I assume your question was "do you ride an Xr100 with the choke on?". In response to that the answer is no. If you are having to run it with the choke on, that is an indication of clogged jets in the carburetor which will require removing the carburetor, disassembling, cleaning, reassembling and reinstalling on the bike.
The choke lever should be down for the choke to be off. In the raised position is choke on.

My opinion and my knowledge the xr100 is slower than the xr80 because I had both of those bikes and the xr80 always beat the xr100
They're not.
No only 2-stoke bikes have powerbands, the xr100 is a four stroke.
The Honda xr100 has 5 forward gears 1-down, 4 up.
According to the spark plug manufacturer NGK, the recommended gap for a 2001 Honda XR100 is .028"
1989 Honda xr100
.028 in.
1 quart of 10w-40
The xr100 uses straight unleaded gasoline. (car gas)
I am pretty sure the xr100 Honda does not have an oil filter at all
