The weight doesn't bother me since I'm 6'1" and can easily flat-foot it.

At 6 foot 1 I would be breathing different air lol

alprider -- As for DCT - no! I like shifting, I just want a lighter gear lever pull, which I can get for $500 and four hours of my time.
I do like the idea of a V4 but that is one weird engine. I see that the "x" is the adventure bike version. These almost all have no forward lean which would be unpleasant for my back.

Wish list motorcycles. Add in reality and do the best you can.

The DCT can be manually shifted, just as they have been doing in professional motor bike (and automobile) racing.

What do you need a quick shifter for???
RE: Can anybody think of a bike with these properties? - the Ferret - 10-31-2019
To shift quick? Lol

Yes. Or so you can say, ‘My bike’s got a quick shifter’.
