On the contrary, it does. The DCT on my bike "behaves" quite differently now, compared to the first 1000 km. This learning "thing" is one of the reasons, why some bikers do a DCT reset once in a while. I am saying that when I ride in "S1" mode, the bike will not up-shift to 6th gear before I...

It isn't. Had one and sold it. Just couldn't stand the crappy CVT transmission :(

T-Max is rubber band driven :(
