If the DCT isn't a real motorbike, does that mean cars with an automatic gearbox aren't real cars?

yes

Why do bikers criticize the dct but not the quickshift ?

Can't understand, people are like "automatic is dumb on bikes" but they buy quick shifters whenever they can 🤷‍♂️

Coz they never had one.

The acceleration of the Rebel 1100 is quite amazing, it only has a top speed of 160 kph (100 mph) but it gets there so fast there are not many other "cruisers" that can match it over a short distance, I usually get caught once we get to the higher speeds but they have to work hard to catch me lol.

I own a 22 DCT 1100 Honda, and it is a real motorcycle. Has manual shifting not foot shifting if choosing to ride it in manual. On automatic, it can down shift by pushing the manual shifting button too on automatic or DCT setting so it helps like engine breaks too (manual shifting down) up shifting the same. It is good before a high-speed turn and after avoiding using the breaks. This is a smart motorcycle, and it is not a scooter. It has six speeds. I love the integrated parking brake, cruise control, and antilock brake. I rode manual cars and motorcycles, and it is fun, but it gets annoying the shifting in the long run. This Honda is good for the money it cost but more importantly, Honda has very reliable engines.

As an owner of a Rebel 1100, o can assure you, the front end does NOT come up when you rap it. But it makes for great content!! 😂

I am all about the concept of the DCT, its just currently not available on a bike id buy right now. Lets pair it with the four cylinder already, Honda!

I love the so call real bike and this one too, today i relax with mine and is just such a joy. Here in the states thr dealers still 2023 can not keep then on the showroom. You find non, unless you order it for your self.

Im almost 6ft tall and I found the Rebel 1100T to be fairly small, buy still doable, but once I saw this: 3:48 It made me realize how huge I must look on it. If I had to get one, they may make a Manual one in 2024 now. Retails $1K less too, so might pick that up.

I'm not a fan of that type of bike but it does look good and as for not being a real motorcycle coz its a automatic well what about bikes with a quick shifter just my opinion

I like it, good job Honda. It would be nice to have to have trunk for a Helmet

Just under 6k on mine. It's a amazing machine. Gives you options between scooter and Supersport all in one bike. Super fun in the twisties but easy around town. For those complaining about the DCT, what are your opinions on slipper clutches? Not a huge diff in my opinion. You still have to manage shifting if you want to get max out of the bike whether it's overriding the current gear selection or switching to manual.

I would love one for long-distance touring but at 6ft the seating position is a concern ;-[

Honda need to bring out a forward control option and an option to move the seat back and up a bit. Forward controls are an aftermarket option but they aren't cheap.

Sounds like Piers Morgan with a helmet on. I love it. 😂

my left ear enjoyed this

As i understand, Honda has option for more forward foot controls. I'd prefer those...

Only from aftermarket companies and they are expensive, £500.

Sounds like my VFR750.

What about those who may have a disability that prevents them from using a clutch?!? The DCT is perfect for them!!! I guess that a Dodge Challenger Hellcat with an automatic transmission is not a “real” car!?! Give me a break with that nonsense!

A big Honda cock-up imo! Looks like a cruiser but feet are under you instead of way-out-front like Harley's, SO, I cannot consider it but thank you for testing!

How tall you are?

Make sure you have a toilet break before riding it unless you're short enough it doesn't put you in a crunched position. 😂....can get forward control on them....

@originalshadowfax Lol, as much as I would love to, my slightly deformed left hand stops me from riding a clutched bike, also do you drive a car and if so is it an automatic or is it a proper car, with a manual gearbox?

dont like dct..

Like the thought of an auto, shame the bike fell out the ugly tree.😢

who cares of its automatic, just fking ride your own bike!

The Rebel 500 and 1100 seem terrible. Cramped riding position, uncomfortable and terrible handling. Much better cruisers out there
