Pull Starter on '23 Edge

[Wapow]

Just picked up a hold over '23 Edge. It came with e-start instead of shot, due to supply chain issues. I don't trust the e-start to always work, so want to install a pull start kit. Anybody installed a pull starter and have the part numbers? There does not seem to be a kit available like there was for the G4.

I was looking at one the dealer said there was a pull start kit

pretty silly on doo's part to send you into the mountains with no pull cord. should always have 2 ways to start a sled. A buddy told me most new dirt bikes dont have a kick start either. friggin crazy

Can always clutch start it in a pinch

The gen 5 with estart comes with an emergency starter rope in the toolkit. Starts easy with it

Yea my couple year old Husky has no kickstarter. Its absurd, but I installed a capacitor thing so I can at least bump start it if I have to.

I didn't realize doo even made a sled with no pull start.

I had a pull start fail on my G4 and it was not easy to start it with the OEM rope. I wound up using some webbing I keep in my kit for towing. Maybe I was just doing it wrong. Putting the clutch guard back on when it's running is a no go for me, so the pull starter is gonna be my backup.

Ya, unfortunately they have been doing that since 2009.... Dumb I agree.

Circling back to say it's the same pull starter kit as the G4.
