So i am having the same starting issue with my wife's 250r after improper storage (completely my fault). Will only run with the choke fully on.
After i removed the carbs i took them to the Kawi dealership to be cleaned and set up properly. Involved drilling out something? No jet kit

Anyway, i reinstalled the carbs and the bike still will only run with the choke on but now its a real struggle to even get it started. As soon as i touch the throttle the bike dies. If i even look at the choke lever wrong the bike dies or will not start. Its now puffing brown smoke out the exhaust which it never did before as well.

HELP, before i have to call the dealer to pick it up. I go back to Afghanistan in 25 days so i really want to get this fixed.
