A sprung seat is better on a rigid, of course it's the first thing I got rid of, in hind sight, and spending a bit of time on my wife's T100, the sprung seat is better. You can just let the bike float around under you, none of that jarring stuff is transferred to the rider. The BTH is a classy mag, I used to snap up every one I came across...but good pickups were hard to find. The Monoblock was a superior carb, the slide is supported over a block, so wear is not really a problem like the concentric, but the slide is thin and easily damaged. Check the idle jet is fully seated. If it's got an oil pressure telltale button, you'll always have an oil weep - before smartphones and GPS were available to us, we could distract ourselves from traffic conditions by checking oil pressure while riding.
