What am I doing wrong while trying to start my pocket bike?

I have a Giovanni 49cc pocket bike, and am really frustrated trying to start it. My friend and his dad know about cars and motorcycles so they helped to. We mixed the oil and gas, and put it in the tank. We kept the choke on, and turned a little white thing beside the choke vertical (on position)

We tried starting it up by pulling the thing, but took a few tries to get it working. It first started, but turned off after 10 sec.

When we finally got it working, my friends dad held the throttle while my friend got on quickly and rode. The only way we kept it going was by keeping the throttle held from start to finish, but whenever we let it go, the engine would completely shut off.

What are we doing wrong, and what can we do to fix it?

This pocket bike is brand new
