I get where people are coming from on the "bikes are mental fast" thing, but the E63 wasn't slow. 550bhp*/720Nm of torque meant that even as heavy as it was, it got moving pretty rapidly.
Would a 600cc sports bike be that much faster? Any faster, in fact?
*They inevitably give more than this on a Dyno, but the 550 is the figure from Mercedes
It's also definitely not all about being mental fast. Being able to see / feel your suspension, the sound & smell of being in the open air are much more visceral additions than speed.
