Yes, I have, I have driven rotax, 125, 250's, sprints, and Briggs. You didn't say it'd have a cage, it better have a GOOD cage lol, like a full TUBE FRAME...why not just make a little formula car with no body? Thing is with karts with superbike engines they just spin and make lots of noise, it's hard to make one actually grip and be FAST on a course at least. No kart series allows seatbelts or cages except for a couple dirt track and oval classes btw.
