Use wire ties even to hold it in place

The hell with zip ties, I'll let it hang like a Gremlin Bell, it could only bring me luck!

A couple good photos of their CV carbed setup motor mount would be all I need.

I would send you mine, however, it is scattered all over the shop.
But it is simple-
It is an aluminum plate attached to face of carb by 3 screws.
The plate is then bolted to the head air holes. One in each head.
Mine is none breather, so no precaution with hollow bolts necessary.

When I converted to carb, I went with S&S carb, No choke cable.

While we're waiting for that, how about posting a photo of what you currently have on the horn side? Perhaps we can come up with an imaginative solution.

Alternatively look up the following parts for a 1990 or there-abouts carb bike:

47169-90 BRACKET, engine mounting

which provides the mount for the top engine steady/link. It has a small lug to take the choke ****, just copy it and bolt on.
