I DO NOT, use the ‘Choke’, unless it is really, Really, REALLY, cold.
I Took a little piece of alum, about 1/16” thick. ( or -) Crack open the throttle, (Engine Off) Put it between the throttle stop and carb. And start.
What it does, is Start the engine, with OUT, putting gobs of gas, on the cylinder, it Starts, let it idle (UP RIGHT), while I am sitting on it, put on my jacket, and helmut. then, with out moving they throttle, go down the 900’ drive, in 1st, about 12 mph, stop at the Co Rd. Look and go. (Using the throttle).
Can count on one hand, (and have 3 fingers left over), the times I need the Choke.
The little shim, then attached a little very durable cord, to a place, so it just drops out when I open the Throttle, Then it is their next time.
Other thing that possibly works, Is that when coming home, I shut off the Pedcock, (Raptor), (Learned where to do this on the road), so the gas in the Carb, is 1/2 or 3/4 Less. Then going, first thing, is turn on the Pedcock, while rolling it out of the shed, So it is, ‘fresh’ gas in the Carb.
Try it.
