    Wheelies on a DCT?

    I see all sorts of fools "stunting" with their sport bikes on public roads and freeways on YouTube. Has anyone ever done a wheelie on their DCT? Is it even possible?

    Emergency braking with and without DCT

    Had to yank on the front brake this morning on I-15 while cruising at 75 MPH. Went from 75 to 30 real quick. Glad I had the ABS on my DCT. Some cager two vehicles ahead of me decided they needed to almost completely stop to move over to the HOV lane for a left side exit last minute. As a new...

    2015: What did you do to/with your NC700 today?

    By far this is my favorite thread on this site. I look forward to seeing what everyone did on their NCs, especially on days like today where I had to drive the car to work because of the rain.
