Pull it out ... put a clothes peg behind the knob ... when you're ready, remove the peg and put it in your pocket...

Or a small set if long nose mole grips. Try a couple of squirts of throttle before restarting if it dies.
Car theft only became popular with efi

Thanks its a real pig esp when you have got to the bottom the road and the choke slides in and you cannot start it .... Doubt a thief would get far
