How Motogp Engines Produce Around 300 hp ?

Post

It is harder to find data about motogp engine compared to F1 but at the end both almost impossible. In this form there are people makes comment based on their engineering experience, and I thought maybe they make same for motogp too.
How MotoGP engine get so much power with so small displacement and what technologies are used with the engines? For example, are they using passive prechamber or different things for faster combustion?
