    Hmm my cbr1000f seems to have developped a problem with cold starting
    , normally the tickover speed goes to 2500 rpm with full choke on when
    cold but it seems to have stopped fast idling now. It does pick up
    eventually. I recently replaced the race can I had with a road legal
    one, but the problem has developped since then. I was wandering if the
    choke cable needs adjusting, but does anyone else know what things I
    ought to check ?

    Cheers in advance !

    You have, apparently unwittingly, answered your own query. Was the
    carburation set up for the race can? If it was Dynojetted then it
    will probably be running waay too rich now you have replaced the can,
    which will obviously show up more when the choke is in operation.
