You have heard from the group, rust is not your friend. I am going to pass this on to the 2cylinder group as there are a number of Honda 600 owners in your area. But, before you make any rash discussions, send me the Chassis, engine and date of manufacture numbers, then look at the number on the engine (it's between the heat exchanger and the cylinders on the top part of the case. One of the numbers may be hidden by the clutch cable so a flash light is a good tool. This number should match the engine number on the red plate just above the left front head light, and the chassis number on the black plate just below the latch on the drivers door post.
Let me know what you find out and I will pass along any information I may have.
