Starting bike - blipping the accelerator to get her going

[leviathanrising]

When you start your bike from cold the procedure should be choke > ignition in neutral > starts without a hitch > wait to heat up > choke off, simples.

Mine seems to cough but I need to pull the accelerator back a bit to fire it up. Any suggestions to remedy this? It was happening four years previous before its four year storage sleep.
