Depends on the time of day,In the morning after sitting all night and havin'
it a bit on the chilly side I give her 1/2 - full choke for a couple of
seconds, then hold the throttle a little open until warm. Leaving work, no
choke, just hold throttle open for a couple of seconds. But I know my carbs
are out a bit.

Hey All,
I was interested in hearing how JB started his bike....that is with no choke
and only a twist of the throttle to squirt some love juice into the carbs.
Charlie I think you said you start it the same way?
As for me.....on both my bikes I set the choke about 3/4 and then take my
hand right off the throttle. The bikes start right up. If I give so much as
a hint of throttle then the bike floods and is tough to start.
I've never thought about trying to start the bike with no choke and only a
twist of throttle. Would be interesting to see how the girls start under
this procedure.
Of course this has no significance to Looper life but I always find it
interesting to hear about the similarities in these old machines.
Regards...Ian
p.s. Andy....as I was writing this I could hear Frank Zappa's tune "Dynamo
Hum" playing in the back of my head. Do you remember the song?
".....Couldn't say where she was comin' from but I just met a lady named
Dynamo Hum.....She strolled on over said look her bum...I got a $40 dolla
bill says you can't make me....."
Love that song....and I hereby claim "Dynamo Hum" as my 70 Ambo's name :-)

And I do use my choke when starting up. Why? you might ask. Because the original choke lever is the only handlebar control that works without having to move your hand off the grips..... Bruce |
