Hi all. Fairly new rider here and currently own a Honda Shadow 600. I use my bike for occasional commuting (weather permitting) and weekend rides. I've been looking for my next bike as I prefer "adventure-style" commuters. I've been trying to decide between the cb500x abs and the nc700x /abs. There are 2 things that have been holding me back from the nc - one, the price is much higher and, two, the DCT. I've been reading through threads of people's feelings around the DCT but am curious how it performs on tight slow-speed turns (which can be challenging for this new rider on my cruiser). Also, the extra money is a tough one but I can get over that if I'm extraordinarily happy . Needless to say the DCT is intriguing and I'm in love with the false gas tank storage area!
