Bin the kill switch mate, no amount of sealing and cleaning will make it work better, been there and got the T shirt.
The carb mod needs new float settings,drilling of carb body and praying to stop it leaking, the dealer will know how to do it easily. It will still leak abit but not pour, fit a 6-8 inch pipe on the overflow at the bottom of the carb and direct it under the swingarm or better still loop it up above the floats and back down. Dont leave the bike pointing downhill at any stage even slightly whilst stopped or it will mean 20 kicks to get it going and never leave the fuel tap on overnight.
Keep a good eye on the rear disc bolts, they come loose easy and can do some serious damage if one comes out.
I wish the bloody rear sprocket bolts would come undone so easy! but keep an eye on the top shock mount bolt and the frame strut bolts too these are my worst ones
If you pour boiling water on the sprocket bolt nuts this softens up
the threadlock and they will come out more easily!

My mates 07 bike was pouring fuel out at an alarming
rate the first time he took it out,so off came the carb
to have a look and found the cause of the problen
on this occasion to be the float bowl gasket!
It was sticking out into the bowl that much one of
the floats was fouling on it causing the thing to
stay stuck down.The gasket was correctly fitted
but was to wide so cut it down job done.
