FCR Cold Starting

[DockingPilot]

I may or may not have an issue here Eddie, tell me your wisdom oh great one.

Husky TE610

60-70 DEGREES OUTSIDE.

When I start her up cold, I can almost get her to start with no choke but not quite. So I pull the choke button and she lights right up. After about 15 seconds she starts to tell me to turn off the the choke, I do and she idles to warm just fine. I also notice that when I do pull the choke button, the engine does not idle quite as high as it once did if that matters. When underway, the bike seems to run great to me.

Do I have an issue ?

it should require the choke any time the motor is started for the first time of the day or after it has sat for any length of time.

yours sounds 100% normal.
