Africa Twin test ride

[Flipfly]

Will the DCT on the Africa twin not have the option of a foot lever like the CrossTourer?

I can't get my head around pressing buttons to change gear, but with the Cross Tourer you can buy a foot change lever to make it feel like a normal geared bike, but with all the advantages of the DCT.

I'm very tempted, but I'll wait for a few secondhand ones to appear before looking seriously.

I'd still be £10k short

What's the camera btw? It takes stonking pics.

Hasn't got that much to do with the make of camera.

Yes it's an option for luddites

Can't find it, you could've splashed out the price of a ham and pea soup with tea and bought a new one by now

Got it, but can't make head, nor tail of it...............FFS

I ride several different bikes every week which may help but honestly mate, even with an old fecker like you it's become intuitive very quickly

GET THE DCT!!!

Can't believe I've just said that!

Oh and did I mention GET THE FECKIN DCT !!!!!

I always feel slightly out of control driving automatic cars, especially in slippery conditions.

So I'd dismissed the DCT as an option.

But after that, perhaps I'll treat myself to a test ride.
