Putting adjustable levers on my Honda Rebel
I have a rebel, dct I updated the seat, and I agreed it is good for long rides. It is better not to carry a backpack since the weight made me tire once on my back after one hour. N on twisty roads. It interfered with maneuvering shoulders. Great review
Thank you 😊 I would love to try the 1100 and dct 😍 Yeah, I have panniers now and haven't carried a backpack since I installed them but still need to sort out that seat!
Getting mine nxt wk 🎉
Yay! Congrats 😀
I have owned 2 of these, an 85 that got stolen, and now my 2003. Great bikes, especially for the price I got them for
Nice! Love a bargin! 😁 Sorry to hear about the 85 model. They are an awesome bike!
My first road registered bike was a KLR 250..87 Model.The most reliable bike I have ever owned.I rode it rain hail shine..Snow every day as my main mode of transport.Loved it.
What a machine! 😍 I love my KLR, but haven't had a chance to test her out in many different conditions yet.
I dropped my rebel 500 in Lorne and snapped the clutch lever I got this MZS tuning levers from Amazon and they work perfectly shifting is so much easier and they do regulate the distance from the bar so they are so worth it. Thanks for the video about the bars Mine still a tiny off but now I now I don’t need to get new handles 😊
I love riding through Lorne.😍 Thanks for the information about the MZS levers. Glad you don't need new bars too! 😊
Best Bike I've ever owned. Have the same like you. And another one in green. This bike will beat the Zombie-Apocalypse🎉🎉🎉
That's funny 🤣 I actually think of this as my apocalypse bike! Two KLRs is so cool 😀 I'm still getting to know mine then I'm doing a full review
@@andymoto 👍👍👍
Just fond out your channel! I love the baggage bags! Where did you get those?
@Jon_Alexson Thanks! I made them myself from ammo boxes😀 I made a full video on how I did it, it's on my channel ruclips.net/video/-Z0N6KGxH2g/видео.html
Quarter Horse. because it's a quarter liter motor.
Lol 🤣 but to me it's a full-sized horse!
I’d recommend getting the valves checked and timing chain that’s a lot of compression for a klr just had my 88 all sorted woth valves and timing chain out starts first kick can even hard start it they also have a auto decomp
Thanks! Yes, I've been looking into the servicing of the KLR and I want to try and do the next one myself and check the vales. Haven't heard about the timing chain yet tho so will look into that 😀
@@andymoto it’s pretty easy to do it all yourself if you check the valves best to check the chain aswell as it’s next to it just make sure you make sure the bike is cold and at tdc when you check them
Gal was all up into that install, even pushing through in the dark.. If you just want to pull the bars back, Voigt-MT makes some really nice pull-back risers for the Rebel. They are super clean looking and the anodized coating matches perfectly with the stock risers. They just bolt on between the stock risers and your handle bars... Google Voigt-MT PC56
Thanks I'll look into it.🙂 Haha, yeap, not ideal, but at least the problem of the bent handle bars was solved.
Brings back sooo many ❤🔥memories! This exact spec was my first bike. Bought it while stationed in late 90s at Fort Worth Texas. Rebuilt the engine on a tarp in the living room of my studio apt. Took the MSF Basic Ridercourse Motorcycle Classes in Fort Worth at Honda. Would commute from Arlington to Ft Worth thru blistering humid summers to Icy frigid winters. Traveled all over the Trinity River 360 trails. The thing was a tractor! I then transferred to Point Mugu, North of Malibu, CA. Was living with my mom who lived 58 miles away @ the 405 & 10 freeways. It was a dream to cruise up Pacific Coast Highway in the early morn fog or cut thru some of the best mountain twisties in the world to decompress on the way home. Ended up going riding with a couple neighbors who had brand new Honda CRF450s and blew out the forks and rear shock. Gave it to my Dad who lived in Venice for Father's Day and have no idea what happened to it from there. Safe travels! I'm sure this High Horse will not let you down!
