Went to our local motorcycle show today. One of the cooler things out there was this cutaway of the engine/DCT transmission of the new Africa Twin. Just thought I'd throw it up, as there has been a lot of discussion about the bike on here.

I wish I could have taken better pictures w/o the glass case, but alas. Very impressive and compact package, and the smallest timing chain I've ever seen.

Great photos of a cool cut-away. I remember seeing a similar one for the Yamaha Super Tenere at the IMS in Minneapolis a few years ago.
