You are correct, but that's the way they come from the factory-- EPA/CARB lean.

At some point I will change the jetting on mine to cure the lean condition, but the OP just got his Apollo and I was just cluing him in on the fact that it's likely to be cold-blooded and that's normal.

I thought that would be helpful to him because when I first got mine, it took so long to warm up and ran so badly until it was fully warmed up that I was convinced there was something wrong with my bike.

I've since figured out that extreme lean/cold-bloodedness is normal for a new Apollo 250 and just wanted to give the OP some ideas on how to use the choke (or at least how I use it) and to make sure he knew that he didn't (necessarily) have a problem if the bike had an unusually involved warmup process.
