DCT maximizes the gears where the riders can feel the perfect timing of shift changes and the feeling of acceleration and deceleration, and performs the precise electronic control with each model. We focused on finding the ideal setting that offers you perfect rides on various scenes, like Relaxed Cruising, Sport riding on a winding-road and aggressive off-road riding. It's time for you to experience this joyfulness of Jinba-Ittai which means a motorcycle will become part of your body so you can take control the scenario.
The evolutional idea that changes the concept of motorcycle with DCT knocked down various problems and finally succeeded production of the VFR1200F in 2010. The development team imagined that the customer's smile whith this automatic gear shifting. But, team didn't stop there and gave birth to the Flagship-model, GOLDWING in 2017. We will continue to create the future of DCT for our customers and will capture more precious moments with their motorcycles.
