Probably your tune. You need to tune when the weather changes. Sounds like the LSN is too rich. How does it perform at WOT. If it is sluggish at WOT I would try leaning the HSN first. If your WOT performance is good I would start leaning the LSN until it responds.

If your tune is good then check your slipper.

or your stock clutch just sucks.

Upgrade to a vented CB and aluminum shoes with 1.0 or 1.1 springs and you'll be a happy camper.
