Honda REBEL 1100 reviews

I’ve had my 2014 Honda CB1100 for a while now, and it’s been a solid, dependable ride. What drew me to this bike in the first place was its blend of classic styling with just enough modern touches. It’s got that vintage look but doesn’t make you feel like you’re sacrificing performance or reliability. Speaking of reliability, this bike has never left me stranded. I’ve kept up with regular maintenance, replaced the battery, and recently put on new tires, and it’s been running smoothly without any hiccups. The engine crash cage I installed also gives me that extra bit of confidence when I’m out on the road. When it comes to quality, Honda did a good job with the overall build. The bike feels sturdy and well-made. However, I’ll admit the stock seat wasn’t the most comfortable for long rides. After a few trips where I found myself squirming after a couple of hours, I swapped it out for a Corbin seat, which made a world of difference. If you’re planning on doing some serious riding, that’s one upgrade I’d highly recommend. Performance-wise, the CB1100 is just what I was looking for. It’s not a high-speed monster, but it’s got plenty of power for city rides and handles itself well on the highway. It’s a versatile bike that can do a bit of everything, which is exactly what I needed. Great for starters and enthusiasts. Comfort-wise, it’s pretty good overall, especially with the new seat. The upright riding position is comfortable, but again, if you’re doing long-distance rides, you might want to make a few tweaks here and there to suit your needs. Not having cruise control options could make long-distance traveling slightly less enjoyable. All in all, I’d recommend the 2014 Honda CB1100 to anyone looking for a bike that’s reliable, versatile, and easy to maintain. It’s not going to blow you away with raw power, but it’s got that classic charm and solid performance that makes it a joy to ride. Show less

Classic 1985 Honda Rebel 250 cruiser with low mileage and near perfect body. Extremely well-kept bike with same owner for last 25 years and stored in-doors. Rides smooth and easy for a classic cruiser that is ideal for either new or experienced riders. Trickle charger included with bike just needs to be connected along with original manual and brand-new Yuasa Yuam327BS-YTXL maintenance free battery. Priced to sell/move in this summer warmth... well below blue book!! Show less

The Honda CMX 1100 DCT bike is a terrific ride! The Honda Rebel CMS 1100 is safe, quick and has great ergonomics. This machine is an all purpose cruising or delightful road trip bike. The bike performs as it as built, strong in every variable. This is a one-off dream machine. Show less

This is my son's first bike. It's a great, safe starter motorcycle no doubt for beginners. My son loved it so much and commuted to his high school daily. Easy to maintain. fuel efficient and reliable brand. Never regretted buying this bike but it's time to upgrade thus need to say good bye to her. Show less

The Honda Rebel 500 is a phenomenal bike that breaks the mold of traditional motorcycle style and escapes from the boring boulevard drone. The twin-cylinder engine is surprisingly quick for its size and style. The blacked-out look, light weight, and low seat height are perfect for new or experienced riders who want a bike that looks tough, and Honda’s slip/assist clutch makes learning to ride so much easier. Cruiser-class bikes are often thought of as being slow and turtle like, but the Rebel 500 is happy to kick it up a notch. With ABS anti-lock brakes you'll have a safer ride. Plus, for 2021, Honda added the new Rebel 500 ABS SE, a version that comes with Black Diamond-Stitch Seat, Black Fork Boots and Covers, and a Black Headlight Cowl. Discover the new Rebel 500 and escape the ordinary. Show less

Bought this bike because I liked the look of it, mine is Pearl Ivory Cream and Black, named her Pearl, lots of tasteful aftermarket studded accessories, driving lights,saddle bags, etc. Lots of torque, almost as much as my 93 V65 Magna, which is saying something, factory exhaust does not need replacing, excellent exhaust note, turns easily in the 16', very nimble, vibrates a little due to the single crank pin but that's what makes it even greater. Can't believe these bikes go for so cheap. They're a hidden gem. 81,000kms on mine. Replaced all fluids voluntarily, oil and filter of course every year, brakes and tires recently and I'm good for a good while yet. Love the bike. It's on bikez.com it's way in in the pics but if you look you'll see the front of a tractor to the right in my garage. Don't hesitate, get one. Really fun to ride. Show less

My Honda is really good looking, if you want to get back into riding, or if your small like me, the Honda Rebel is low seat, only weighs 418 lbs. handles really well. has enough power for interstate riding. it's really quick,comfortable in my opinion, no numb butt so far, no vibration in the handlebars. very easy to control cornering,fantastic lean angle.no it doesn't have a gear indicator, but easy to hear rpm's to shift. has A B S, brakes are really good. it's a really great bike with enough power without being over powered for new riders, of just learning to ride.i definately recommend the rebel 500.

Love my 2002 Shadow Sabre 1100!! found a well kept model with 35k miles. Retired military vet kept up on it, damn near showroom condition. lots of extras. I wanted the exact bike new, but couldnt afford one at the time. similar but better looks than the Fat Boy, for half the price new. Red paint with flames. the only issue was the electric lift assist pump for the gas(per mechanic) failed on the way home late at night. had to push it a few blocks. other than that, still Love the bike!

Always getting compliments. I left the Honda emblem off the tank to create some mystery. Sometimes i miss the sound of my Harley exhaust but i love the dependability of the Honda. Show less

I bought this bike end of June 2014 with 8660 kms. It now has 123,000 kms and still has original brakes and clutch. No major repairs, great torque and handles beautifully. I love this bike! I recently bought a 2001 Kawasaki Voyager xii, which I also love, but have no plans to ever sell my Honda. Show less
