Possibly a dumb question

So, today I bought an 03 250. When we fired it up it idled REAL high. I looked at the handle to see if the choke was open and the choke arrows were worn off. He insisted that all the way back (toward the driver) was choke off. I'm pretty sure that is choke on but since this is my first Suzuki, I didn't argue. He adjusted the idle on the throttle cable to try and compensate for the high idle (didn't help). If he has in fact, been riding it with the choke open, will that cause and damage to the engine? I rode it around and didn't seem to notice any issues except maybe it was a little sluggish.

Thanks,
