Mine is the DCT version. I bought the DCT version thinking that If I don't experiment around now with different bikes ... Well father time does march on. Basically the bike is over-the-top, a very cool machine. Even the exhaust sound right. The DCT is great for dirt/gravel/mud etc.. especially when standing on the pegs. The more you slip and slide the more the "auto-transmission" makes life easier.
On pavement the DCT is so-so. I ride two bikes one with DCT and one without. So I have to go through this adjust period when I get back on the Africa Twin. If I don't adjust then stupid little things tend to happen.
All and all it is a really great bike. Me and the wife double up and it does the touring stuff fairly well.
In a money doesn't matter world I would have two Africa Twins, one with a standard transmission and the other with DCT.
