    DCT Stuck In Gear

    From my first post, the bike was checked by the service dept (after I had already confirmed the kill switch was NOT activated by my hand) and everything checked (electronically) out except for the fact that the engine was stuck in third gear and the only way they could get it out of gear, was to...

    DCT Stuck In Gear

    I didn't hit the kill switch. Engine was still ON while no response was felt from the throttle. Battery tested fine. Battery connections were fine. Could be a possible electrical gremlin somewhere else with the DCT, or a gremlin with the DCT itself. Time may or may not offer a clue.

    DCT Stuck In Gear

    -Nope, I did not hit the kill switch. -The mechanic said he has no idea why it got stuck in third, just odd. What makes even more odd to me is the fact that I was in D(rive) mode going about 65 mph when I just wanted a little more gas to climb, I never touched the manual shifter, so I wondered...

    DCT Stuck In Gear

    I was driving home last night on the freeway and started to climb a slight rise in the road, giving it some throttle I noticed nothing was happening and had to quickly get to the side of road without being hit. There was absolutely no warning lights that came on UNTIL I came to a complete stop...

    Can happiness be found with DCT?

    thinking about switching to yamaha...

    Wildone: Sorry to hear of your problems with the NC, and even more so for the fact that your being kicked while down on your luck. I have a 2014 NC700 DCT and had the meter replaced, the trunk has not been recalled for me, and the starter relay is affected and now parked at the shop, so that...

    Honda recall

    Mine is in the shop waiting on the starter RELAY (not a switch). The service rep said I should come in IMMEDIATELY to have it 'tested'. When I talked to the actual mechanic, he said the 'test' is looking at the serial number on the relay. This dealer has replaced a few and has seen one wire...

    Does my DCT have a problem??

    Go ride in the S mode for awhile, it shifts up and down more aggressively, then go back to D and see what you think.

    Potential owner seeking advice from current owners

    Going from memory here: Madstat windshield as soon as I took the bike up to 70 mph and found out just how much wind was hitting me. 6th gear, no problems, don't notice any more vibrations than on the GSA or Yamaha Super Tenere (and a LOT less than the GSA). Seat, yah, I must admit that it's...

    Next step in evolution of Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT)

    The AT will have the left foot shifter on the DCT as an OPTION, this makes perfect sense for off road riding as it is a stretch for my thumb to change gears if I want to. If the AT was out when I was looking for the DCT, I'd be on it now, now I'm thinking seriously about the AT with DCT.

    I got XM radio a VERY long time ago, then took a leap of faith and paid up for a life-time subscription when they were running low on funds, it has since paid for itself many times over. I have a Zumo and they key is NOT to have the antenna right next to the unit, on my moto is mounted on the...

    Gotta figure out how to safely turn tube tires into tubeless tires; I don't want to commute to work and not be able to throw a worm in the tire.

    DCT Manual Shifting Question - how to stay on a gear?

    I know the Sport mode will be more aggressive with shifting than the Automatic mode, but not sure about the Manual, my guess is if you want parking lot practice, use the Automatic mode.
