Darn you Honda

You could try formalizing the swap of the Camry and the Highlander and, once done, sell the Highlander.

They have addressed all of the criticism of the early Honda NT1100's attracted with the new 2025 launch bike. A lot of practical changes, bigger panniers that can now take a full face helmet, redesigned screen which you can adjust on the bike and an electronic suspension option. They have also added a 6-Axix IMU to give it cornering ABS & Traction.

The 6-Axis IMU is an important component in conjunction with the DCT version of the bike. It makes much more intelligent decisions on changing gears.

I spent 12 days in the Dolomites earlier this year with a group of riders. One fella was two up on his 2024 DCT NT1100. Hairpin bends up and down mountains was our lot every day. He found his DCT changed gear at the most inappropriate times and he found it more than a little stressful. He found himself using the manual finger shifts most of the time instead. The new 6-Axis input into the bikes DCT brain should mitigate some (maybe all) of the silly gear change choices the bike can make.

It has been restyled a little bit too, for the better I think. Looks well in the Ash Metallic and Blue too.

Nice looking bikes. My NC 750 DCT gear changes are almost imperceptible, even in a corner, I'll look down at the gauges and find the gear number different than it was before. I WILL use the down shift paddle before going up a hill or going down hill thru tight curves. I find the DCT trans brilliant. If they have found a way to improve it, that's amazing.

It was not any roughness of change "The Ferret", it was more the appropriate choice of gear for those hairpins. You generally needed no more than 2nd gear (sometimes 1st depending on other traffic) to pull out of that steep and sharp hairpin without bogging down.
