Honda has 7 bikes that have the E-Clutch, what else do they sell that you don't have to pull the clutch?

Honda’s E-Clutch has already proved a success in the initial bikes to adopt the system and the DCT on the Rebel 1100 and Goldwing are bulletproof. —the CB650R and CBR650R—and for 2026 the company is spreading the design to more machines as well as adapting it to work even better. Now Honda has added E-Clutch to more models: the CB750 Hornet, Transalp, CBR500R, CB500 Hornet, and NX500.

Motorcycle.com says the Allthrike Vettore from Morini and the Ibex 450 from CFmoto are the same bike, but are they?

Morini says theirs is better, it has a center stand, a 3 position reversible handlebar mount, a larger 6" tft, a larger 255 rear brake rotor, a more off road high front fend with a lower sub-fender to protect the rad, a 2 piece seat, a .3 gallon bigger gas tank and backlit controls. Since both bikes are $6499, I guess it's going to be up to the buyer.
