The bike starts fine, leave choke at 4k revs for a min or so..
When i put it into first got to 4 revs (no choke), and then i pull away, or i would like to. as i release the clutch the revs drop to 0 and the bike stalls if i dont catch it in time.
I have to get the bite when im moving now, any ideas?

rotate your right wrist through the lateral axis............ie, give it some more throttle!

I'd leave a bit of choke on for a couple more mins (whilst riding), before closing it off completely.

I would be checking the carbs, but it could be just winter - give the bike some more warm-up time

I would also agree that your not giving your bike choke for long enough. Getting the carbs ballanced is a good idea.

Get the carbs cleaned out with Red-Ex or something... There is also some stuff you can get that stops the carbs from icing up... Silkolene, I think....
Ask Bella - She uses it...

Thats what you like to see, good tec support!
Im not too sure where you get carbicing from when its obvious that the bike is lacking from choke before being ridden off.

It all sounds a bit testnichal to me. Leave the bike in the garage till the sun comes out!

Carb icing is a problem that usually happens when you're on the move.
