Hi there,
After some cold has set in, i found myself needing the choke more and more on my 06 Baby Varadero.
After i pull the choke and start the bike, the rpms are at first around 2k, after 1-2 seconds the drop under 1k.
Imo the choke valve is pulling itself back way too fast.
Is this normal or should i be concerned?
What should i look out for?
Happy riding,
-Dan
And It's broken. Again...

I'm not very familiar with the 125 but I think the choke should stay on until you release it !

According to the manual there is an adjuster under the rubber cover below the knob.

Does that adjust the friction or the end stop position ?
I wonder what happen if I click on this - Ooops

I believe it adjusts friction, if I remember correctly.
