I'm toying with so many ideas at the moment, I have an idea I might be needing to run downdraft carbs, will bike carbs run in this orientation or do I need specific bike downdraft carbs

you'll need downdraught carbs as the fuel floats inside the carb wont work due to the change in orientation etc.

Most modern sports bikes run semi down draught carbs , with the carbs being mounted around 30 defrees, under the tank.

My Suzuki RF runs downdraft carbs. Made by Mikuni.
Only problem with downdraft carbs is the needles touch the side of the emulsion tubes and wear them out of shape. A common problem on the RF series motorbike is oval emulsion tubes which causes poor running until the main jets kick in (over 4k revs).
