New owner if a first bike, a CB77. Starts great, Runs great....when the choke is left mostly closed.
As soon as I go to open it, it revs through the roof.
So the more I open the choke, the harder is runs and If I close the choke entirely it dies at idle no matter how warm it is. Also the choke seems like it is either on or off with no I between. Still working the opposite of what I'd expect. WTF??
Also, the exhaust wrap that was white when I bought the bike, is now turning quite black.
My dad is coming to help me try and figure this out, but he hasn't worked on a motorcycle in about 40 years.
