Anyone Know About Mini-Moto Engines?

One of the kids next door to me has a mini-moto which he is trying to start up for the first time in several months.

It doesn't seem to be catching at all, so I took the spark plug out and cleaned it, but there didn't seem to be a spark when I turned it over with the spark plug out.

Do these things have a little dynamo that provides the necessary current? Or is there a little battery somewhere (ht lead seems to go into the crank-case cover, and I didn't want to start dismantling it, particularly as I'm trying to get some poxy ill-fitting track bodywork drilled ready for a track-day)

If anyone has any ideas what the problem might be, suggestions would be much appreciated.
