tick

[Ruby Soho]

when i start my 400ex in the cold (i usually have the garage heated, somedays i dont though) itll start up fine and run fine, but when i blip the throttle theres a little tick. its not a head gasket i already checked over everything, once its warmed up it stops, and when it is still cold it doesnt do it EVERY time. im thinkin its soemthing to do with the choke cause it usually does it with the choke on. it doesnt effect the performance at all, nothing just a little tick once in awile, any ideas as to what it is?
