No, 1023 it is not one of the multiples of the base 2 (binary) system. 1024 is. 1024 = 210. Of course 1023 can be represented in base 2 however as 1111111111.
The base two is binary. That's where bi- comes from.

Binary describes a number with a base of two.

385 base 10
10923 base 10
A binary number is a number expressed in base-2 numeral system, which uses only two digits: 0 and 1. When you say "of eight," it is unclear what you are referring to. If you are asking about the digit 8 in binary, it is represented as 1000.
Normally we use base 10 meaning 14 means 1 set of 10 plus 4. In binary we use a base 2 (0 and 1) instead. For example the base 10 number 2 would be represented in binary as 10. 3 would be represented as 11. 4 would be represented as 100 and so on. Applying this to 14 is simple if you know the basic concepts. 14 is equivalent to 1 set of 8 + 1 set of 4 + 1 set of 2. Therefore 14 is equivalent to 1110 in binary.

The binary number 11111111 represents the number 255 in base 10.
Base 2
To answer this question, we need to do a quick review of our numbering system. The standard numbers we know and love are usually called "base 10" numbers. Base 10 means that every tenth number adds a new significant digit. In the binary number system, numbers can be represented with a series of zeros and ones. For example: 0,1,2,3,4,5... (base 10 numbers) would be written as: 0,1,10,11,100... (binary numbers) Binary numbers are useful because they can be represented as 1 or 0, TRUE or FALSE or HIGH or LOW in computers (which have a harder time understanding base 10 in hardware). A bit can be thought of a single digit in a binary number.
The number 21 in binary is 10101
First lets start with some basic concepts. We normall use base 10 (0 through 9); Binary or Base 2 uses 1's and 0's. In base 10 the place values are based on 10 ( ie 14 means one set of 10 + 4); in binary the place values are based on 2. 2 would be represented as 10 in binary, 4 would be represented as 100 in binary, 5 would be represented as 101 in binary. Applying this to 14 results in one set of 8 + one set of 4 plus one set of 2, which gives us 1110 which is 14 in binary.
