Burhan,
Your jetting is probably too rich since you haven't changed the stock jetting. Switching to the Lectron would cost less than the smart carb and be all you need. Rob has them in stock. I doubt a KTM 300 would vibrate less than the GG.

You might want different pegs. I reversed a set of pivot pegs. This lowered the pegs and moved them back a bit. I found this made the bike more comfortable. A tall seat would help you.

I use mostly front brake when I'm riding and just stab the back brake for a few seconds to adjust my speed before a corner. Maybe one of those expensive Clake controls would be useful (combined clutch/rear brake).

I hear you on the linkage. It is a chore to service, but not that bad once you are used to the procedure. Since you are considering spending money on a KTM, you should talk to Rob and see if he can get you a test ride on a 13 GG that he set up. The pricing is probably pretty close.
Neil
