I have a friend who uses a little 2 pound mighty max battery from amazon to start his 40hp yamaha two stroke outboard motor. Its like 700cc so maybe you could try something like that. His battery was only like 19.99 and reduced weight by ~60 pounds.
Past that... Pull starting my yam 40 is a big pain in the ass. I wouldn't recommend pull starting a car engine.
