Absolutely. I have ACR's wired directly to my starter. Easy enough. SE 110 heads come with ACR's.

QC, can you relate?

As a young man I used my compression releases frequently under various riding conditions in multiple environments.
Now that I'm older I find that the compression releases are not needed as often.
