Wheelbender,
You said it! And, if you ride a 4-stroke, they work wonders too. Witness my old Xingyue 150...
I modded this chamber-exhaust originally made for a 2-stroke 50cc to fit my 4-stroke 150 and it made a notable difference in overall performance. It's a trick I learned more than 50 years ago from 2-stroke racing karts. We tried the chamber-exhausts on our 4-stroke pit-bikes and were AMAZED at how GREAT they worked!
While the chambers won't supercharge the 4-stroke by pulling the exhaust through, sucking in extra fuel/air mix then ramming it back into the cylinder as they will with a 2-stroke, they WILL scavenge a 4-stroke BETTER than "straight-pipes", make better power, and promote easier tuning... And they look SO cool doing it!
I'd like to see the CVT setup on this one, and ESPECIALLY on the 8-cylinder scoot! There's a LOT of work lashing up all those multi-cylinder units and they must have the "mother" of all clutches and variators... LOL!
Big, thumpin' 4-strokes are cool, but so are screamin' buzz-bomb 2-strokes!
Ride safe!
