Thanks Zed!
"Atleastitsnotaford," I think your 9 would benefit from a carb and cylinder checkup. I hope too that you are using your choke/enrichener during cold starts.
To test, try starting it cold. When it's at its worst, turn it off and pull the spark plugs. I would imagine the tips should be black and wet, assuming the enrichener is dumping non-atomized gas in. Plug color can tell you a lot about how your bike is running.
There are lots of possible solutions, from valve float to leaking carburetor intake boots. Click on my e1_ZX-9r handle on the left and see my other posts. I've posted a bunch of info done to mine that might help you get your 9 straightened out.
BTW, to test if your intake boots are leaking, begin with the engine cold and a water hose near by. Start the bike and run small amounts of water over the tops of the intake boots & carbs, if the engine stalls or stumbles, you have an air leak between your carbs and cylinder intakes. Maybe simply a loose fastener.
