#95223 Lone*Road* (User) Even the devil believes GOD exist! Senior Boarder Posts: 390 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   Full choke about 10 seconds, half choke another 10, by the time I go back inside to put up the cover for my bike and get back outside about two minutes later to go to work, my neighbors can set their clocks when I leave at 5:20 am. They are probably glad too, the Bub Jug Huggers are a little on the loud (but deep) side . I still don't get what all the SVS is all about.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #95257 roadhog1 (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 227 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   The jug huggers rock, i bet you wake up the whole neighborhood. I have them on my 06, if i left that early in the morning the neighbors probably wouldnt like me very much. roadhog1   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #95258 TMK (User) Sometimes Wrong But Never In Doubt Platinum Boarder Posts: 1251 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   If I leave early in the morning I roll down the drive with the choke out and key on and hit the starter just as I hit the street...that way the Cobras don't reverberate between my house and the neighbor's. Soon as I turn out of the neighborhood (block and a half) I go to half choke and then choke off within a mile, usually.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1802 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   Lately it's been about 70 degrees when I leave. I pull the knob all the way out and start it without twisting the throttle. Within a few seconds the idle drops and gets ragged just like flipping a switch. When that happens I go to 1/2 choke and ride off. All within 10 -15 secs. Within 1/2 mile push it all the way in and go. In the evening when the temps are in the 80's-90's I pull it out 1/2 way and start then ride off. Push it in within a 1/4 mile.   Logged     2006 Midnight   The administrator has disabled public write access. #95289 SobaCracka (User) It's best to eat crow while fresh.

Honestly, about a minute this time of year with enricher all the way out, then maybe a mile or so 1/2 out. During the winter, it can be a full five minutes. Odd thing is it used to warm up faster (idle increasing) before I pulled my AIS off. Still scratching my head over that one.   Logged     Earl in Catonsville, MD   The administrator has disabled public write access. #95294 Para (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 146 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   If I rode it the day before I just turn the ignition and start it, no choke. I am able to drive away after 10 to 15 seconds. If it has not been started for a few days 1/2 choke and start it, let it run for 10 to 15 seconds and drive away.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #95296 bthomas (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 627 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   Full choke to start and pull in to the driveway, half choke while I gear up, choke off and ride. Never timed it but I'm guessing <5 min. total. A little longer when it's cold since it takes longer to gear up for the weather.

If I let it just idle in the driveway depending on how cold it is outside. 5-10 minutes before all the oil is warmed up and the bike is ready to go.   Logged     Paul K&N, V&H Powershots, 185DJ, Stock Pilot, 3.25pms   The administrator has disabled public write access. #95318 Biker4Life (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 153 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   i try to keep it simple. i full choke her in the mornings for about 30 secs then let her idle no choke while i get my helmet gloves etc on, then i ride. i dont choke her at all in the afternoons...i just giver some gas and she cranks, then i let her idle no choke while i get gear on, then i ride!   Logged     Uga VII GO DAWGS, SIC \'EM!!   The administrator has disabled public write access. #95371 Tealw1 (User) What Sayeth the Brethren!!! Platinum Boarder Posts: 1532 Re:How long do you let your R* warm up b4 riding 9 Years, 8 Months ago   If I don't let mine warm up for at least 4-5 minutes, she complains. I've actually stalled it when giving it gas from a rolling stop (how embarassing) I've developed a routine of starting it then getting the gear on, usually that's long enough.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
