Hey guys, dont know if anyone remembers my vacuum issue but i got it fixed and the bike runs/idles great.

I did notice my choke cable snapped at one part by the handlebars, so i had to disconnect it. Reason being when i turned the handlebars it would engage the choke during the ride.

MY question is, what are some tricks i can do to get the bike to start without the choke, while the bike is cold. When i try i usually have one chance to start it and mess with the throttle/idle adjustment. If it dies then i have to use ether to get it started and mess with the idle adjustment for a minute while it warms a bit. Is there something i can do until i can replace the choke cable so i can start my bike cold?
