Bike engined go kart - what can be used?

Am already planning to build Tiger Super Six kit car over the winter, but fancied something to build over the summer and have some fun with.



So my question is - what is the most adventurous bike engine you could feasibly fit onto a go-kart type chasis without breaking the bank? Has anyone built for example with a Ninja engine? If so how have you arranged eg clutch/gear change/engine mounting-orientation in respect of gear change?



I know that may sound ridiculous but this would be for fun not for entering a league to race with and thus obsense power sounds good to me... altho i do worry how it would go round corners



any thoughts appreciated



cheers
