Nice, enjoy.
Have you used a DCT before?
Only today on a test ride (and SWMBOs Audi). I was expecting to be disappointed, but actually liked it.

Ordered a 2018 model ATAS today, DCT version. Collect in 2 weeks.
Yeah, I like it as well, for on-road.
I'm using my Africa Twin DCT as my winter bike and off-tarmac adventures. Ideal really.
Still think its a good bike and wished my BMW R1200 had DCT
One great side effect. Boots that I have bought and found impossible to use because the toe was too thick to fit under the clutch lever... No longer a problem.
I paid £11,750 for one of the new 'Sports and the price included a centre stand. I'm unsure of the price I paid for the bike on its own, will check the invoice tomorrow.
Noticed only yesterday that Honda have increased the list price by £450 to £13,999 with immediate effect.
And all 0% deals are set to end on 3rd January.
Collected my bike 12 days ago. I went for the DCT version. I've been riding an 1100GS since 1997. So... All change.
So far? It's a hoot. Took me about 10 minutes to adjust to the different transmission, took me longer to adjust to the silly indicator switch. But that minor niggle aside, I love it. So odd to be riding a Japanese bike (only my second in 36 years) and... A bike with a chain too. Not that that worries me.
First service at 600 miles... With the advice being to (effectively) ride it normally... Or conservatively as they put it. That's alright, I'm not feeling exactly limited. time of year....
The way it goes from a standstill to moving is very slick. Gear changes upwards are seamless...so smooth. It's great!
I laughed out loud on those few occasions in the first couple of days, when, without thinking I reached for the clutch lever.

The gear lever to peg gap is short on the ATAS, my boots wouldn't fit either.
