Warmup

Just wondering what your thoughts on warmup are. I noticed even on a hot day the bike may need to use the choke to get going. I find using the choke going down the road annoying because it is running at higher base idle rpms, and I can't hear my power usage in the gears, and it's easy to kill it. Yesterday I instead started it up in neutral and flipped the choke all the way on and let it sit idling at that higher choke speed for a couple minutes and then shut off the the choke completely to drive off. Seemed to work much better, thought I wanted to verify I wasn't damaging the engine leaving it idling high from the choke like that for a few minutes sitting.
