Electric Start T80 ?

hi everyone

A pal of mine reckons he had an electric start T80? I cannot find any reference to this fitted on earlier bikes although there seems to be electric start versions near to the end of production in Japan - Electric model but chain final drive?

Some one must know

Cheers  

There was never an electric start T80 sold in UK but they were available in Japan with shaft drive, a few have been imported recently by dealers https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1992-JDM-Yamaha-T80-Townmate-/272802125847?_trkparms=aid%3D888007%26algo%3DDISC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D47510%26meid%3D4c5084c18d5242cbbea1834e16e4ba0d%26pid%3D100009%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26sd%3D401407808855&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=449UIxCZ8JBznxOra0BnXbj%252BtXM%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

The t80 I have just purchased(Japanese import) is electric start as well as kick, call me lazy! And it's 12 volt, bonus!
