Depends on what motor it is. Usually, you will need a set of controls, and a steering cable setup, plus a solid mounting place (console) for the steering wheel. What motor is it? Some motors are easier than others. Many Johnnyrudes have electric choke solenoids, so you can give the motor full choke from the console. I know my buddies 2003 Yamaha Vmax 150 doesn't. He has to pull the choke lever on the motor, and then jump back on the stern deck to push it back in after cranking it. Course, my 1970s Johnsons have electric choke. Hmm. Just goes to show why I am an OMC guy....
