assuming the vent lines for the carb are clear and the intake is clear the best way I have found to cure the cold weather blues of a atv is to turn the air/fuel mixture screw on the bottom of the carb out a half of a turn. this is on a honda, but I believe its the same for the big bears. by turning the screw out a half turn this richins the idle to 1/8 or so throttle, so you dont have to use the choke.

There are alot of nice replies here :wink: ...

It is definately choke related.

It won't be the breather tube because if it was clogged, it would always run badly and not just on startup. If it was a problem with the carb, it would also be a problem not just on startup(in one particular RPM range, which would self-diagnose which jet was the problem).

If you have any more trouble diagnosing it, stop by @ highlifter.com and ask us over there. If you do so, shoot me a pm(same name there) and I'll help out any way I can...:D
