I recently picked a 89 alp 9000 miles,good shape,but when it first starts, it idles fine but when you hit the gas it runs rough until it warms up completely,it probably could use a tune up where it has sat for a bit,does this sound like a tune up or cdi???thanks

Tune it up, include valve check, carb synch.  Sounds nothing like a cdi.

"Sat for a bit"

Sounds like it could use a carb cleaning.........and during that cleaning a very close look and cleaning of the pilot jet also known as the slow jet.
