on a real 2 stroke sport bike yes, but in this case, its more a sign that it has a rather basic 4 stroke engine (as it turns out an air cooled engine from a dirt bike)

at the very least, you would want a liquid cooled engine, as it means the combustion chamber can run hotter and so produce more power

It's not American, it's chinese, can't remember the manufacturer, it's probably branded under loads of names though anyway, they came out a few years ago, I remember the fireblade style rear fairing and stupid mirrors. I wouldn't trust one on the road at all, I'd expect some catastrophic failure like a snapped swingarm or yokes if you hit a big pothole or too many speedbumps.

The kick start is only to be used after you have had it for 6 months, and the electric start has broken.
