Engine Trouble Because Choke Left On Too Long
 
Hello, yesterday as i was riding home on my s40, i forgot i left my choke on and the engine started sputtering then shut off. I let it sit a minute and went another half mile down the road and it happened again. Now it wont even run when i start it up, any ideas on what the issue is and if its easily resolved?
Thanks!

Leaving the choke on too long can fowl the spark plugs. It will leave a carbon build up. I would check the plug.

No problem. Let me know what you find.

You were right, sucks getting to it having to take off he seat, drain the tank, remove it, disconnect hoses, ect... But better then what I was going to do, for some reason I thought I gummed up the carbs but I'm glad it was just a simple spark plug swap, I got one of the green and white E series batteries and was told it will give a smoother ride with more horsepower and better gas mileage? Any input?

Did it start up alright after changing the plug?
Definitely, it can be a pain to access some of the areas.
I am unfamiliar with the battery and said benefits.

Started up great and I didn't mean to say battery, meant to say spark plug

Glad to hear it.
I have seen those plugs online but no experience.
