I think it will be very difficult to attach the cable end to the choke rail without removing the tank - plus the cable is routed along the frame under the tank middle.
With almost 6 gallons of fuel, that full tank weighs around 35-40#. Not too bad a job to remove - easier than trying to work under it I think...

Mine broke 4 blocks from the cycle shop. Interesting stopping for the red light that caught me. Had to change it in their parking lot.
