Up to now I have been riding a Honda CBR300R. A good bike to learn on. In my non-bike life, I drive an automatic transmission car. The 750x DCT has caught my eye. I am 5'10" and the height and balance of the bike seems comfortable to sit on. I am not a fan of constantly changing gears and would rather use that energy to pay attention to the road and enjoy my surroundings.
I am wondering what are some of the idiosyncrasies or general thoughts of the DCT that other riders have found? I do not know of any other DCT riders in person and non-DCT riders have been generally negative about the idea of the DCT: You will be bored. What will you do if the bike shifts while in a corner? You will have less control over the bike in general. You will have less control going down hills. You will wear down your brakes faster. Something else that can break on the bike.
Can you please provide your thoughts?
Thank you
