I'm 6 foot 1 and I could flat foot on both sides fine. It is a taller bike though and I think there is different seat height options available, depending on which subtrim of bike you get and maybe even different seat options possibly for shorter or taller riders, if I'm not mistaken.
Not a bad review for a first time DCT and Africa Twin ride. I’m on my 5th DCT bike and 1 Yamaha YCCS (clutch lever less) bike. Takes a while to get used to them and learn how to effectively use one to its capabilities. Once you do, you won’t look back! Ride safe…ps: hated my first DCT bike! lol
Got one and after 4000 miles nothing but great things to say. You really do get all those buttons and DCT but give it about 1000 miles to really dial it in and it goes from good to great
I still enjoy using the clutch too, the dct isn't bad though and actually is pretty good and if it can draw more riders into motorcycling I'm all for it. I think the new e clutch and autos coming from other bike makers will hopefully draw more riders into motorcycling. The more people we got riding the better.
That's my dream bike right there... thank you for the review and stay blessed.
Your welcome and it's fantastic bike.
Thanks for the review. What is the appropriate height to ride this bike?

@@dyeahodar3397I’m 5’6” on a good day and can easily handle an Africa Twin. However, I had to get the lower seat.

Yes it was awesome and would only get smoother and better as all the parts seat in better. Fantastic machine.
Would like to see you off roading with it!
Yeah I know, it's new bike so I figure dealer wouldn't like that lol.
As nice as Honda’s DCT is, I feel like I’d miss having the clutch control. Amazing bike nonetheless! I definitely want one.

Best bike ever
It's a great machine absolutely
