Default position is choke fully open.
Your choke should always be fully open.
Remove your air cleaner and examine the choke plate if there is any confusion.
If starting cold say 40 degrees or colder you may need to apply some choke.(I live in Florida and have never had to apply choke for cold start)
You should always attempt to start the engine with no choke and only apply/close the choke if needed.
If you do need to apply choke to start the bike after approximately 2 minutes the bike should be sufficiently warmed up for no choke(completely open).
You should in almost all circumstances only be riding the bike with no choke(completely open).
What is the temperature where you live and currently starting and riding the bike? 50 degrees or more and you should not need any choke(full open).
If you are needing to close the choke even the slightest amount to keep the bike running after it is fully warmed up then there is something else wrong and likely your carburetor needs some attention/cleaning/adjusting.
What octane gas are you running?
