Wow, that's exciting. A full, mechanical manual is something of an exotic these days. Hopefully the Integra will signal a return to manuals for those who want them. I was thinking I'd have to preserve my Fiesta ST forever. The new generation Civic is the first to not offer a manual in the U.S. Maybe when the Si or R are released, they might.

What?

No 1.5L Turbo 4-inline VVT with CVT mush box?

but the pre-load you can very easy change with a manual weehl......?........just again its not a track + hyper cornering bike...only for fine touring so is preoload most more as enough .....

and in case you would have later realy a special wish ,,,you can change to a ohlins suspension or some like this....

or
you want basically pay 2000 more for a fully adjustable landing gear you have it but you need it seldom or never extra ?

I'm not suggesting the adjustable damping for high speed cornering etc, I know it is not a track tool. But for a bike designed as a tourer which would take varying loads it would be reasonable to have adjustable damping.

But I agree, a lot of people who have it never bother to adjust it and never find out what a really great ride they could achieve.

40-50hp down on the competing suzuki? Isn't the competing suzuki the Vstrom 1050? They're about equal in bhp aren't they?

My '03 Strom 1000 is listed at 105hp.

My '03 Strom 1000 is listed at 105hp.
2003 Suzuki V-Strom 1000 is capable of about 128.8 hp @ 9360 rpm. Max torque of about 84 ft-lbs @ 6260 rpm.

In any case, the Strom is over 0.8 seconds faster in the 0-60 and 1/4 mile statistics.

GO maybe you can describe the power and motor characteristics of the AT for us?

Is there power enough for riding two up with gear?

With the 270 degree motor is it throbby like a NC 750?

What kind of real world gas mileage do you get?

Is it buzzy at freeway speeds?

I can speak from the 2019 CRF1000 (998 cc).

I have done two-up with only some gear (about 1/3 gear). The bike is the least complaining I have owned under this condition. The engine certainly doesn't complain.

Since I had the 2018 NC750XD, I can strongly say the engine is not the same. It is a whole different beast. Can I make the CRF1000 mill throb? Sure. Just leave it in "Drive Mode" and it will throb accelerating from stop, but it will pull like a tractor. Use "Sport Mode 1" or higher and it behaves like a sport bike. Alternatively, crank the throttle in Drive Mode and the ECU will adapt to what you really what. You actually have to be careful what you ask for.

In terms of fuel economy for mixed riding during the three main riding seasons, it is about 5 L/100 kms (47 mpg U.S.). I spend a lot of clicks in the 4000 to 4500 rpm area in 6th.

Unlike my ol' CB1100, the CRF1000 is incredibly smooth at freeway speeds with no hacks - straight OEM. The CRF1000 (and even more the CRF1100) accelerates very to extremely well at freeway rates.

For CB1100 owners, on paper the 2014 CB1100 and 2019 CRF1000 are exactly the same in the quarter mile and 0-to-60 mph stats. The CB1100 is definitely smoother during acceleration, but the CRF1000 seems to just open wide. I would say the CB1100 is faster in 3rd and 4th compared to the CRF1000. I recall the CB1100 just punching through every time. But, the CRF1000 doesn't give up and keeps accelerating and launches very well down a gear (or two if there is room).

I strongly feel the CRF1000 is superior in traffic compared to the CB1100, especially if it has a DCT gearbox.

In terms of everyday commuting, the NC750X is king on the fuel economy compared to the CB1100 and CRF1000. Even if you ride the NC750X hard, it still gets better fuel economy.

I have never stalled the NC750X nor the CRF1000, both with DCTs. Even when stuck in long, windless, hot, profusely humid traffic congestion with rap emanating from a few dark cages, these bikes shine.

I'm confused. What won't be in the garage? I've had Integras... One from the early 90s. and the other the most "recent" type R from about 13 years ago? The manual transmissions were great. Sure, it was VTEC, but not sure I see the harm in that. Certainly no CVT!
