My eiger takes forever to warm up. Every time I start it I have to use the choke and leave it on for at least 5 minutes for it to warm up regardless of the outside temp. It runs perfect once warm but was wandering if everyones EIGER is like this..Is their anything that can be done about this????

You need to pop the cover off of the mixture screw and turn the screw out a little to richen your pilot circuit.

Take a 1/8" drill bit and lightly drill through it not letting the bit penetrate too far past the cover. Then just take a small screwdriver and pry it out.

I dont know of any places down there. I usually just ride around the house or at the camp. I dont do much riding at all anymore.
