Chocking (Enrichment)
Do you choke each time you start? My bike sits for a good 4-7 hours once I get to work, do i use the enrichment each time I start it? If i dont i would have to keep gassing it until it warms up, otherwise it dies, but once its slightly warm, it stays runnning.
Let me know.

RE: Chocking (Enrichment)
I always have to choke to start when it's cold.
The key to its use is to get the choke off as fast as you can , while having it be safely rideable.
When my bike had the stock jetting , I had to choke it for a while longer than I do now.
After I was done jetting the carb , the choke gets used alot less and I can ride with no choke in about a minute.
My jet combo is in my sig at the bottom.
Just get it off as fast as you can , you'll get the feel of it pretty quickly.
