Hello all, I've got an idea for a project that would require a motor with the following characteristics, listed in order of most importance:
- Electric start
- Air cooled
- Single cylinder (250-500cc) for space considerations. Parallel twin may be doable
- Four stroke
- Revloc (or similar) makes an auto-clutch for it
Off the top of my head I can't think of what bikes/motors meet those requirements (especially both of the first two) but I figured someone here would have a suggestion - any thoughts?

You begin your riding career with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
DR350ES would fit the bill, but not sure if Rekluse builds a clutch for it. Revloc ceased operations last year after a patent dispute with Rekluse. Air cooled is a must?
Thanks, Jim

Not an absolute must, but it sure would make things a lot easier.

I had an old DR350 that'd fit the bill on the first 4, not sure about the clutch situation though.
Thanks, all! Hey Jim, if you run across a TTR225 motor or know where I can pick one up I'd be interested.
