73 CB350G from Virginia

Hello, I am "ol55" from Northern Virginia. The bike I am trying to get to go around the block without stalling is a '73 350G that a friend of mine had in his garage since 1980. He purchased it in Georgia in 1978 from a parts counter person at the local Honda dealer. It has 8,000+ miles. He paid someone to get it running so I drove it about 3/4 of a mile before taking the carbs off ( see post in Technical issues). The bike has these modifications all done prior to '78; 2 into one exhaust, velocity stacks for air cleaners, and is missing the center stand, tool kit, and rear grab bar. The starter button and the ignition switch have been moved from the original location. The color is brown with a spilled gas issue on the tank. The original color I think was purple. My goal is just to get it running and ride it!

Thanks for the help so far,

Larry
