If it was my bike I'd try:

1. Make sure I had a Japanese manufactured NGK spark plug of the correct rating and gap measurement.
2. Buy a new internationally known brand battery and long charged it properly before I used it.
3. Change the lead to an NGK.
4. Try running Shell 97 octane.
5. Try changing the fuel filter if possible.
6. Try chevron techron fuel system cleaner or BG 44K
7. Try rewiring electrical system better
8. Try an aftermarket air filter and muffler to see if increased air flow actually helps.

after that I'm stumped, and would clearly be a Jialing company issue.
I don't understand? I already do ride a Chinese bike on a Chinese road! Actually mine has less problems because it is based on 40 year old Honda technology. It's when you get Chinese companies trying to do clever stuff like EFI and liquid cooling that you run into problems. Although the next bike will probably be a Suzuki GW250.

Screw copycat, greedy, defensive, incompetent, abysmal customer service Chinese companies, never again. Nationalistic Chinese bikers hate these bikes too, and that says something! The government gives them the entire market, and yet they still can't get it right, except on all but the smallest capacity and most dated technology.
