You can line up 10 similar old Triumphs and thier woners and you'll get at least a half-dozen different starting procedures.
I've built nearly identical bikes where one needed a totally different procedure than the other.
Illogical? You betcha. Still, it's a fact.
Both of my '79 Specials need the "choke" lever to start unless hot, and both need it turned off almost immediately.

Paul, you already know that just as the owners' temperments differ, so too the bikes. These bikes have *real* character.
