Just had a test ride yesterday on the DCT model. First time i rode a DCT, had to get used to it at first, did not like the D stetting, shifts up to fast and not down fast enough . But than i tried Sport 1 and 2. Those are good, sometimes flip one gear down if you want to but workes great. Also a handy cruise control. When you get used to it, it offers a very relaxed ride. But if you want it is fast enough. Good screen and i'm 1,69 meters tall (about 5ft6 / 7) and had no problem with the hight of the bike , which is not always the case. All in all a very good bike and i can understand that people like the DCT. I heard that in the Netherlands more than 50% buys it with DCT. And yes it looks better in life than on screen.

Been riding for years (since 16 yrs old) now at 60 years old can not see using DCT except for maybe the big heavy Gold Wing. I have an Africa Twin AS in manual and like the control. So I an wondering about wrong gears at the wrong time _even just a sight mistake with DCT._ Anyway, if you like DCT, *you* like it.

I got to test ride one of these last year. It was my first time on any DCT bike and I got used to it really quickly. It was a really nice ride. Did find the throttle a bit snatch at low speeds. Im 5ft6 and 29" legs and its was very manageable. The NT1100 was quite an intimidating when I first saw it but that quickly disappeared. I did find I was hitting the menu buttons instead of the indicators, but I think that is just a muscle memory thing. If I hadnt gone for something from the Italian lakes, the NT1100 would be my second equal choice with the BMW R1250RS. Ive seen a few NT1100 in UK and they all seem to be DCT

...yes, people often overlook this option. I had NC750X with DCT, and after just few days of owning it, I switched to manual mode and never came back to automatic. You are in control (within the boundreys of revs) and shifts are always seamless. Now I have BMW F 750 GS and have to struggle for "perfect shifting", without clunking and jerking (owning a bike just few weeks and it is going better every day, but still not there quite yet). So, DCT defenetly have some advantages. Only downside for someone may be low speed manuvering.

Nice review, thanks. In many ways the NT is the modern equivalent of my VFR1200X DCT Crosstourer, which also has D, S1, S2 and S3 modes. Its interesting that, just like with the modern NT, in D mode my Crosstourer goes up the gears very quickly and is in top gear at quite low speeds. For that reason I usually ride around in S1, which gives a much better response. I believe all the S modes do is to change where the gears shift, rather than altering engine performance.

A little later to this discussion but thought I would add my thoughts. Have watch this and other reviews on this bike I had a test ride of the DCT and really enjoyed the bike and gearbox combination. I also rode with the screen at position 4 from the bottom and also found it wind free at 70mph. I didn’t like D mode, it just seems to get into the highest gear as soon as possible and is probably just a mode to meet emissions standard, once I switched to S1 it was much better. I have since ordered the DCT and my dealer said over 80% are DCT.

I have a funny feeling that we may never see this bike in the U.S. Honda’s market share in the U.S. Adventure touring segment is basically limited to the CB 500X. The Africa Twin was supposed to fill the gap but that bike has a much more off-road bias with its long travel suspension. The NC 750X is more of a commuter bike and isn’t great cruising at 75 mph. The VFR 1100X was a huge failure here and I don’t think the dealers want to go through that again. I will be interested if it makes it here but I am not getting my hopes up.

Rumor is for those who go DCT truly a life changing experience for what remains still just two wheels with one drive wheel so great to hear your input. I'm sure in future iterations Honda will figure out how to start saving on the weight, improve both efficiency and drivability even more...entire *"NC"* offering by Honda has both reinvented Honda in all of the right ways but I think just an opinion of course saved "traditional" motorcycling which is only now #interestingly coming under pressure from the likes of Zero Motorcycles and LiveWire #former_Harley Hopefully the rest of the Industry takes note as once motorcycling becomes two wheel powered drive well, let's just say huge fan of the Yamaha GTS writing this.

But on the other hand I dislike a bit the Chain transmission. What I like from the BMW R1250 RT is the Shat transmission, the design and the Dynamic suspension adjustment but Truth to be said I am a very quite non adventurer driver. Also I have seen quite a few video people compleaining about the reliabillity and expensive maintenace of the BMw one. So here I am still pulling my hair off and not that I have much left.

