3 Cyl Metro Pull Start?

I had another crazy idea for my metro. To eliminate the battery and the maintenance that comes along with that, I was thinking I could install a lawnmower style pull start. I'd probably just use a small capacitor in place of the battery for the sake of current flow while running. This would eliminate the issue of of the alternator constantly working to charge a 12v battery to 14v. This also would mean no worrying about a dead frozen battery in winter.

Thoughts?
