Welcome to the site bro............

As for the choke it is carb it is a black plunger type device. You pull it out when you cold start the qaud. Then once it warms up you push it back in......

Heres a pic.

Its the black handled plunger on the left of the pic.........

Mine took a while to start too the first time, scared the hell out of me. I forgot about the choke, old CR125R had the choke broken off. Haha. Try the choke first and if you have a question just ask. These guys are great. These guys make it so that you don't have to take it to a shop to do simple stuff too.
