    Why do some motorcyclist use their hazard lights when driving between cars. It makes no difference to your visibility, if a driver cant see your headlights they're not gonna see the hazard lights when moving through traffic. The headlight also over powers the front indicators anyway so it'll be pretty hard to tell they're even on. It's only really noticeable when the bikes passed and the car drivers looking at the rear of the bike.

    I liked your video as I’m getting back into biking after a 30 year gap, and this bike seems perfect for me. But can I just say, as a former advanced level motor cycle instructor, at 11:07 you demonstrated the danger of filtering between lanes of cars. It is very difficult for drivers to see bikes doing this at speed as you did. The Merc driver is correctly indicating before changing lane, yet you aggressively kept going as if looking for trouble. Like it or not, the biker’s motto should always be “ride defensively”, and this was a prime example of how not to do that. Thanks again, and Bike Safe!

The first time I test rode a brand new one it was a weird feeling not having a clutch nor the gears. I felt like I was missing something and I was, lol!😄 But, having my Dct for almost than a year, I'm not sure if I want to go back to a clutch permanently. I'm loving what I have so far..

      @@TheAbstract35 I suggest you take a course and learn to ride a manual motorcycle first. That way you get the understanding of how a motorcycle with a clutch and gears work. Practice at that for a couple of years then if you don't care for gear shifting, then try a Dct...you may like it or you may not but it's not a beginner motorcycle. You need to have prior knowledge of manual riding you know what to look for and how it handles.

I found mine on cycle trader. It's a fantastic bike. 70mpg very smooth. It's pretty light and fast. The frunk is very useful. I'm 6ft3 195lbs and I have no issues. I did soften the rear suspension by loosening the spring. Very easy to do. The seat is the only issue. It's rock hard. Other than that. The bike is perfect.

    I loved my 16' NC700X DCT until a woman decided I shouldn't change lanes in front of her and sped up, knocking me off the bike and causing frame damage when it hit. My minor injuries have healed. I'm looking to get another Honda. DCT has spoiled me for other bikes. Its so much easier and I can concentrate on where I'm going instead of which gear am I in at a stop light. I've ridden several other bikes and the NC was my favorite. Can't wait to get an NC750X DCT when they are in silver. (Are you listening Honda?)

    I'm getting my 2019 DCT tomorrow! I made a test drive and was impressed with how the system works, so flawlessly! Have been riding for 40 years, had all sorts of sport bikes and nakeds, and against some hard headed friends that thought the DCT was for pussies, I'm gonna show them you can carve on b-roads with it as well as (or better!) than the classic manual gear/clutch transmission bikes they have! It seems that everyone's forgetting there's lots of high spech sport cars that use this system for a long time. So why not with bikes, too? It's time to be innovative, don't you think, guys? On top of that, is more economical, easier and smoother..., so only prejudice will stop many from getting one of these babes. Thanks for the video!

    I feel in a decade DCT automatic transmissions and CVT automatic transmissions will replace the manual transmission because newer potential motorcycle riders don’t want to mess with a manual bike and won’t have the desire or ability to operate a manual transmission because 85% of cars trucks and SUV’s are automatic transmissions not manual transmissions so why not motorcycle’s.

      @Texarmageddon 4 года назад

      Rusty Beatty what time frame are you living in? Dude, motorcycles have been on throttle by wire for a long time. Meaning there is just an electric signal sent to the ECU and cruise control is handle by that alone. Now if you have an old bike than yes.. your only choice is a throttle lock. Secondly, as I already said bikes run off throttle by wire... bikes have the option now to have a quick shifter. All you do is press the shifter and it will shift or rev the engine for you when shifting down. DCTs are an irrelevant piece of technology when it comes to motorcycles other than purely for convenience.. There are no performance benefits for a DCT on a bike... on cars yes.. as there isn’t such a thing as quick shifters.. on a bike it’s just pointless.

    Thanks. I wonder if there is a more comfortable seat option or after-market one. I would love a DCT bike. I would have loved a DCT kit for my 2013 V-Strom, which was just perfect except that I get hand pain from using a clutch lever. I rented the first version of the NC700S manual, which felt too cheaply made for me. Having got used to the very well built V-Strom, which I recently - stupidly - part exchanged for a new Yamaha Tmax 530 DX, maybe I could get used to the bike you are showing here. The Tmax is an awful machine that sounds like a broken washing machine. Apart from the noise it makes, it's very good - super smooth and exceptionally easy to ride with a passenger at very low speed - but the noise is SO BAD, I have to change it. Maybe the 2017 NC750X DCT (low down version) is the one for me...? That seat, though, looks very uncomfortable for the passenger, and I love my wife too much to ask her to go from a perfect V-Strom seat to an 'O.K.' NC750 seat. Thanks for the video.
