Really dumb question: How do I get my choke to work?

[YellaMonsta]

Really dumb I know, I can't work my bloomin choke on my 95 M600.

I was pulling it up twisting it and a combination of the two... I didn't manage to get it to work and thought I was breaking it.

Shamefully I have to ask you guys here.

Pull the lever!!

If the pull knob on the choke's not working, it may be the cable or mechanism at the carbs is seized. Should pull in/out pretty easily unless something's fooked?

May be that the cable needs lubing - had a similar problem on my old M600. A bit of cable lube sorted it out.

[YellaMonsta]

Yeah I pulled it but it was stuck. I remeber the seller twisting it slightly as he pulled it up. But I felt like I was breaking it.

I think I need to lube it as no way should the choke feel stuck like that.

I thought I was doing something wrong.

With the choke on my M600, you had to twist it once you had pulled it up to keep it in place, I think thats quite normal. Cable lube should certainly help loosen it up a bit.

swap it fir the later twisty bar mounted one.

Well I'll see if I can improve it by lubing it first.
