I am going to offer an opinion that is possible and fairly easy to do with basic hand tools. I wouldn't spend more than 100 dollars on the bike that you are looking at.

I have a pvc and carbon manifold holding a single carb on my Yamaha 700. It works fine. and gets about 50mpg. It is about 3 years old. I am sure you could do it that way if you wanted to.

I used a single stock carb the first year but switched to a dirt bike carb later when I had issues with my remaining carb.
