Dumb Question.. how is rhe ste

Dumb Question.. how is rhe steering supposed to work? On this install it doesn't. It looks as though the steering shaft should rotate in the shaft tube. The cable doesn't seem to want to separate from the shaft and the steering wheel is frozen so I am not able to observe how the system is supposed to work. Also the drag link is missing.
A second question? Is it possible / practical to upgrade to electric start?
 
I found the answer to the firs

I found the answer to the first Question. The steering rod goes forth and back. I broke the system loose with the aid of a 3# hammer. Not the normal tool for making something work but?? I don't even see a starter motor listed for that engine. The AM possibilities are a bit pricey. Does anyone know how to access the Yamaha Equivalent?
