Default F3 bogging down when cold.

Hey guys. Hokay, I will try to describe this as best as possible. I have a 95 CBR F3 with about 23,000 miles on it. It has been running great up until last week. Since last tuesday, I have to choke it quite a bit more than usual to get it warmed up to keep it running. Once it was warm it runs great. But, when I get on the interstate, and the airflow cools down the temp quite a bit, it starts to bog down again, and sometimes dies. If I pull over, choke it, and get it running again, and let it warm up, it is fine. This happens over and over again. Let it warm up, ride, airflow cools it, bogs, pullover, let it warm up, ride...etc. It does the same thing whens it is bone cold from being parked. And when the choke is on, it is at like 5-6000 rpm. It ran like a champ up until just last tuesday. The only thing I can think of is I powerwashed it Monday night for the rally.

It's parked now in a friends garage about 40 miles away. I at least want to get it home under its own power. Any suggestions? TIA!
