electric starter kit for DR650

Just bought a DR650 1995 kit start only version, i now its older and heavier than the newer models but it came with long range tank and luggage rack + side racks and top box so not to bothered about age, the bike has a bad vibration from the engine which i believe may be balancer shaft related although i planning to strip and rebuild the engine.
Does anyone Know if an electric start kit is avaliable? Also any other help or advice would be great.

Cheers Jim

electric starter kit for DR650

I know this post is old, but I intend to do the same on my DR 650. Did you manage to find an answer to this?

Hi run.lar

The only solution was to fit a later engine with electric start. I sold the bike as it was to help fund a trip to Morocco on my V-strom 1000

Cheers Jim
