Copy paste from the Honda R&D Technical Review (October 2012):
Fig 18: In a mild riding pattern it will downshift / upshift more times than the brisk riding pattern, which will keep the same gear throughout an S turn. I'm not sure I'm describing this correctly... Forgive my bad english!

I thing the figures in this documents may tell you more...The dual-clutch transmission enables selection of two different AT modes: D mode that also takes into account fuel efficiency when driving in urban areas, and S mode that takes into account sporty riding on winding roads. In addition, there is also an MT mode than enables riders to manually shift to select an arbitrary gear position using Up/Down switch built into the left grip, for a total of three modes that can be selected.
NC700 series development focused in particular on differences between various driving environments and rider styles in D mode, and expanded the D range coverage to support a wider range of driving styles. That is to say, when D mode is selected, the optimal shift control is automatically performed in accordance with rider's driving style, enabling support of a wide range of driving styles, from relaxed riding urban and suburban areas to brisk FUN riding (Fig. 17, Fig. 18).
In addition, manual shifting can be performed using the Up/Down switch even when AT mode is selected, and control was incorporated that uses an auto return function to return to AT mode at the optimal timing according to the running status after manual shifting.
