Is it possible to make a pull start into a kick start?

Can you install a lever, kickstarter?

Tecumseh had one decades ago on their minibike engines.

Kick start would be kinda fun in a gokart... ?

What engine is it?
Im sure if you have the equipment and put enough thought into it, it will work out.
I know you can turn electric start (starter motor) quads into a kick start, Yamaha has a kit for the YFZ 450.
