Where should the choke lever go???

[Ginger Phil]

I asked this on another forum but nobody knew.
Should the choke lever be pulled as far forward as it'll go so that it's under the red horn button like in the pic below:



Or should it go right back, out of sight as in this pic:

I take it nobody knows? I remember asking Hypojam on another forum and his Taishan doesn't have a choke lever so is mine the only one??? Do Baotian scooters have a choke lever? Personally I can't see the point in it as the choke is automatic but I think the purpose of the lever is to give it a little boost when needed.

Hello Karen.

To be honest I'm not even sure if there's a cable attached to mine. You've got me thinking now.
I'm out on the ped tonight so I'll have a butchers and report back. ;D

Well I had a good look when I went out tonight and guess what? I don't think there's a cable there either!!

What a con!! All this time I've been wondering where the lever should go and all along it hasn't been connected to anything.

I'm glad you pointed me in the right direction Karen.

Yeah it seems nobody's choke lever is actually connected to anything. It's quite funny when you think about it.
