clarification 900 1994

Starts out in 2nd when warm? What happens when cold?

I would definitely want to check out the kickdown function. When you open the throttle spindle does the kickdown cable then retract smoothly as you close it and without at all going slack? With the spindle held wide open, if you pull the cable and feed it back manually, does it feel like there's resistance? There's a little brass ferrule on the cable. When the throttle is closed, what's the approx gap on the cable between it and the rubber collar on the end of the adjuster? See the FAQ for proper adjustment.

And possibly more important, has the trans fluid been changed in living memory?
