2010 Vs, Later Version Gen 7

...So, doing tight 3-point turns, or maneuvering through a tight parking lot is a bit more of an effort in control....

Have you tried Manual Mode for slow speed maneuvering?

Not sure that changes anything as even in D mode the bike is in first gear. It's all about throttle position. The DCT just doesn't have the added precision you get with a clutch in terms of controlling power to the rear wheel. This is one reason I can't see DCT, or any variant, making it on an a serious off road bike.

As far as hot launches, before ECU re flash they were non existent, after re flash noticeably better. I haven't really played with power braking or other tricks. Either way, wouldn't be a match for a clutch equipped equivalent. The 1200F version would toast the DCT off the line. Let's face it, if wheelies and drag racing are in your riding mix, don't buy the DCT.

I keep hearing about this 'Re Flash'. What is that?
