It would take machining a new bottom end. Theres been plenty of KTM 50 and 65 builds that use kick starts though!

I kind of have always wanted to do that, put some kind of a dirt bike engine on my bike frame. The only thing is that I don't know if it requires some kind of custom engine mounting to make it work. But it would be nice to not have to pedal to start moving and start the bike going.

You can get these engines fkr abkut 500 off of ali express. As for mounting, It's three mounting points. It wouldnt be that bad to have a fab shop weld some gusset that allow mounting the engine.
