    2015 Honda Rancher DCT

    I'm thinking about buying a new 4 wheeler. Does anyone have experience with Honda's new dual clutch transmission? I just want to know if anyone has had any issues with them or not.

    I hadn't heard of it until this post. It sounds like just an upgraded ESP that shifts the gears for you. I'm not completely sold on the idea, but then again, I didn't care for a belt drive cvt until I rode one. It doesn't look like they're available yet so I doubt anyone would have much experience with them yet. If you're really interested in one, I say wait until you can test ride one and then make your choice.

    I plan on going to check it out soon. I need something I can just get on and go. I'm so tired of working on stuff all the time.

    I don't have it yet. They are putting a plow on it for me. It's a 2014 Rancher AT. It's red of course. My dad told me it had better be red! I will post pics as soon as I get it home.

    Yeah I'm a grain hauler. I really like it. The automatic transmission is really nice. It can be a little jerky once in a while though.

    Well I had mu first problem with it yesterday. I had been out riding and I stopped to put it in reverse and it wouldn't tell me what gear I was in. Fortunately my friend was with me. He pulled me home. I went out this morning and it worked perfectly fine. I think I must have gotten water in something.
