That will end Debbie's riding soon unless we find a Sport Touring bike with a DCT or E clutch.
Something like the NT1100 would work.
I was thinking of that when I saw this.
Something lighter is always better and they make an NC750X with the DCT as well, and for only $9400. I don't see the NT1100 for sale over here but there is an Africa Twin DCT or a Rebel DCT with the 1100 engine.
Yes, the NT1100 is not available in the US and doesn't sound like it will be in 2024.
She didn't think she would be happy with the HP and Torque of the 750.
The NT1100 and African Twin have a lot less power than her last four bikes but the reviewer say they have decent power.
Next year we'll try a 1250 or 1300GS to see if we fit two up. The RS doesn't have enough room for our feet and legs.
One of the guys we're meeting next week in Yellville Arkansas had planned to bring his new GS for us to try but he's having a problem with it and will probably bring one of his other bikes.
