I'm sure it will just get better!
Glad to hear that. Great review. Thanks! I hope you keep us posted!Nashcat said:It's everything I had hoped it would be. I had no problems adjusting to the DCT, but I have to admit the left foot still dabs for a shift lever when coming to a stop.
I've got a bit over 2K miles on my Stallion Brown 'Wing Sport. I never did a test ride either, and I have no regrets. You'll get used to the DCT in time. I do still roll of the throttle when I'm in manual mode and get on it once in a while. I agree with all you said in your mini review, this is a sweet machine.Well, I picked up my red DCT Tour on Wednesday. I had not even done a demo ride, so my first ride was a non-stop 150 mile ride home. 20 miles yesterday and another 150 today, and I'm still learning all the bells and whistles.
You MUST have your helmet linked to the bike first, then plug in the iPhone. Also, do not have your phone bluetoothed to the bike. That seems to confuse it. CarPlay is great! IMHO.... I'm still working on getting Apple CarPlay to show up on the screen.
Speaking of bells and whistles: does it make that lovely ST1300-characteristic whirring-and-chirring sound? or is that an aftermarket option sold separately?Well, I picked up my red DCT Tour on Wednesday.

I followed one a couple weeks ago... it does until it retracts the wheels and goes into levitation mode, then it emits an eerie sound. ;-)Speaking of bells and whistles: does it make that lovely ST1300-characteristic whirring-and-chirring sound? or is that an aftermarket option sold separately?
Does that void the Honda warranty?!...plan on mounting the BMW Nav V...
Thankfully no! Warranty is the main reason I didn't get another BMW. I was also looking at the Grand America. I got the Honda extended warranty, which gives me 8 years total - unlimited miles.Does that void the Honda warranty?!
