MCN reports 2018 Goldwing runs the quarter at 12.86. Cycle world tested the F6B at 11.84. I think that a lot of guys might be faster on a DCT than a manual shift. Unless you've drag raced alot most of the time you can't take advantage of the full potential of the machine. On a manual shift most guys won't watch the tach and shift at redline. They will short shift and lose to a guy that races regularly. They may have the fastest bike but lack in drag racing skills. On a DCT they can realize the bikes potential because the transmission is determining the shift points. No watching the tach needed. According to the sources above , I think that one second differential would be hard to overcome. I believe the F6B would spank that 1833.
