M = change with the lhs triggers but if you chug it will take over and downshift at low revs I've had 2 x DCT crosstourers then a manual AT and now back on DCT AT I am older and weaker nowadays so...

Re: Lowering Africa Twin weight
Hi, I am on my 2nd AT but when I bought the 2018 I was determined not to resort to lowering it like I ended up doing with my previous 2016 bike.
