I don't see where it says it won't work with electric start.

"NEW" Cycle X  charging system
* Single phase system allows battery or battery less operation. ( call for details )
* Rotor weighs only 1.640 lb's for high rev potential
* 14 amp system
* Kick only ( who needs a button anyway )
* Complete system weighs over 8 lbs less than a OEM system.

Note:
Honda's 3 phase field excited charging will create a magnetic pull when the regulator tells it.
This magnetic pull can reduce horsepower ( sometimes 2 horsepower )
Reduced rotating weight and less magnetic pull makes the Cycle X charging system the best choice.
Kit includes:
                   * 1.640 lb rotor
                   * 14 amp stator ( single phase ) and adaptor plate
                   * Crankshaft oil block-off sleeve ( Kick only )
                   * Crankshaft spacer.
                   * Starter hole block-off plug with fitting ( wires come out of this location)
                   * Solid state regulator-rectifier ( Made in USA )
                   * Gasket
                   * Instructions

If you have a battery then what is stopping you from using a starter?   A lot of cafe people want to shave off as much weight as possible, so in order to ditch the battery and starter they use this (have to as the stock rotor won't allow batteryless operation)  

In the text it does say that. 4 asterisks down: "kick only (who needs a button anyway)"

The reason is not because of lack of cranking power though that may be true. The absolute reason is that its a different rotor and the starter clutch bolts to the rotor. So the starter clutch is discarded, along with its gears. You'll note one of the advantages is huge weight loss...starter motor and hardware.

here it is, engine is about 75% complete and the frame is almost ready,
  should be done just in time for a nice long portland winter

Well worth the wait. Its looking very nice. Can't wait to see the final. You have me thinking about that head light setup for me.. Looks better then I thought it would.

Great job!

I didn't see any info on the dual setup. Where can we get info on it?

Yesterday I saw a stock Yahama sport bike with a dual setup. Harley has 1 model with a dual setup too. Perhaps there is info available on those bikes that could be helpful. I'm sure, however, that they must have stronger charging systems than we do.

  this is where i got my set up from http://www.flyncycle.com/Dominator_Headlights_s/1456.htm
     modern bikes have far superior electrical systems, they wouldnt have any problems running something like this

yeah, that looks NICE!!
