Where Honda Went WRONG With The New Rebel 1100T

- I just got done riding the new 2023 Honda Rebel 1100T "Touring" Bagger for the past 4 days, and I gotta be honest...I think Honda got something wrong here. The new Rebel 1100T DCT is supposed to be the upgraded, touring version of the beloved Honda Rebel 1100, but I'm not so sure that this bike lives up to its namesake. What do you think? Are you impressed with the new Rebel 1100 touring model?

If you don't like the Honda, You can Purchase a Harley for $25,000.00
Your hand movements are a bit much
I hope Honda continues to sell and refine this version of the 1100. I think there's a space in the market for a touring-oriented cruiser that's under the 800+ lbs / $20k price level of the Gold Wing, Harley and Indian offerings.
I'll never say Donald Trump overuses his hands when he talks again!
Its really discomforting watching your hands move a lot!!
The best part of the jap bikes is the Harley guys don’t talk to You lol
35 Liters is Nothing .. they must be 35 Liters each is still very small.
At 71 I'm thinking about selling my 2001 Heritage and getting something lighter. I love the looks of this Rebel and I don't mind getting off any bike every 100 miles or so for some gas or a stretch. Thanks for the review.
This bike would be a nice option with a manual. With the dct it’s a hard pass for me. One of my favorite things about motorcycling is getting to use a sequential gearbox.
Get gloves that fit
I drive manual cars but when it comes to bikes an auto one is MAGIC. thats what it needs to be auto so u can relax chill and cruise
I just viewed and sat on this motorcycle this past weekend. I haven't ridden in 14 years and have had the desire to get back into motorcycling. I had a sportbike previously but knew that I'd be stepping into a cruiser at some point in the future. I wasn't familiar with the DCT feature and the salesman gave my friend and I the summary you essentially gave in this video. I came to the same conclusion you did. DCT is a convenience feature that allows a rider to focus more on the enjoyment of the ride rather than the 'mechanics' of the ride experience. That appeals to me. Purists will probably disagree but it sounds like you can activate a 'manual' mode using buttons. I think Honda made a fair compromise and understood that this new model will not be for every rider, but many will probably enjoy it. I think it's a smart way to bring new riders into the activity by mitigating the intimidation factor of manual shifting. There's nothing wrong with that because Honda is running a business. Increasing their customer base is a positive outcome. I'm now considering the Rebel 1100. Thanks for the video.
You explained this bike’s nature perfectly! I’m seriously considering buying it. I would probably get the taller windscreen (I’m six foot one). And I don’t do lots of cross country stuff. But I love day tripping or maybe one or two nights on the road. I’m more about exploring local hideouts and backroads, than screaming down the Interstate at 90 mph. Thanks!
Practicaly could not drive clutch anymore due to nerve damage on my left hand, so the DTC brought this old man to bikes again for cheap. Thank you Honda, thank you. " some forward controls, a fairing and a couple of bags and this bike is makijng its mark. I am a change man, as i can be on the satle again.
One of the best most honest reviews of a Japanese motorcycle I’ve seen.
I really really hope they make a bigger tank, like 4 or 4.2 gal would be perfect. I wants a solid 200 miles between fill ups.
I've had my 1100T for about a week now and your review confirmed some of my suspension and your user defined settings are exactly what I was looking for. I had a 2019 Rebel and traded to a Can-Am for a couple years, then saw the 1100T and had to go back to two wheels! Excellent review and appreciate the insight. Safe ride and keep it going!
These are great videos. I have learned a lot while searching on this bike. Very informative!
The hard to close thing is probably good because it means theres a good sturdy water seal
Thank you for this honest review. This is one of the best reviews I've seen. Love your channel.
