Can anyone tell me if this bike is difficult to start in the morning or whenever the engine is cold? Thanks!

I use the choke every morning and have had no problems with starting the engine.

It is difficult to answer your question without a little more detail. How cold? How old is the battery? How well has the bike been maintained (plugs, filters, proper grade of oil, etc.)? Is the choke applied? How long did the bike sit before starting? I ride year round, and keep the bike well maintained. With choke applied, I have no problem starting in below-freezing temperatures. Of course, you still should allow the engine to warm up after starting.
