can I get a lift

Today I have to figure out how to lift the engine on the new 42cc chainsaw bike. I think it is going to have to be a cable lift system. The angle on the engine is downward so I have to pick it up from a dropped position. It will be either a cable or a lift lever like the one of the 33cc bike but I don't have any more of that tubing. Most likely it will be cable with my kind of lever not a brake lever.

Then I have to set the controls. Also add a front brake. These bikes aren't like the front brake ones. I have less faith in the ability of the engine drag to stop them. But they all are low enough now to do an emergency foot drag without a problem.
