Is it avaiable onthe market as a kit for bike engined cars?

Not generally... some have tried and had limited success, some no success at all. Try designing your own, where's your spirit man?!

I thought somebody on this forum (can't recall who though) had built such a system for himself and a few others which seemed to work ok.
A search might help

Ox put one on his R1 Indy which he's sold now and is building a busa Indy so he's worth sending a U2U to him.

HTH,

Steve Keenan (Martin's brother) built one for his Indy, about £30 quid he said from a commercial solenoid, perhaps you could ask Martin?

Cheers

The DIY has pased through my mind. I was thinkg of something like the radio control cars use.
