What Are the Consequences of Keeping the Motorcycle Choke Open for a Long Time?

[DelDelilah]

Keeping the motorcycle choke open for a long time can cause the engine to stall automatically and severely damage the spark plug. Here is additional information: 1. Function of the choke: It adjusts the air-fuel mixture ratio. Normally, a certain proportion of gasoline mixed with a specific amount of air is sufficient for riding. In cold weather, combustion becomes more difficult, so the proportion of gasoline in the air needs to be increased to facilitate engine startup. Once the engine is running, the mixture can return to the normal ratio, i.e., by opening the choke. 2. Choke positions: The motorcycle's choke has three positions—upper, middle, and lower. During startup, move it to the uppermost position. After warming up and during normal riding, move it to the lowermost position. The middle position is generally used as a transition during warm-up and is rarely or seldom used.
