I hope it wasnt a dealer that serviced this bike! I would take it back and have them fix it right. They may have the valve timing out. ALso, did they check the head, ot just replace the CCT? you may have bent a valve, damaged a piston, or a combination of things....

The CCT is probably installed fine (hard to mess that up) but it does sound like you have a bent valve (from the earlier one failing).

Remove the spark plugs, and do a compression test.
