well done on getting back safely.
the starting in neutral is pretty much standard, some even have a double safety in that you have to engage the clutch.
you should be able to just slowly ease the choke back to the off position a little bit at a time as you go along. thats what i do but there is probably a correct way.
let the engine warm up a bit before setting off. others say it'll warm up as you ride along but i notice a little difference when i do it the other way.
cant remember where i heard this but somebody said that what they did was start the motorcycle and the warming up time was the time it took them to put their gloves and helmet on and do a little walk around the bike. hope that helps
