Yup. It's called the Dolomite and its powered by 24 (yes, 24) chainsaw engines. Watch as they start it up.

Why? It still wouldn't have any horsepower.

Anything that spins to 18,000 rpms is bound to make some. X 24, is bound to make some more.

When I traveled to the Isle of Man in the 90's to watch the FIM World trial's event i spent some time at the musaem on the hill looking at past TT racers.
Out of all the home built run what you brung bikes was a 10 cyl bike that used chain saw top ends. Oh the work that someone did to make a 90deg (geussing @ angle) v10. A true work of art.

Another article claims 170ps, which is somewhere around 160hp.
