Is this what you’re asking about??? Seems like another gimmick like the swirl attachment they sold for car engines..increase hp and torque plus added gas mileage…ya sure.
Maybe check out the old school 2 strokes racers,they used plenty of tricks to ring out a few extra rpm and/or change the power band. IIRC some would drill holes into the cylinder walls,not sure exactly why. Check out the old Kawi bighorn race bikes,350cc singles that could be built into track monsters.

This is more to my liking. Always wanted a big bore single but no one made anything I liked until I discovered the new CCM offerings.
60hp and 300 lbs was something I thought would make a nice ride,closest I came to that was a 400cc 4 by Honda but it just didn’t make enough hp. Now you can just break out your wallet and buy one off the shop floor.
Also I’m afraid my riding days are long gone and it’s too much coin to just sit around wait for a 10 minute ride once a week type thing.

I had a 1957 Dayton 250 scooter.
Had a single 250 villiers engine.
It was build like a tank
And was as crap as a Harley

I see that someone has reserected the old maico engines,they make both air and water cooled versions but the price is close to a good used car,iirc something like 5 or 6000 euros and that doesn’t include all the bits like a frame and wheels.
But a 701 2 stroker would make a beast of a street bike.
