[@nightwaddie5426]

As someone who recently passed the MSF, the 650 might be the bike for me. Not too overwhelming with power but 100% more than enough, and the fact you can learn with/without a clutch as you get more comfortable is super cool.

[@LifeOfBurch]

Congrats on passing the MSF! The 650 really could be the perfect bike for someone like you! I can’t wait to see what all it does for beginner riders 🙌🏻

Honda 650s are perfect forever bikes. I wish they put that engine in more platforms.

[@GentlestMonster949]

It’s a good starter bike however taking the easy option which is pretty much what this bike is designed for, it will take away people experience with shifting so if you go to move to another bike you may struggle, and I believe Honda has the e clutch pattened

[@chucksherron]

@@GentlestMonster949 Yamaha just released something similar for their middleweight bikes.

Wow....The Honda E-Clutch makes Honda's City Bikes (CB) more of a City Bike than ever before.....Amazing. I see this very useful in rush hour traffic when your clutch hand is tired.

[@LifeOfBurch]

Absolutely! When we did our test ride day on the E-Clutch bikes, we ended in stop-and-go traffic after riding all day, and the E-Clutch was suuuch a blessing! Some might even say it…came in clutch 👀😂

[@gregr3576]

@@sk8orhate55I am very close to your size. 6’4” 260 lbs, 34” inseam. Probably pushing 300 with my boots, armored jacket, and backpack. The Rebel looks awesome and was my dream bike but it’s way too small for me, feels like a toy. I went to MSF back in March and they put me on a Honda 300LS. It felt very comfortable so I went looking for one. Dealers can’t keep those in stock (popular due to lower seat height on the regular 300L) so I ended up buying a Honda 300L Rally. The size is good for me, wish the suspension and seat were better. My biggest issue is that top speed is 70 mph so not good on the highway. So I’m looking again. I sat on the Honda NX650 at the dealership yesterday and it felt nice - around a 32-33” seat height. I think that’s the minimum seat height for me so that is ruling out several Honda models and almost all HD’s which sit so low. The Tenere would be a good choice and the Transalp feels perfect but I want a DCT. So it looks like it’s an Africa Twin for me even though I am not thrilled with the color choices or the >$15,000 price tag.

As someone who rides every day instead of owning a car, DCT is freaking amazing in traffic. Wouldn't mind the electronic clutch for commute/fun ride bike but honestly would probably just ride a fully manual if I was just hitting the twisties, but I LOVE the dct when I hit stop and go traffic. Best thing about both options is they just show there is still plenty of room in the market to innovate.

[@RJPugz]

I saw the same exact Green DCT 1100 at a Dealership in Jersey. It’s beautiful

[@motocatz87]

As a fairly new rider I would've liked to have practiced my shifting in a traditional way, but still have the security of not stalling out. They should've made the E-Clutch the ability to be fully automatic. And going forward they should develop a DCT model that comes with either the traditional clutch that works like the e clutch or the shifting paddles. It's better to have more options. Thanks for the review!

The automatics are great. Glad to see honda didn't drop it but expanded on it with the rebel 1100. Best part is ive yet to meet a person who rode automatic the whole time. Most rebel 1100 owners i know use it to commute but have either a supersport or fully kitted adventure bike for fun

[@TGalanos]

Another great video. Thanks, Burch! Did Honda make any hints at bringing the e-clutch to the Rebel series?

[@LifeOfBurch]

Thanks!! They of course said that the E-Clutch will be coming to more bikes soon, but wouldn’t give any hints as to which bikes that would be. An E-Clutch Rebel would be super rad, but I think the tricky part would be leg placement on a cruiser interfering with how the E-Clutch sticks out. It’s not an issue on these bikes cause your leg’s tucked back behind it, but on a cruiser your leg would be right over the E-Clutch, which could be weird. It’ll be interesting to see what they come up with though!

Just like how slim the NC750 seems compared to a a scooter capable of getting higher speeds that tend to be pretty large.

[@TheGreyWolf757]

Any word on if they plan on installing the e-clutch on the Honda Rebels? I plan on getting a motorcycle (looking towards a Rebel 500 as a first and only) at some point next year as something to cruise around on the weekends and get to and from work without the hassle of parking in our cluttered shipyard parking and that e-clutch would be great to have when I'm getting off work with all the stop-and-go traffic.

