more DCT models must mean they are selling right? good to see the DCT being adopted across more of the range! when i run my NC into the ground which at this rate is going to be many years i'd love to try one of the larger engined DCT bikes.

By the bye Andrew - how’s the Helix coming along?

Yep... I PXed the XMax400 for a NC750X with DCT... and fitted a scottoiler
The ease of the DCT is just crying out for a belt...

Doesn't a Scottoiler or similar solve almost all of the problems a chain brings? I've never had a PTW with a chain, but if I did, I presume that an oiler would help a lot. How many miles will a chain on an 750X last? OK, like how long is a piece of string, but I've no idea how long a chain might last.

People who want to do 180mph and high speed wellies

Are they like these?

Just noticed that there's another Honda DCT option - the Gold Wing!! Yours for a mere £24k (for the basic version!).

I do like the Gold wing, if I had space and money for such a beast,

It has excellent reviews everywhere, I would go for the bagger over the full version personally, and nearly new ones can be had for around £17k which is a lot, but a bit better than £30k + for the full monty version...

I thought about buying a ‘Wing with DCT they were heavily discounted last year but I’d have had to sell my other bikes and I don’t do high mileage anymore and getting one out to go shopping lol. Bought a new Honda Jaz instead with DCT and I love it.Interested in the new 750 Forza when I can get to look at one

I was appalled by the weight and awkardness of the Pan European I owned for 3 weeks, so I'm certainly not going to dabble in something that weighs 100kg more - unless they fit it with stabiliser wheels!!!
