Default Really dumb question here.....but humor me

I can't believe I am asking such a dumb question here. After the my custom build and all the mods I've ever done this may just shoot my credibility right to the dirt, but here goes....I am thinking of eliminating the whole starter option on my Ironhead basket. The motor came with electric and kick capability. Can I just eliminate the whole starter housing, solinoid, etc. and use the kicker only from that point on, or is this not an option for me? As you can tell from my previous posts regarding starter problems, I am seriously debating having a straight kick starter only....even if these Irons were nicknamed the "Milwaulkee Crippler"! Later Cats........

Yep, you can ditch the starter. Just block off the leftover holes.
