Dual Clutch Transmission lets the rider enjoy the riding feel of a manual without the need for shifting or clutch operation. To make this system accessible to as many riders as possible, Honda offers it on a variety of different motorcycles, optimizing its structure to match the engine and model characteristics of each bike.

For example, the NC700S, NC700X and Integra are New Midsize Series motorcycles that feature the same frame and engine, yet the Integra has floor-like steps not found on the other two models. To harmonize this particular feature with Dual Clutch Transmission, Honda optimized the clutch and crankshaft layout shared by all three members of the series.
