Motorbikes need to have balanced engine to prevent rocking sideways to much. Take the BMW boxer engine or even the Moto Guzzi V-twins. They throw the bike sideway already while being only 4 cylinder engines.

I am amazed at the instant response to the throttle, for such a physically large engine with lots of inertia!

I am sure the carbs would have been adjusted. Also don't forget that the engine is not in gear and it is not being used to turn a large lump of steel/wood/aluminum.........
