Templars are carbureted, NOT EFI.
Check the jetting info in the Templar Resource guide.

Registration is iffy on many of these bikes. There are notable exceptions like the Hawk which is supposed to be 100% DOT approved and street legal. But some States, or at least certain license...

That looks nearly identical to my 2020 Bashan Storm. It is a good bike. It has the 230cc 14hp pushrod clone. Mine had the counterbalanced version, but otherwise this bike looks the same.

I think that the motivation for China bashing goes beyond outing the variable build quality and generic parts bin approach that makes these bikes affordable. No reason to go into the politics of it...

The Hawk is a dual sport. It has more relaxed steering head angle than something like the Templars. Also, the seat on Hawks keep you planted in one spot, whereas "enduro" bikes have a flat seat that...

If you verify the odometer, maybe you can accumulate some mileage estimates (mpg). Maybe 55 or 65 mpg? The torque converter might soak...

Looks like a lot of fun for a "base price" of $4999. I wonder how much it will truly cost? No lights. Not even a DRL or brake light. Maybe you want a strictly off road dirt bike. 5 speed, not 6. It...
