IN the cold yes it is easy to start.but when it is hot after a good run or during a race it can be a pain. so get the hot start to.
the in stall is easy it should take 30 to Min the hole right side case comes off then you put the gears and kick shaft in .you don't have to take off the electric starter at all.

i just remounted the plastic back more if you look in the second pic .you can remove the electric start if you want to. but then you still need your battery or a capasitor off of trail tek. for the fan and spark to work right.