Love the story! 😍 thanks for sharing. My KLR has been around awhile, so I'd love to know it's history. They seem like a versatile bike that can handle the hot and cold, road and dirt. Don't rule out picking up another one 😂
freaking awesome documentary/ review! thanks for sharing
You're welcome dan! Thanks for watching and commenting 😀🤗
Hey Andy, love the panniers🎉 i bought a 2018 Matt grey Rebel 500 last week. I put leather saddlebags on it for my chain locks😊
I love the 2017-2019 rebels, I prefer the look. It's a little more classic. The panniers are really handy! Great addition to the bike. Thanks for watching 😀
Love watching your rebel videos because my girlfriend is just about to purchase one then get her licence
Thankyou! that's exciting! 😄 It will be great to have a riding buddy. You guys ride safe!
good videos.. and your easy to look at.. ;)
haha, thanks for watching and glad you're enjoy them 😆
Im looking to get a first motorcycle, mainly for distance of a couple hours of driving or maybe some smaller in town stuff, how would it be recommended for a beginner as a first bike? Was looking at the honda shadow but its not suggested for longer trips ive read. Looking at this as an alternative. Would love to hear some advice. Thank y'all
The rebel is a great first bike! 😍 It's my first bike, and I'm still in love with it. It's great for short and long distance, only thing that might be worth an upgrade is the seat for longer trips. In saying that, I still have the original on. My other video called 'The Honda Rebel is awesome' has my first thoughts which gives my first impressions. 😄 Overall, I would recommend!
Change the sparkplug and she will start much easier
Good idea, I will do that at her next service 😀 thanks!
Is that bit that joins the bars at the front made out of metal or plastic? Admire your skills.
Thanks Ken! 😊 The one that came with my bars is metal
great bike ive had one forever kuba lowering link works great
I'm loving it so far 😀 I've been thinking about maybe trying to lower the seat height a bit so I'll look into that thanks!
Love this bike. May be picking up the ‘84 version tomorrow. Great vid. Love the pink and blue decals on your model.
Thank you 😀 How exciting, I think you'll love the KLR!
I have the same bike! I doo have the rear foot pegs as well
That's awesome! Thanks for the info, I recently saw a pic of my bike with footpegs so I'm not sure what happened to mine 🤔
Hi, as a girl myself, 17, I have never had any motorcycle experience, I have no one to learn from about motorcycles and the mechanics of a motorcycle. I've been really interested in motorcycles lately but i don't know where to begin. Any recommendations? Thanks so much in advance!
Hello! I started by watching lots of RUclips videos on motorbike basics, like how to use a clutch, now I'm watching a lot of The Bearded Mechanic to learn more about motorbike mechanics. Motorbike people are also normally really friendly too, so if you can find a nice local group on Facebook there will be heaps of people keen to help you 😃 The biggest thing that helped me was riding a friend's small 125cc bike off road and just practice stopping and starting with no one around. Take your time with it and stay safe 😎
@@andymoto thank you so much! I’ll look into everything!
The "Barbie" version i got the same but change too some used "greenp parts" for go offroad . I store the original parts back on the bike for selling in the future. I like the KLR 250 can also "hand start"! The gearing is one of the wide ratios on an Dual Sport i drop the front sprocket one teeth down now i can doo circels with handlebar at the end points without any clutch work.One hand full circels are no problem now .
That's a great idea! I'm going to try and pick up some spare parts too 😎 I like the gearing on my bike but I'm not sure if it's been changed or if it's got the original ratios. I still need to ride it a bit more to get a better idea of the bike 😃
hay how are you goin not bad there a grate bike just not for you if it brakes down single cylinder 2 stroke would be better and careful of the clutch cable if its to tight or lose will push the heater hose against the exhaust header clutch will go and exhaust val will go to if on limiter or down shift and use engine brake will cook the top end to cams rollers cam chain. bottom end Counter balancer chain and sharft. it u hear a rattle the the right hand ride engine cover decomp will snap of and end up in the engine take thst of next time it come apart
Yes, thanks for the info! I've heard the KLRs need a bit of maintenance but I didn't really want another two stroke. I'm happy with the bike so far 😎 but only time will really tell how well she really goes
Awesome!! Yes they did have passenger pegs mounted to brackets on the sub frame. Nice bike all in all.
