Default bike wont start when cold

well it does start but i need to spend atleast 5 minutes cranking at it and playing with the choke to get the bike to start..

im thinking it is the rectifier but at the same time, lights and everything turn on when i turn the bike on.. and when the bike is warm it starts straight up..

Someone on here commented about something similar.

Said they resolved it by leaving the fuel in the, "off" position, bringing the choke back about 3/4 and starting it. I had some issues starting mine whenI got it as well, but I changed the plugs almost immediately and haven't had a problem since.

Yep your right bout that, apart from the plugs, don't touch the throttle, pull on the choke, leave the petrol off.
