Default LT230E clutch conversion to manual

The motor is a total basket case I bought with a parts bike. It lost the main bearings and one logded in, and ruined the 3rd gear in the transmission. I'm pretty sure I have all of the parts for it. If you did this, it'd be likely that you could swap over to a kickstart as a backup, and delete the pull start. This would narrow the motor up a bit. The manual clutch also takes up less space. This means you have the option of running the Quadsport fold up pegs.

If you look in my photos you will see that the motors are very different. I am doubtful, although I didn't take any measurements. A bolt in swap doesn't look likely. It is still possible to make the centrifugal clutch disengauge like a manual.

Default Forward gears on a Lt 230E

I can not shift out of neutral, but I can shift into reverse. Is this do to a dead battery, therefore not engaging the automatic clutch? I have a Lt 230E
