Once the choke is off it will idle rough for a minute or 2 then will normally die out it does respond decent to the throttle however its not a rocket but it dosnt trip over itself

Welcome! And welcome to the world of old bikes!

Congrats on getting it started. Get yourself a repair manual for the bike and give it a good tune up, valve clearance, etc. Make sure the service is up to date and then see how it goes.

Any oil leaks or smoke from the exhaust? 0
