    Choke Position

    Hi all gsers Ihave a question about the choke , i know this has been asked before but i cant find it,what position is the choke on and which is off, on my honda rebel the choke is on when it's all the way to the right, is it the same on a 86 gs550 i may not have the idle mixture right yet, but it seems to idle faster when it's all to the left, also on my gs550's choke lever theres an arrow pointing to the left which makes me wonder.

    Thanks !

    Assuming that the lever is on the left side controls then full left is full choke. Another words clock wise is choke and counter clockwise is choke off.

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

      That's the way mine is - left is to start, right is to run.

      Down at the carbs, pulling out the left side of the bike (sitting on it) is to start, pushing in to the right is to run.
