Absolutely Mr Ferret. If we had ten of these anti auto guys lined up to ride any one of these bikes mentioned every one of them would have a big smile on his face after testing one. Would they buy one? Probably not but down the road when the big bikes have gained weight and when the will isn't there to ride for hours at a time..... they may very well reconsider.
I mentioned trikes and for me at least the price and the size (since I don't ride double) make little sense to me. (And I've never ridden one). I've made the statement when I get to that point I'll take the car. I'll keep an open mind about it.
I love my little Vespa and it's quicker then snot up to 50 miles per hour and great fun. A mid sized bike like a CTX700 makes a lot of sense to me at my age. I don't know it I would go for the auto on that bike or not but I'd certainly consider it and especially if one would come up on the used market.
I am interested in the CTX1300. It's not going to be a DCT bike. I would think a goldwing with an auto would be the nuts and especially for the fellow going to the trike conversions. It has to happen.
And how 'bout the bosshoss? That's an auto. Tell me the guy riding one of those isn't a "real man".
