1972 cb500 4 doesnt run with choke off

Hi, just bought a restored 72 cb500 4 with 25 miles on the new engine. The bike runs well with the choke off, but sputters and dies when I close the choke. Not sure if it is related at all but the electric starter seems to be acting up as well. Any help would be appreciated

thanks
