How about this one? It's from Malmsteen's "Far Beyond the Sun". Actually, I don't know if this is the exact run, but it what I play and it sounds pretty close to me. This is in F# Minor, and it's easily transposed.

I can't alternate pick this very fast yet (I suck, but I'm practicing), but with legato I play this at around 200+ BPM at 16ths... it impresses people who don't play guitar :)
