The pro fst or carb heaters won't help with the cold starting issue, carb icing occurs when the bike has been running for a short while.
Most likely you just need to get the choke right before pressing the starter. Key on, choke full on, don't touch the throttle at all, press the starter, you should at least have it firing as it turns over!
A good battery charge is essential, and a new set of plugs can make a big difference as well, they're not expensive!
