Thinking about my wife riding occasionally, I’m starting to look at a non foot shift model. Two that come up are the Yamaha Grizzly and the Rubicon 520 DCT. I’ve looked at the Can Am max a bit but will be truck boxing for now so not sure it fits the bill as well.
Any comments on DCT vs Belt drive on the Yamaha from experiences? I can’t say I love the look of the Grizzly as much or the fender design but guys sure love them and reliability is up there for me.
Thoughts or comments?

I have a '23 Rubicon DCT and because of the type of riding I tend to do, if I had to do it over I might go with something CVT. I'm mostly going through trails @ 10km/h-ish, hovering right at gear change speed and switching between 1st and 2nd a lot. It's a much harder shift than CVT that I find a little jerky/annoying when moving that slow. No one else seems to mind it. I'm probably being a prissy &$^#@.
Zero complaints apart from that.
