sweet setup, very light motor

was previously thinking of motors with electric starts, but one of the projects I have been offered for sale is kick start only

how do you guys get around that, surely removing the panel everytime you start it is a right ol chore

has anyone gone to the extent of utilising an original looking kickstart arm from the scooter, then using pivots and linkages make this work the kickstart on the engine?
heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it does fail, hit them with it!!!
