    Where are you getting your facts from? If the DCT is anything like Honda’s other DCTs , none of them outperform their manual counterparts. The new GW is rated at 125 hp compared to 118 hp of the F6B and there is only a 35 lb difference wet with same amount of fuel 800 to 842-7 lbs. The new GW also has more hp loss due to heavier rear wheel. Have you got any magazine specs of acceleration times or dyno numbers?

    Did you not see the published quarter mile times for the two bikes? It's a one second difference. How do you plan on overcoming that?? It's ok to dream but the reality is it's wrong .

    First gear on my 2013 Black, I'm bouncing off the rev limiter before I can get my foot on the peg. That wheelie messes me up every time.
    Second gear pulls as hard as first!
    I just cant do multi tasking under those conditions.
    The DCT will have to make up some ground against a whole shot like that.
    I suppose if I practice enough I could get it right. But I want to enjoy it for the rest of my riding days.
    But,, I would love to have the DTC if I had a choice.
    I'd be ridin smooth and sittin perty.
    ITS ALL GOOD

    Corbin is changing that problem as we speak (type). They have come up with bolt on/color matching saddlebag replacement doors that increase capacity and looks OEM.

    They look great in the pics. Have no idea how much they are.

    $100 per litre of extra storage.
    "Honey, does my ass look fat with these bags?" "No dear, you still look cool like the F6B guys.."
