Default Horrible Cold Start. DRZ400E

Luckly I have a kick start or I would still be in the woods. The electric start will not do it cold anymore, it takes many many kicks to get it started also. I try all sorts of combinations of gas choke and throttle and it just spits and then starts out of nowhere. When warm it starts right up with the starter. What is up here? It didn't do this before, it just seemed to happen. It seems like fuel, I can twist the throttle and not flood it, I change plugs and it stays the same. Any help would be great, lots of time with the snow now.

Check your aircleaner is not dirty and cutting down on the air supply to the carb.
You already changed to a NEW plug so that is one step in the right direction.

Let me know.
