I am new to riding this motor cycle. It's a 2003 drifter 800.How long do u run your choke out? The reason I'm asking is I was having issues with popping backfiring and missing. We changed the plugs and put new air filter on it. I cranked it and let it sit in driveway with choke out for bout 2 mins. I took off on it and it did the same thing. I got to the end of the road and it died. So I pulled the choke back out and took off bout 3 miles up the road and it was fine then I pushed the choke back in for the ride back home and it did fine. Apparently they are very sensitive about the choke. I was just wondering about everyone else.
