You've heard all the hype surrounding Honda's 2010 VFR1200F for some time now. You've seen the pictures, made your judgment about its controversial styling and are no doubt enamored with its technological wizardry--namely the Dual Clutch Transmission. Well our man Siahaan is in Japan and finally got a chance to ride the new machine in all its glory around the beautiful Sugo circuit on the northern side of the island. While he doesn't reveal all that the bike has to offer (you'll have to read his full writeup in the print magazine for that), he does get one thing straight right off the bat: Honda's DCT is the real deal and will change the way we look at motorcycling. Check out his blog here to read just what he has to say about the new system. And be sure to read the magazine for the full rundown on the bike.
