It was only a matter of time before Honda's Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT) found its way onto more of the company's streetbikes. This spy photo appears to be a European-issue Honda CB600F Hornet equipped with DCT (note absence of a clutch lever). Even if a Hornet DCT reaches production, there is no guarantee the model will find its way stateside; Honda hasn't imported the 599 (the U.S. version of the Hornet) since 2006. DCT debuted in production form as a $1500 option on the 2010 VFR1200F.
