After the recent ad for a DCT Crosstourer I am intrigued by the whole idea... I have had tons of bikes, ridden tons of miles both as a job and for pleasure, ride almost daily and am always looking for the next "thing" to float my boat... I am a bike addict and a ride day is a better day...
I got into BM GS's in the late 90's as I was bored with Japanese sports bikes and have a 12RT and an 11GS at the mo... So what is it that makes me interested in a DCT Crosstourer...? Its GS shaped, seems to have a good engine and the DCT idea is a pretty good attempt to get something extra and different out of a bike...
I though that CVT diesel ADV bike was a non starter as it had no gears and was too pricey but even though I like clutches, if an idea came out that beat it, it wouldn't be a great miss...
PS I have ridden twist and go's as well and bikes of all sizes, designs and styles... They all have something to offer and make a bit of a challenge of it...
So what do you guys think...? Especially those of you who have ridden plenty of bikes and had a ride on DCT'ers...
