When warming her up, keep her happy with a bit of choke.

For me it's

Full choke for starting
Reduced to two thirds for warming up (a few sec max in winter, until she will accept throttle input.
Reduced to one third for the first few minutes riding.

(Actually I just gradually reduce at each stop I have to take to keep her at slightly elevated idle until she is at business temperature.)
