No intention of fitting electric start, as theres no need, she starts really easily. you don't so much kick start it, as just push the kickstart down. once the massive flywheel is turning, that's her away. She chugs up to tick over like a cement mixer. comfortable cruising speed appears to be 'one metric hoseason', which is 55mph, same as my Enfield. Manual says to start her in second gear, I get the impression, that first is for climbing cliffs! Gear changes are interesting, with a toe and heel gear change. Great satisfaction when you make smooth changes, which only happen when you have the revs right, and guide her into the gear.
