This reminds me of two friends I have from long ago ..... one had a 150 Honda dream with a single carb...... the other a 160 dual carb....... we all wanted the 160 since it had those few extra HP....... I under stand where your coming from seems like it would easier keeping the single carb sync'd and taken care of but don't think you'd ever get it any where as good as the factory dual set up.

Unless it's a performance upgrade, I see no reason to do it.