Biggest difference...hmm...RT is heavier & has a more solid, stable feel, much better suspension & a lot better torque/pull from low RPM, better wind protection and electric adjustable windscreen (which I do adjust all the time while riding, I have 2 settings that I like and each is dependent upon my speed), this to adjust the screen you have to stop and walk around to the front of the bike and manually move it up or down (most screens you can adjust while riding). But this has Apple Carplay & Android Auto, which I would use if I had it on my RT. Bottom line, I'll keep my RT, I wouldn't trade for this even if they gave me more than it was worth. take care, Scott

So I'm now looking at this bike as I test rode a new Stelveo at the weekend, not for me I'm afraid but the NT1100 looks like a possible option for me, I'm a lazy rider 😂 Great review thank youv👍

My wife and I are going to Switzerland for 6 weeks and renting the NT1100 but they do rent a manual transmission. Here in the US I have a AT manual, CB500X manual. I had purchased a 2021 but had 1200 miles. I was at a store and Harley riders totally destroyed it. Police here are being defended so the investigation fell flat. My insurance paid for it. Looking at relocating out of country. My wide is Filipina so may go there. Maybe convince to live Switzerland 6 months and 6 months in the Philippines. Enjoyed your review. The NT1100 is just not available here as from dealers there is not a market for it.

For long distance touring, my motorcycle would have to be shaft driven or belt driven. Wouldn't want to clean a nasty, oily chain every 300 miles while on an 1800 mile round trip. Don't like the idea of oil slinging all over my bike and my pants.

I have DCT on my Honda integra 750 motorscooter, and I never want to switch again to manual gears. DCT feels like driving a 50’s Cadillac 😅.

The Honda dealer in my area doesn’t sell any bikes over 500 cc except goldwign.. So I would have to drive 40 miles to see nt1100.

i think the nc750x dct is better overall only because of the frunk. nt1100 looks cool though. too bad its not in the US yet.

Dct anytime. Coz the gear box, clutch plate, engine will be in a very excellent condition. No burnt clutch plates etc.

I hate that rear seat and rack being 5 to 6 inches too high. Put a fully adjustable shock on the rear and drop the seat height. With the suspension, put a 130 lb. Passenger and the rear would drop six inches, which is ridicules. Other than the rear seat area I like the styling.

Finaly...great review as usual.Well,in Dusseldorf they sell about 60 percents DCT compare to manual but still I would go for manual.Also,the salesman told me they cannot get enough of those since so many guys would like to have it.Only the price puts me off bying it...maybe in one or two years the used one.The best regards.....P.S.Do you think it's insane this days to by an 2012 NT 700?

Na, it's not insane, the old Deauville is still a great bike and will run for a long time, sure it's 10 years old but if you take care of it, it will take care of you. 👍👍 I like older bikes, they still have some soul left, this NT1100 is missing that "soul".

I’ll never get why one would want a DCT on a motorcycle…?! It’s an active hobby, it’s about involvement, about feeling reward when you master the ride ever so slightly more and more perfect… in a car commuter, yes, but in a weekend motorcycle, no!

Nice review. But I don't get all the down grading from all manufacturers. You mentioned Goldwing somewhere, but that Thing now looks like a bad Starwars design. And the gap between the 1800 and (not even) 1100cc is to big. I mean even the old Pan European was a 1300cc. Yamaha has the same problem. Top of the line touring bike from Yam is now a Tracer 900. That is nowhere near the beautiful FJR. And frankly, how nice this NT1100 may be, it is too nowhere near a Pan or Silver wing or what ever. All that said, I like your style of review 👍😃

Yea, agreed 👍 they need a 1300 ish bike to fill the gap. But all they look at is the business case study & just move on, regardless of what the consumer wants 😒

The disadvantage of Honda NT1100 is a very low maximum payload - only 192 kg. Regardless - you cannot load more than 22 kg of luggage in total. A little too small for a long trip for two

In the States that minimal payload makes it a "bike for singles" 😂