Hi Pete! Yes, I think so too! Thanks for the info and comment 🤗
I'm 40 now and I just got my learners licence and will be getting the 2024 rebel. Looking forward to exploring the new world of biking around Queensland
That's great! I think you'll love the rebel 😍
@@andymoto im just hoping the rebel will be good long term i keep hearing people saying its weak and they were dying to upgrade after not even a year but im not really caring about power so long as it can get up hills and mountains without struggling and it handles on the highways well. personally i realise most people just love to complain so its hard to figure out the genuine complaints and the people who will never be happy
The rebel will get you up the hills no worries at all, but you still might wanna upgrade lol! If you have an unrestricted licence you could go straight to the 1100. Apparently if you leave it in rain mode it rides like the 500 anyway 😎
@andymoto very much on a learners licence so will stick with the rebel 500 for the next 2 years once I get it
Hi. I have 2024 rebel 500. With L plate. Thank you for sharing your rebel.
Love that 😍 so cool! Ride safe 😎
I know that you are a Vic rider, I am sounding out views on how the rebel cmx500 would handle the NSW M.O.S.T test. Does the Vic Riders test differ much to NSW? Hopefully your other subscribers may be helpful. I rode round Canberra back in the 80s on a trail bike but the Sydney traffic scared the you know what out of me. Now I in my 60's I plan to get back into it. Being short legged the 500 is low enough get get my leg over. Love the videos.
Hi Mark! Thank you 😃 I think you'll love the rebel 😍 I don't know if the Vic test differs much from NSW, I don't think the practical parts would be much different and they are pretty clear about what you need to do to get licenced and you can ask questions if you need to. You could also consider travelling out of the city to do your test, I never really ride in the city or on really busy roads. Ride safe 😎
My 2021 is a matte black
The matte black is tough 😎
Awesome videos I love them, my question is how do you get the birds eye view camera angle? and info about camera gear in general even the mic.
Hey Eliza, glad you like the videos. 😀 The birds eye view is a friend riding behind me with a GoPro on his helmet. I hope to do a video soon on the camera/mic gear, but it is a Rode lavilier GO mic with a Zoom F1 audio recorder. 😀
Hi Andy just finished my latest road trip just a tad under 4000 kms. It certainly put the travel bug to rest for now. Take care, stay positive cheers Wayne
Hey Wayne, that's great. I'm hoping to do a long trip again soon. It's been awhile, but it has been good to do some short trips when I feel like it, rather than commiting to a long one. 🙂 Keep enjoying it.
Wow, girl! This was super helpful and awesome!! Thanks for sharing this! New subscriber here. =)
Heyy! Thanks and welcome! Glad it was helpful! 😃 🤗
I don't know why I laughed so much when you said "anti-clockwise." I mean, technically, I don't think that's wrong.😆 Good video, good thinking, and great reminder. I need to do maintenance a lot more often than I do because I abuse the hell out of my stuff - not just my bike, but my Jeep, my guns, everything. I run everything hard but I hate doing maintenance 😫... On the other hand, I also expect everything to last forever.
Hey Eric! I was a bit the same when it came to maintenance but now i don't mind it. Some tunes and beers can help 🤣
Yeee yeee yeee
Yeeeeeeeehhhawwwwwww
Just bought a '99 at the beginning of March. Really fun bike! The comment about TDC when starting is spot. I also put dielectric grease and ran a can of Seafoam through the system. Starts much easier now.
Thanks Brendan, I'm still getting use to the bike but it's been great! Thanks, I'll give the Seafoam a go. Keep enjoying that KLR! 😃
Pearl Smoky Gray
Great bike, I have one!
