Idle setting
Stating the obvious of course, but shouldn't you also set everything so that the bike starts easily. This problem is usually caused by the idle mixture setting. In your case too rich, I would guess ...
Idle mix to standard setting. Idle speed to at least 1200 rpm.
Warm up engine. Turn out the idle mix screw till engine speed increases. Go on till speed starts to decrease again. Half a turn back.
Set idel speed 2 - 300 rpm about factory standard - this makes for easier starting; you do not have to touch the throttle during the starting process. You get used to the higher idle speed.
Good luck!
