I know we motorcyclists don't normally compare bikes on 0-60mph basis, but out of curiosity, I was wondering if anyone had ever seen that documented/posted or has measured it themselves accurately?

I don't have a answer for this. I do know when I can go from 0 - 60 and still be in first gear, I'm usually busy looking down the road to see what is coming before I hit second. It is a real hoot to get on the gas. For a big old girl, this bike will git up and gooooo.

The stats I have apparently came from a british test. Others I got directly from BMW's site. I got them over a year and a half ago for a car show/air show I put her in, but these should work for you:
