Help. 138 lifan wont idle without choke.

Hi all,

I just assembled my Pitpro 138cc, chucked some fuel in and kicked it over and it started with the choke on no worries. I let it run for a bit while i went around and checked a few things, looking for leaks etc.
Anyway, i flicked the choke off and it died. Tried to start and would not start. Choke on and it starts. I grab the throttle and gently increase idle and flick off the choke and down it goes again. I repeated this several times and then played with the idle/mixture screw. Eventually i could turn off the choke and the bike would idle extremely low and as soon as i touched the throttle it would die. The bike is well and truly hot enough to run with out choke.
Bike will not start at all with out choke in up position.
Any newbie advise people???
Cheers AJ.
