i got it new in 2007. no problems with the choke but il check the air filter and i doubt its the mix as iv ran all my bikes the same "oil to fuel ratio" and had no problems

the one think im dreading now is i was txting a good mate of mine 1/2 an hour ago and he said the fuel tank might have a a small hole in a that sucks air in or summit :thumbdown:

im gona strip it tomorrow and go over everything :angry: :( carnt aford to waist it

disconnect the carb clean the float and float bowl also check that the slide is ok and also cable.
check the air filter pipe and filter for any rips or tears
should solve your problem if not send me a pm i had a similar problem with mine which is also an 07 model

theres a screw on the side of the carb, unscrew it it lets more air in, tighten it, it lets less air in, try that it may help!

well iv now fitted a new KN air filter( i nicked it of a mate this morning) changed the oil played with that screw on the carb for 5 minutes
And guess what ....Its fixed!! well sortof only had 1/4 an hour onit but it was fine :D . Gona change it for a new KTM tho next month they made me a good deal last week and iv thought it through better trading in a bike thats worth something than tradeing in a bike thats worth nought

A good way of setting your carbs is too tighten both screws then give them 1 and 1/2 turns out then tweek from there. Also if it comes back then make sure youf fuel is clean and clean the carb like ferret man 09 said
