including 1 extreme enduro and I have to say I'm very much impressed! Other than the usual maintenance, it seems solid and hasn't missed a beat so far
This is my first 2 stroke like this as in with a power band, so I presumed its just how they are and there's not alot I can do about it. Basically the power seems to come in very fiercely. Like when I try to build the revs up, attacking a bank or steep hill, as soon as the power band comes in it either spins up or send me onto the moon! Looking at other posts on here, there seems to be some amount of adjustment with the power band mechanism to smooth out the power. I'm will to loose abit of top end to make it smoother if that's the case. Also my bike has the very pronounced rattle on tick over which I here can be caused by the PV?
Sorry to waffle on a bit but any tips would be very welcome
Sam
