So, I've given my thoughts before on this forum about the Honda DCT transmission. After owning a 1200f DCT for six years, ( one of the bikes I sold to get my "B" ) I can tell you it's pretty freaking cool. This was the first iteration of the DCT. I love technology, so the combination of the incredible engine in that bike, the advanced design of the bike as a whole and the automatic shift transmission made this bike an intoxicating experience to ride.
Very low speed maneuvers are a little different with the DCT. No clutch, so you use delicate throttle input and rear brake for tight low speed stuff. You don't have the infinate control using clutch, brake, throttle. After you are underway though ( 5mph + ) the transmission works flawlessly. 90% of the time I'd ride in "D" mode unless I was totally thrashing it or wanted much quicker downshifts , then I'd just flip it to "S". Hardly ever manually shifted. The transmission shifts so smoothly, quickly and accurately.... It really is quite an experience riding a DCT transmissioned bike in a high horsepower application.
Probably some traditionalists that would say they can out shift any automatic transmissioned bike, off the line I could just mash it and totally leave anything and everything. Engine had a lot to do with that, but the transmission is never without power to it between shifts. When it's GO TIME just twist to the throttle stop and bye bye..!
There are some good utube videos showing how stable the rear suspension is with zero jacking under full throttle. The availability of a DCT for the next generation Goldwing is a complete no brainier..!
