| | If this bike is fuel injected, why does it still have a choke? |

| | My guess would be - the FI is NOT electronic, rather it is mechanical which could account for the choke. I just bought an '05 - I noticed the manual choke as well; however, I have not researched the choke issue - so this is just a guess. |

| hey! i just bought an 05 with a choke also. my ghess is that its just an enrichener and not an actual choke.mine seems to start fine without ever using it so far! but it has not been that cold yet either!..lolim pretty sure the e.f.i. system is electronic cuz you can here the pump pressurize when you turn the key on! sorry thats just my opinon anyway!

| | It is NOT a choke. It is simply an idle speed control to assist in faster warm up if needed. |

| I was told by the mechanic where I bought my 2005 vulcan 1500 that it is not a choke but a fast idle arm...he said can't be a choke since it's fuel injection

| Actually its not really a choke. Its a cold start fast idle knob. Almost same priciple but helps lube your bike with high rpms on cold startup.
