Fully-Automatic 6-Speed DCT Transmission
The Pioneer 1000-5’s Automatic DCT transmission features paddle shifting, six forward speeds plus reverse, three shift modes (automatic, manual and sport )and two gearing ranges (high and low). It can do all the shifting for you, as smooth and seamless as any automatic, but can also give you total control to shift yourself—it’s the best of all worlds!

This is just one of the reason Polaris owners like myself will be standing in line waiting for the new P1000 to arrive.
A great video.....showing the road bikes with the same transmission...I say the transmission has already been tried and tested...no worries there.

I agree Honda has been running this 6 speed DCT design in the 1300+ cc 145HP Road bikes without issue should do just fine with 1/2 to 2/3 of that HP in a SxS probably had to beef up the clutches due to weight 1400lbs and towing 2K rating of the SxS vs. a 600lbs motorcycle.
