i bought a hawk 125 off of powersportsmax recently. it came in super fast. i assembled it, took a couple hours. then i go to start it, it only starts with the choke fully on and it only runs with the choke fully on. it bogs super bad and max speed i got it up to is 18 miles an hour, also it does not stay running at idle. so i figured it was the carb, it definitely is. i tried replacing the carb with a nibbi 22mm and it kept the bike running at idle but the idle is stuck at 7000 rpm no matter what i do or change. does anyone know what im supposed to do. (im new to carbureted bikes) ive already contacted powersportsmax and theyre sending me a new carburetor. ANY advice whatsoever would be helpful

edit: its the street legal variant with the lights if that matters.

edit 2: it actually only runs with the choke off