Hi, does the saddlebag width on the Rebel 1100 Touring model exceed the handlebar length? I'm considering getting the Touring model, but I do a lot of city riding with lane splitting.

[@Coldlegend214]

but still the e clutch is only for specific bikes right? they can't just slap it on any bike I choose?

[@ItchyBones]

Not yet, but I hope we see more with it. That 650 doesn't interest me much, but a Rebel 1100 or a Transalp with E-Clutch would be a dream for me. DCT is cool, but it does get a little boring. Would be nice to have the option of clutch or nah.

[@Dagnis8]

I feel like the next step is to make the e-clutch able to automatically gear shift without the dct. Don't see why that wouldn't be possible. Then you can have the best of both worlds, a clutch to pull when you want to let go of the gas and slow your engine braking, and a fully automatic when you just don't want to care.

[@metalsadman]

I think honda can pull it off just holding it because dct has been a staple on their flagship bikes, the weight savings on that is quite great.

[@Dagnis8]

@@metalsadman I feel like a mechanism could be added to the shifter in the e-clutch. The mechanism wouldn't be a whole new clutch like the DCT, but just something to switch the gears and using the existing clutch. Would probably weigh less then the dct by a decent margin. Would allow then the user to do all 3 modes and go from fully automatic to fully manual if they'd like. I'd consider selling my 1100 for another 1100 if that was the cause, mostly so I can learn full manual, though I'd probably sit somewhere in the middle with the e-clutch just being used to stop myself from stalling.

[@notpablo8369]

On the Rebel do you need to ease off gas throttle when manual shifting?

[@metalsadman]

is that a kit on the 1100? planning to get 1 of these someday, it's quite a steal for its price IMO, probably lacking cruise control but that ain't needed in our roads.

[@LinkFelton]

I think what would be great is to update the Rebel 1100 to have the E-Clutch as an option. Potentially dropping the pure manual option. I think it makes sense.

[@jb1three.]

On the cb, Can you be in Manual mode and still have quick shift?

[@crphilipp]

Don’t understand why anyone would want to shift when DCT works so well.

[@jstutz2003]

Peoples preferences are a spectrum. Most people wouldn't want a motorcycle that self drives to the set location, but there are some that would. I find myself on the opposite end. I like controlling my own clutch and gears. I wouldn't want a DCT, but the E-clutch would be a nice feature since you can pretend it doesn't exist and the bike operates just like any other, except you can't stall it out if you want to.

[@SirDiesAlot89]

DCT looks interesting

[@coreydavis7810]

I wish that there were some lightweight adventure bikes (or dual-sports) that had what I call a "semi-auto" transmission -- basically like most of the ATVs I grew up riding and racing, which were manually geared but clutchless. I have experience riding standard clutched dirtbikes from back in the day, and I have had a number of manual transmission Jeeps and trucks, which I miss dearly. I love manual SUVs and can readily drive most anything with a clutch. Currently drive an automatic F150, and not sure that I could even find a new manual stick truck or SUV (maybe Tacoma, maybe Jeep?). BUT, to be honest, on both bikes and race ATVs, I've never really enjoyed riding anything controlled by finger clutch levers, even though I love manual clutch control in vehicles. Now that I'm much older in age, I would like to get a light adventure bike to ride on the blueridge parkway and firetrails. I would love to find a bike that shifted similar to an ATV. That is, semiauto, I guess. Brrrrrrrrrump, throttle off, foot shift up, then brrrrrrrump, throttle off, foot shift up; and then, when decelerating or downshifting, throttle off and downshift sequentially... No clutch involved, but still manually geared... Probably sounds stupid, but just wondering if any bikes might have adopted this type of "semi-automatic" drivechain. This Honda E-Clutch seems on point, perhaps?

[@isaiahj117]

[@Mark-qp1mj]

[@nicholasrighi6923]

Does anyone know if the e-clutch system is able to blip the throttle on downshifts to revmatch, or will downshifting with this system put more wear on the clutch over time? From what I can see online the cb650r is still using a cable throttle but I’m not too familiar with bikes yet.

If you turn the bike off does the e-clutch setting reset, to turn it back on, or does it stay off until you go into the menu to toggle it back?

[@LifeOfBurch]

I don’t remember testing that since I made it a point to leave it in E-Clutch the entire time, but one of the other reviews said that it resets when the bike turns off. So I think it resets, but can’t say with 100% confidence 🤔

[@Tarkov.]

