Electric start conversion kit

I’m looking to convert my 2008 Honda 25 hp from a rope start to electric start and not having any luck finding a kit to do this.

I'm betting if you do find one, you aren't going to like the price. In fact, I'm pretty sure you won't! My plan would be to buy a motor w/e-start and sell the one you have.

I'm sure you've found 4 stroke outboards can be a real bugger to pull through. Even the little ones are something I'd rather not deal with. Electric start and 4 stokes are made for each other!

I agree with above on the price. There's likely not much to it though, unless you have to change the flywheel. Do you know if yours already has the gear on it? You might just have to track down a starter motor, which would probably be a lot easier and cheaper. Picking up any small solenoid and then figuring how to wire in a neutral-start safety and a pushbutton shouldn't be that hard nor expensive.
