Actually it seems to be quite strange that you find these kind of
different "start behaviors" with
the same bike. Perhaps this is why every AT is different and shows "real
human" behaviors
("makes her so unique!").
I'm living in Portugal and my RD07 needs also more time to stay in
neutral gear without choke than
20 seconds. After a few days without driving it takes sometimes up to 5
attempts to start the bike even
with open choke. Why Honda never tried to solve this well known problem
with construction improvements?

Ciao
