No choke, dual carbs, high riser intake (no heat passages to warm it up). Pump three, maybe four times before hitting the starter. Fires right up, keep blipping the throttle or it will die for sure, at least 45 seconds, a minute or more before it will even THINK about idling on it's own. Pops back through the carbs if your not careful and try to get underway before it's ready. Hawaii, if it ever drops into the 60's I don't go outside (freezin' out there!) so I wouldn't know how it does in "cold weather". Takes a few miles for it to begin to stabilize and idle without worry about dieing. I guess that's "cold blooded".