Hey! Agreed! 😃 They're such a great bike!
Great tips Andy! Love your work
Thanks, glads they were helpful! 🤗
What a brilliant idea 👌
Thankyou! 😁 I love them!
Have you got caught in the rain with them yet? Just wondering how good the rivets seal out the water 🤔 I would guess that not much water gets in through them though. If you do have an issue with the bolts letting in water, you could always cutout some rubber washers from an old bicycle tire tube or something. Looks good!
RedRider! Thanks ☺️ I actually haven't ridden in the rain with them yet but I've washed the bike a couple of times with a hose and no water has come in. Also haven't had any dust get in either 🙂
@@andymoto oh that’s awesome! 👏
Step 1: Buy a Japanese bike
Haha 😂 yeah that's probably true but I also like Harley's and Indian's and other bikes so will need to work on my maintenance and repair skills I guess 😂
@@andymoto I also like Harleys and Indians they are beautiful bikes sadly they're a little mean to the old wallet 😂
Haha I agree, that's the only reason they haven't entered my garage...yet
@@andymoto I like them but my friends Dad's Harley fat boy just blew up at 68k miles, it had regular oil changes and other maintenance it was a twin cam and apparently one of the cam bearings failed so the engine is being replaced
Ouch! That's got to sting 🥴 I have heard they tend to be pricey to maintain and fix (and that problems arise alot). I suppose at least they look pretty 😍
Don’t forget to dispose of the waste oil correctly. Recycling centres will have facilities - don’t just chuck down the nearest drain. Good information though Andy, keep it up.
Hey, thanks! Glad you liked it.😁 Yeah, I usually just take mine into a local automotive retailer, like supercheap or repco.
you need motorcycle garage house from japanese motorcycle uncle i followed instagram
Bunnings sells an oil jug with a flexible nozzle. Makes adding oil a lot easier.
Thanks! I'll check it out. I need to do a bunnings run and the KRL is due for an oil change.
Manual says every 16k km, or once a year, so I do a service once a year. Mind you where I live bikes are in winter storage for 5-6 months of the year, guessing that isn't an issue in your neck of the woods. ;)
16,000 km?! That's a long time. Interesting that they have a different service manual. Yeah, I'm lucky and don't have the problem of having to store it. Usually I can still get her out about once a week when it hits winter. 😃 My oil had been in the bike longer than recommended and still looked pretty good after 6,000km.
Is the Honda rebel supposed to get a new back tire every 12k km and new front tire every 24k? That’s what they say for the Kawasaki 400s/500s.
That's interesting. I haven't seen anything saying that for the rebel. I just keep an eye on mine and replace when it gets to the wear indicators.
Good vid, thanks. It looks chili in south Oz.
Thanks! 😁 It is starting to get cold. I'm hoping to get as many rides in as possible before it really cools off. Actually on second thoughts I'll be riding through winter 😂
So many memories flooding back about the mighty KLR250. I had a red one with a blue seat. I can’t remember the year model but I sold it with 63,000km on the clock and it still started firs,t kick. Used it as my everyday commuter and weekend fun machine. The pillion foot pegs were on brackets attached to the swingarm. Such a great bike of the many I’ve had over nearly fifty years of riding. Enjoy your KLR!
Thanks Andrew! I absolutely love it 😁 It seems very reliable, my friend can start it first kick but I'm still trying to get the hang of it😂 That's cool about the foot pegs, I might try and pick some up. I'm hoping to get her cleaned up a little more.
@@andymoto mine was a 1984 model and I believe the later ones like yours had a bracket that bolted to the frame for the pillion pegs. There was also a long range fuel tank made by Acerbis (I think), that would make it into a brilliant ADV. Wishing you all the best with your KLR. Mine was a hoot!
Ooh thanks for the information.😁 I want to do an "Info-vid" soon on the KLR. I'm loving it, such a sweet little bike!
Red Rider ⁉️
Ooh that is a cool name.😎 I tired googling it but I'm not sure what you mean.
