Has anyone ever put a kickstarter on a 84 or 85 spree?

[mc1984]

I recently purchased a 1985 Spree. I am wishing it was a year or two newer that way it would have a kickstarter. I was just wondering if anybody has ever put a kickstarter on a model that did not have it? What parts are all needed and how hard is it to do?

Thanks in advance!

I have done it, and you need to get the complete side cover off an 86 or 87 with the kick start and you also need the outer half of pully that's on crank shaft. This has teeth for kicker to catch, then just reassemble these parts in place of originals. Pretty simple, only problem is finding the parts, they are around as I did find without to much trouble. Good luck, gadgetman
