Measure twice cut once
no e-start kit, you can make a red-neck e start though. removing gov allows for more rpms, which can make you go faster.

affordablegokarts.com and ebay have electric starter kits for these engines. A governor would be removed in order to gain more RPM. If you remove the governor, a new set of 18lb. valve springs and an arc billet connecting rod are highly suggested. Please read up on 4-stroke engine therory and engine basics before atempting to do any work like this.

thanks devino, definitely a good idea. you can make an e-start many ways, the main components are, starter motor (correct power/rpm), a type of clutch (cent clutch, bike free-wheel) and a few more things. this is a good vid for you to look at,
