Is there any way in which a kickstart could be mounted to a leaf blower engine? I have a husqvarna 350bt engine going in a mini dirt bike, and without the large plastic flywheel, it is very hard to pullstart. Is there any way I can rig one up either custom or through a kit of some kind?

Doesn't apply to your leaf blower, but check out this video attached. You can see the general idea of a kickstarter lever mounted on a large gear's center, so only a small kick spins the teeth on a large gear. This one engages a small gear mounted on the starter recoil, spins it very well, and releases like any recoil starter.
