@@emadreviews bought my rebel 300 last year may 23 after not riding bike since 9 11 94 when I got T boned... Had a 82 GL500 silverwing with just about 100k miles on it when I got hit... the rebel I rode down to key west and back and had no problem keeping up and passing traffic. Miss the tac but you really dont need it if you shift by ear... and yes the fuel gauge is a plus.. it blinks when you have less then a half gallon of fuel left...
I really appreciate the Rebel 300. I have no intrest or need to ride on the expressway in my car, truck or on my bikes. The Rebel gives me plenty enought power to cruise around town or cruise at 60 on the back roads. The bike can easily jump over 85 so if I need to pass, I can do so in short order easily. Really a great bike. It was very buzzy, but after about 1k miles, it has smoothed out quite a bit. Perfect point A to B bike.
@@OnALivingSpree-yh5xi Maybe slightly just do to the fact that you may feel a bit cramped on it due to the low seat height and the foot pegs set more in the middle of the bike rather than further forward. But you may only feel cramped like that if going for long rides that are multiple hours. Don't see your enjoyment being too hindered on shorter rides and city commuting. I'd recommend a test ride though! Then you'll know for sure.
I had my Rebel 300cc for three years as long as I had my motorcycle license, my first bike 🏍 and I just traded her in for a Harley Nightster 975cc I feel kinda a sad to had to say goodbye to my little Rebel and hopefully the Nightster isn't to much for me.😔
As someone who has never owner a bike before this bike looks beautiful to me. However, it sounds like a lawnmower haha. I hate a loud bike that pisses everyone off when you drive past them so maybe this is a good thing
Rebel 300 was my first motorcycle, except for the screaming and begging engine; it was a good, easy-to--handle bike. Honda could do a little better to improve this Rebel 300's engine performance .
I’m not going to get a motorcycle for at least 2 years but I looked at the rebel 300 and just been like that would be a perfect starter for me or else the 500 but preferred 300 to start but when I looked at Honda in my country and they only have the Honda cmx500 rebel and the cmxs500 rebel and when I looked price you could get a rebel 300 abs for 5.150 usd + delivery in USA in my country the cheapest is the cmx500 rebel for 12.400 usd It just really big price difference The only thing I would like to change about it is I heard it don’t show rotations so I feel that is a thing I feel like a beginner would like the possibility to see so could change gear better without maxing it out
@@gbtriumph3216yea I live in a country called Denmark in the EU and all motorcycles is just a lot more expensive here A cmx1100d rebel which is the dct cost 26.608,75 usd directly at Honda and I think that without shipping
only problem I found out with the rebel 300 is that the chain lasts for maybe 12k miles.. just got the 8k check up on it and was told I might need a new chain soon but if I get an upgrade chain I can get one that lasts longer.. my 82 gl500 silverwing had 100k miles on it and never had to change the chain or come anywhere close to it
What do you guys think of the Rebel 300 ABS? Here is a link to the bike (if it's still available): www.everettpowersports.com/default.asp?page=xInventoryDetail&id=14107325&p=1&s=(Sort%20By)&d=D&sq=rebel%20300&fr=xAllInventory
Been riding 300ABS for two years now. Absolute love for this bike. It will keep up with highway speeds, but, as stated, it doesn't have the HP to get sudden bursts when needing to use the passing lane. I have personally seen above posted speed limits on this bike. I have saddlebags, a rear luggage carrier and a tool bag on the forks above the headlight. You'll need to downshift going up hills. The mirrors are unusable over 65mph due to handlebar vibrations, but that's a thumper for you. All in all, this will get you anywhere on road you want to go, just not quickly, and, for the price point, it'll be more places than if you bought the more expensive bikes because of the money saved.
@@MrEnzoPuttini unfortunately too many people die to lane splitting in the US. So most people collectively are like “yeah let’s not do that”. But there are still places in the US that it is common
It's got plenty for daily cruising and around town bobbing around. I've had mine at 70mph in 6th gear and I can lay forward with one arm on the tank and get down the road quite comfortably. I don't want a bike that accidentally does wheelies or will slide out sideways because I accidentally hit the throttle. If you do a lot of interstate and highway 80mph+ driving then yes, this is not the bike for you. I love mine.
Rebel 300 is a great commuter bike even for experienced riders. Great fuel mileage, and rides great!
Agree. We gotta let go of the idea that low displacement equals beginner rider only. I for one enjoy small engines!

I have a 2017 500 ABS and love it. Both the 300 and 500 are great city bikes.
I thought "slipper clutch" just meant softer pull, especially for women. Gradual rear engine breaking you explained was refreshing. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Great screen presence mate. Really enjoy the way you run through each bike.
Thanks for watching!
great video! only issue is the audio is only in the left channel! Nothing out of the right speakers
Thanks for the feedback! I’ll look into my voice recorder settings!

@@OnALivingSpree-yh5xi took mine to key west and back highway speeds no problem nice quick pull out from the light to get away from the cagers
What is meant by buzzy?
Great reviews and good info, thank you! Watched the whole thing, not a second wasted.

Yeah I gotta figure out why.
A Honda só faz pesquisa, mas ainda não trouxe para o Brasil.
Sem dúvidas venderia muito.

I don't know what country you are in, but the Rebel 1100 DCT is about $12,400 US. Are you sure that price is correct for a Rebel 500?

even when I started riding back in 72 you really dont need a tac you can tell when the engine is winding to know when to shift
Would be more beginner friendly if it had a belt drive instead of a chain.

Why is there no rebel 300 wiki info page ???
Got one my ninth bike.
Omg never new about sliper clutch omg now im fresking out about geting a bike
The 1100 is automatic although it is much more expensive.

Emad, is this good for my highschooler to get him to school and back?
Depends on the kid, but if I was to give a high schooler a motorcycle, it probably would have been this one yeah!

Why are you using the clutch shifting up. No experience I think
Low power
Yes, great for beginners and folks that want to save on gas.

the rebel looks ugly best small bikes are vstar 250 and royal enfield 350s. i ride small to get the 70 plus mpg
