Starting over just means removing the original carb, installing a new aftermarket carb adapting choke and throttle cable as needed, and testing. Then rejetting based on the testing.

The original carb is already installed and testing is the first thing you do when you start it up!! Then you have to rejet for your altitude. No difference, except you don't have to reinstall a new carb!!

Removing the break-off bolts and drilling out the airscrew is just as much work as installing a new carb. The Templar just comes with a smoothbore carb OEM. Hawk does NOT.

The break-off bolts and airscrew cover are on every bike these days and easy to deal with. And no need to spend a penny if your original carb is good.
