Ok, this is clearly not a motorcycle but it wouldn't be hard to incorporate something similar (left throttle to control?). Probably not that useful in lower gears as there is too much going on and not enough time/skill to properly manipulate but in higher gears changing the pipe tune to match rpm could noticeably increase power. Anyone know if it has been done before?
EDIT:
Although not the best form factor for a bike, a flat 4 500cc two-stroke is pretty cool. Anybody know anything about it? I assume 4-125's put together by an evil genius?
It looks like a flat 4 bike has been done before. They went with cylinders aimed at wheels. Check out this ridiculous belt routing.
