choke combat wombat

Just wondering if anyone might know how to remedy the carb on my combat wombat. After sitting up a long time, I finally got the bike started, but only with the choke on. She goes dead without choke on. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Marty

Hot dang . . . this likely to be slam dunk simple.
Your pilot jet is clogged. Take the carb apart and do a thorough cleaning ESPECIALLY the pilot jet and pilot circuit passages.
(See past issues of the Resonator Revisited for guidance. Um, you are a member of the Hodaka Club right?

DOH!
PS: Do you have an in-line fuel filter? If not, install one. Yes.
