The other thing is, whacking the choke on full isn't always the best way- you can end up flooding it if you're not careful. I used to get this quite a lot, now I start with a smaller amount of choke and work up if neccesary. I believe short bursts of the starter work better than constant too, seems to work for me.

But then, it seems like what works for one bike may not work for the next...
