Your motor might be hydro locked with gas if the bike has sat for a long time. Pull the spark plugs and try to start it. PUT RAGS OVER THE SPARK PLUG HOLES, disconnect the plugs from the wires. Chaz Moto DC

You have the classic symptom of a dirty carb, has the bike been sitting ? What is happening is you are compensating for more fuel by activating the choke, you can try some "Techron" you get it at your local auto parts store its usually in the fuel injector cleaner area, this can sometimes dislodge and clean the jets, if that doesn't work then I would have the carburetor clean properly.

the pilot(idle) jet is clogged,need to do a good carb clean/rebuild(carb kit).that should take care of your problem.hope that helps.
