The clean tank is a good deal. They are a pain to de-rust. If you do
get the carb, you may also need a battery to get it going. At some
point Honda started using a 4-pin battery plug, where two of the pins
are inline with the ignition circuit. The battery had a jumper wire
across this connection, so the bike would not run without a bettery
installed. Even a dead battery that has the correct plug will work.
Or just jumper across the two extra terminals.