@@LifeOfBurch That's kind of disappointing for people who might share the bike with another person. My aunt can't drive a stick but my uncle can, in their case one person could prefer the e-clutch and the other would want the manual experience.

[@Dr._Nope]

Would you recommend either of these bikes with either of these transmissions to a returning rider? I used to ride a Ninja 650 with my dad around three years ago, but ended up having to sell it after my parents split up. I've missed it ever since then, but I've gotten rusty. I tried riding my dad's Honda Hornet 750, but I ended up having a small crash on it cause I wasn't used to how sensitive the throttle was in comparison to my old Ninja combined with me not being on two wheels for such a long time. I don't know what rider mode the bike was on, it definitely didn't feel like a rain mode. If I got one of these bikes, would it be reasonable for me to pop the bike into rain mode and start learning again? What would you recommend?

[@LifeOfBurch]

Honestly I think either of these bikes could work as a “coming back to riding” bike! The Rebel 1100 has different ride modes so you could absolutely start in rain mode, then work up to standard, then finally up to sport mode if you choose. The DCT itself will be a bit of a learning curve and obviously would make it a little more tricky if/when you want to move onto a bike with a clutch though. On the other hand, the CB650R has the E-Clutch which could definitely be used as a tool to help you get used to using a clutch and riding again. And although the CB650R doesn’t have any ride modes, I found that it’s more tame and less twitchy at lower speeds/RPM’s than the Rebel anyway, so riding modes didn’t seem as necessary. The Rebel is very punchy down low, but the CB likes to be revved out to get all the power, so it’s really not intimidating until you wind it out. I’d imagine the power delivery would be similar to the Ninja 650 that you’re most familiar with.

[@Dr._Nope]

@LifeOfBurch Thank you so much for replying, man! I honestly had no idea that the inline 4 was more relaxed down low in the revs like that, that eases my concerns a little bit when it comes to that engine! I see 90-something HP on the spec sheet and that intimidated me a lil bit. I always appreciated the ride itself more than the speed or the fact that I was running a manual. Way I see it: I'm personally more concerned about riding safe than anything. If I can spend less time focusing on things like shifting or working a clutch and more time on my surroundings, my fundamentals, and just enjoying the ride, then all the better in my book! I gotta look into both bikes and see what I want out of them and what appeals to me at the end of the day. I like how I still have the option to use the clutch on the CB and the CBR just cause of those slow speed manuevers, I always hated using the rear brake, I almost never did on my Ninja. So, being able to use a friction zone helps a lot. Plus, I always have the option at my disposal for practicing on the bike as if it was a regular manual like any other when I'm ready for it and I'd be able to move onto other bikes that didn't have an e-clutch if I wanted to. DCT's nice if I didn't want to have to worry about the manual whatsoever, which still goes back to my whole philosophy on safety being the most important thing

[@Dinotti]

[@andrewnelson1369]

I think DCT is easier for new riders that are new to shifting and maybe don't care for it. E clutch seems like it would be good for someone who is new but likes the ability to shift. I have a 22 Rebel 1100 DCT and love it. I do miss shifting but would only trade the bike in for something else DCT or E clutch but stronger than the 1100.

[@yamaharider8014]

I like the E-clutch and DCT, bc my old hands get stiff some days. Both bikes allow their systems to be shut off. The DCT is more scooter-like---Just twist and go. It also has 2 clutches, one for even gears, and one for odd gears--More complex. The E-clutch seems like a simpler system by just cutting out the need to clutch-in by hand, when the system is ON. Time will tell if the E-clutch will be a reliable system in the long term. New tech is great till it breaks down$$$..From Florida.

E clutch vs a recluse clutch?

[@jimporter]

You don’t need DCT to do automatic, that is just a holdover from Honda wanting to use it for racing. You can do automatic with a standard gearbox, the EMU, some switches and a couple of actuators as others are now showing (BMW, Yamaha, etc). Honda will probably start doing the same, dropping DCT across the range (as it is expensive in both cost and weight and requires two product lines). Other manufacturers have been quick to drop the clutch but people always complain about slow speed control, E-clutch now gives Honda advantage over others especially if they learn their lesson and retain foot and finger controls thereby making everyone happy. Automatic bikes are going to be a thing in the near future as rules in the EU now require cars, buses and trucks to come with speed monitoring and other tech, bikes are currently exempt as the capability was not there, but the big manufacturers know it is only a matter of time and are starting to adapt.
