    Welcome,

    Do a search on the internet for a company called "GOKI" they made electric start kits for 3wheelers.... youre probably lookin at $200 roughly.

    Post a picture of the tri-moto when you have some time.

    Goki doesn't have a website.Their # is 1-818-998-0852.They have an ad in the april issue of Dirt Wheels.It doesn't show any yamaha models except for the badger and champ.I would give them a call and find out if they do make one for the 200 tri-moto.

    I have not found a kit to add on so the best way would to take one from a Yamaha 200E. The electrical will all fit but the problem is where the starter motor hooks in. You would need to cut a hole in the case infront of the pull starter (I think 1983's already have the hole with a plug) for the motor to bolt into and use the 200E flywheel and pull starter. Or use the 200E case but put in your trans. to change it over to chain drive but then you would need to make an oil seal for the output shaft. I don't think anyone else has tried to do it so keep good notes if you do. It probably would just be easier to sell it and get a 200E (which has bigger tires too). Good luck.
