Got this from another forum... I think this thing is pretty special, sounds pretty good as well!

I haven't tried searching but the pics I saw were the bare engine and I don't recall whether I ever saw it running.
I'll have a bit of a search later on and see if I can find it again.

LOL I meant you were just the man to build a V8 Fireblade!

Here is a V8 Hayabusa engine I found on t'internet to give you some inspiration....

Not really, I don't even like litre engines :-)
750cc is the best motorcycle engine for size, weight, power and fun factor I reckon. 600's are revvier but don't make enough power.
Once you get above 750cc the engines are making too much midrange for my liking.

Now, grafting two CBR400R engines into an 800cc V8 - that sounds like fun :-)
