Hi fellow TWs!

I just got my bike a few days ago! Falling in love with it!

The problem i had was starting up the bike.

How do i start a cold engine correctly.

With the ignition and the switch and the choke. Especially the choke.

I do not know the right way of using the choke.

Pulling it all the way or halfway or not using it at all.

Much appreciated with your guy's help! Thanks!

I pretty much always pull mine out all the way unless it has been recently run.

Let it idle a little until engine speeds up, then push it in half way.

Hop on, then push it in the rest of the way after a quarter mile or so.
