Hello, my 98 @ has always failed to idle for more than 5..15 seconds with the choke on before the engine dying with mega-rich fuel mixture. "Always" means the past 20k mls I've had the bike. It has now just over 40 k on clock.
The bike starts great hot or cold, and the revs are initially roughly 1500..2000 rpm with the choke on fully. If it is turned off the max setting even a notch, the engine just stops. Starting from cold I normally turn off the choke almost immediately and then it is the normal question to manually keeping up the revs at 1200 or so for the first mile, until the engine stays idling under it's own steam.
Is there a way to adjust idle speed with the choke on?
Other than this the engine works like a clock and returns just under 5 liter/100 km (approx. 55 mpg) on my daily commute.
