Even if it was converted, since its a Magneto Ignition, aside from possibly burning out some 6 volt lights if you put 12 volts to them, EITHER a 6 or 12 volt battery should crank the starter over to get it running (Unless it was actually converted to a 12 volt starter which I doubt, in which case it needs 12 volts to crank it properly).
