Hi Guys!
Time for a bike review now!
As you could have seen on my last post about Basilicata, I have changed my bike from a Honda Crosstourer DCT in favour of a sport tourer like the legendary Honda Vfr 800.
Therefore I have got to give you as usual my impression on the Crosstourer.
Honda Crosstourer DCT:
"The 130 horse-power engine give me almost the same happiness feelings which could only give me the Ducati Multistrada. What's more, this Honda is more comfortable than a Gs1200. Does it sound like a great bargain? It is...indeed!
I consider myself to be a "traditional" biker but had lots of fun getting to know with the DCT (the automatic gearbox). Of course, it has some limits, but not the limit you might think it should have. It's not the kind of automatic gearbox which makes you deny the day you thought of trying it. Instead, its paddles are easy to use and the changes between the gears are fast enough together with the engine power even on low revs.
You can see its negative points just pushing the bike to the limits because the gear changes are calibrated on revs and sometimes happened a gear change in the middle of a curve. That's not a good thing, especially if you didn't ask it...you know!
By the way the gearbox it has a double-clutch and you won't feel it...just hear it.
It will takes you a while to get used to but it's worthed...I promise!"
In a nuts shell: "You must try it!"
