Electric engine start

[Coval_PL]

Has anyone made some electric start for 80cc engine? Has anyone some ideas? I would like to try to make something allows start engine by elecric motor. I've got small 6V acid accu onboard. I'm not shure has it enough power to start engine.

I have been thinking of this as well. And even having an alternator maybe. The issue for me is such close tolerance between the engine and the pedals. I can't really add extra width.

Could You send some fhoto of this motor and some other details.

I'll get pics when I come home today. I'm not sure what I'd use for a starter, but for an alternator I'd use an old stepper motor out of something.
