Obviously not.
It adds weight but allows for higher compression and slightly more HP.

You probably would need it to be water cooled considering they have the entire engine covered up like a car, Not to mention the fact that for an automatic, and the fact that it weighs even more than the GZ it is Severely underpowered.

The Ninja 250's a liquid-cooled bike and it's probably due to the exact reason MM gave. It's a fully-faired bike which doesn't allow much heat dissipation.

This bike is Chinese crap. The minute you take it out of the showroom, you lose all ability to resell it, or "dump its problems on someone else", as the case may end up being.

Plastic floorboards???

360 lbs dry and 18 hp... and we think our GZ's are underpowered...
