I think this (a ford v8 in a miata) is as close as you can get to a modern day shelby cobra. Ford and Mazda are already in cahoots anyway just like when shelby held hands with Ace and Ford. Very similar idea to a Buell. Also, C.J. Luke mentioned a "chevy" type of motorcycle that can be put together and modified from a catalog. A neighbor of mine, when I was in high school, was building a Big American 90 degree V-Twin with a slice off a V8. I don't know if he ever finished it but the motors are still around. They use components from a 350 V8 so basically you have enough parts to build 4 motors... http://www.supervee.com/index.html -todd OK kneeslider asked for it, LS1 V8 in a miata…

Big slow revving V-Twin in a real sportsbike setup (mostly R1 bits), or doesn't it count because it's Japanese? It's interesting that they compare that to others in its 'class', whatever that is, when I wonder, given riders with similar abilities and a real world combination of roads etc. whether the MT01, R1 or the cruiser thay got the engine from would come out on top... after a month?
