Have to choke even after riding for miles. shut off and let sit for 5 minutes, it's like it's been sitting outside in the cold overnight all over again. have to ride another few miles before the spitting and sputtering stops and can then take the choke off. No trouble starting, just taking off when cold or after shut off for a few minutes.
Hi its me again your problem sounds like you could have a slight air leak from your carb to manifold seal,this would make your motor run lean ,thereby requiring more fuel to richen the mixture to help on start up,the seal at fault is easy to replace with the min of tools and is sited on the rear of the carb where it is just pushed over the manifold and the carb is pushed into it,being made of rubber it is prone to cracking hope this cures your problem regards ian
