Hi, welcome and congratulations on the new Fazer. 
Sounds like yours has the full K-tech shock upgrade which looks like this, minus spring:

Footpeg and seat relationship isn't affected by jacking up the rear end since both are fixed to the main frame. However, having the rear end higher might be throwing your weight forward and that could be contributing to the hip/back issue. I'd give it a while longer to get used to the ergos, though. Higher bars on the Fazer and a bit of seat re-shaping might be worth considering if it still remains less uncomfortable than you desire.
Ditto everything VNA said about the EXUP. Get in there soon and check/copper grease everything.
The tyre combo isn't a common mix but if it rides OK, stay with it. I personally prefer to run matched pairs.
Cheers!
Mike
