Sounds like it’s running too lean when the choke is off. Adjust the mixture screw while it’s idling(with the choke on) till it dies. Then with the choke off see if it starts up and will idle. Keep adjusting it till it idles without the choke on.

Did you remove the jets when you pulled the carb apart? If not they may still be fouled up. What about the mixture? Was it adjusted correctly when replaced? (Screw all the way in, then back off 1&1/2 to 2 turns). What make and model? I may have a PDF for it! Don’t ride it with the choke on, your only going to destroy your engine!!

You probably have an air leak. Spray WD40 around the carb & intake while the bike is running, if the RPMs go up or down, you have a leak. And the next time stay away from human rights violating countries like Communist China.
