Not 100% sure, I will find out when they are available.

I rode the DCT and manual, both road tyres.

They are taking a £250 deposit to secure order. First bikes coming in end Feb, so guess order now for later March, but will double check.

I've just signed up for a manual one...delivery November!

Did you prefer the manual or auto?

Prefer manual, but I guess if I was to use the DCT more I might actually prefer it

The CrossTourer guys like their DCT version

A friend had the manual but when he attended the Honda Africa twin off road training in Wales, he tried the DCT.

He loved it, as did everyone else!

Having 10.4 extra kg made the decision to not even test ride it very easy.
