Default Re: Dual Clutch - nice visual demo - Honda Mid concept

By the way, how does this improve mpg?
Basically it makes you ride like a girl / Colin Edwards, smooth & flowing. No burning away at the lights or sudden bursts of acceleration, when your just enjoying your SV's easy power. Its these little moments that bring down my weekly mpg from a possible 70-80mpg down to 53mpg.

Your right though getting it to work well with all the various speed changes on a motorbike in town traffic would be the real test.

I was more interested in the 3rd mode which was the Up / Downshift flippers on the clutch handle. The changes are still extremely smooth and thats the real point of the DCT system.
