I bought the 2023 1100T with the hard saddlebags. I LOVE IT! The engine response is awesome, it handles really well, and for me is a joy to ride. I love the DCT because it allows me to just enjoy the ride and not have to think about shifting all the time. I don't mind a clutch, but it's just one less thing to worry about. The ABS brakes are awesome and super responsive. All in all, it's a great bike.
Exactly how I feel! Thanks for watching! 🤘🏼
Just purchased this motorcycle today. It’ll be delivered by tomorrow! This vid helped a lot. Thanks
Hell ya! 🤘🏼
I just subscribed, you are really technical with your reviews and are able to explain the concepts to new riders with accuracy and concise explanations. Awesome review, please make more videos like this.
I truly appreciate that! Thank you so much! Thanks for watching my channel!
I really appreciate the detailed info on the controls and instruments. Good review.
Thanks so much! Thanks for watching!
Really great review, crazy how nobody has done a real hands on showing the bike close up like this
Thank you so much! I have a bunch of cool videos on my channel you might like. Thanks for watching!
I've had this bike since December. Cant imagine what anyone would not like about it
Simple, fast, and easy to ride. Cant go wrong 👌...oh and dont let the dealership sell you all the extra crap they try to add on! Beware of that
You’re right, it’s simply a great bike! Luckily, my dealership knows about me and my no nonsense attitude lol. But I guess that’s how they make their extra cash. Thanks for watching
Great content I just added the scl500 to the garage…looking forward to your new bike videos
I truly appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
I have a 2021 CMX1100DCT, and I love it.
I agree with everything you've said.
Hell ya! I’m addicted to the bike I swear! Thanks for watching!
Taking delivery on a Rebel DCT this Saturday. 🤙🏻👏
Oh hell ya! Congrats! You’ll love it! Thanks for watching!
Ive had this bike on the top of my list for a while now. I went and looked at one in person and love the way the bike looks.
I have arthritis bad in my left hand, so i am very interested in the DCT.
After watching many reviews, i found there are mixed opinions. Some love the bike, while others did not. Some of the negatives were fluid leaks, gas tank slightly moving at higher speeds, and the most common was the death wobble. I believe someone figured it out to be the stock tires. All in all, im still seriously considering it. Great video, very informative.
I think you’ll love this bike. I’ve heard of oil leaks on some 2022’s. But only from RUclipsrs. I tried confirming this with a Honda Mechanic and he told me he never ran into leaks with the Rebel. And I believe him. I heard the wobble happens around 90 plus, but I never plan to go that fast lol. I absolutely love this bike and I think you will too! Thanks for watching!
Oh heck yes....nice bike. I think I need to ride one today! Liked and subbed!
You definitely should ride! Go to a dealership and sit on this bike! You’ll love it in person! Thank you for watching and subscribing! 🤘🏼
I’ve got a 2021 1100 dct, love it. Just hit 1,000 miles. It is a little quirky sometimes not wanting to upshift when your hard on the throttle and downshifting a little hard when slowing down
Nice! I love it too! Yea, sport mode is great but sometimes it’s like saying to you…..”I’m not shifting, ride harder!” 😂 thanks for watching
Great review! I want one now.
Get one, do it, do it, do it! 🤘🏼
great review!
I actually just bought a Honda Navi to practice a little bit before I buy the rebel 1100 DCT. I can’t move my left foot which means I was never able to drive a manual motorcycle. I got very excited when a few months ago I discover this DCT version. I hear you about the big change from Navi to 1100 DCT but I have no other choice with automatic transmission.
I love the video. I don’t like the grey color! Agrrr I wish I could buy it in black or even mate back , still debating between grey or blue. I will buy the DCT in a month, can’t wait !!
The grey in the sunlight is really nice. It has a metallic shine to it. They make a blue color too. It’s nice but too out there for me. Blacks and grays only for me. Just be careful the 1100 is no joke. Thanks for watching 🤘🏼
Very interesting video, Honda don´t sell the Navi here in Germany, but they do sell the Monkey, one of which I have and I love it more than anything else, so as you can see, I understand why you love the Mini Moto scene.
I took delivery of my Rebel 1100 T yesterday, I am still getting used to the DCT, but I think one day in the near future we should be working quite well together.
Look forward to see how you get on with the Rebel, have fun and ride safe.
That’s awesome! Are there a lot of mini motos in Germany? I love my Rebel. I’m addicted to it! Thanks for watching!
I pick mine 2021dct next monday. Just 36 hours of patience.....❤
I just picked up a ‘23 yesterday. You’re gonna love it 🙌🏼
Hell ya! You’ll be addicted! Thanks for watching!
I added the Grip Puppies foam overgrips for a better feel on my Rebel 1100. I also immediately replaced the wimpy OEM horn with a Denali Sound Bomb Mini for $30... it's a huge difference for sound and safety.
You'll love the looks and sound of a good aftermarket exhaust like the Coffman's Shorty or Thunder. It makes it bark a little louder but not obnoxiously loud... and the decel blips sound amazing! Cheers, and congrats on your new Rebel DCT! 👊😉👍 --QM
Thank you so much Quasi! I need that horn and exhaust! You rock Quasi! 🤘🏼
can you get all; ralley sets to give you more leg room ? 2-3" higher is plenty low and more leg room even with forward pegs. Now add ne passenger pegs; more forward with a new decent seat
Nice review.
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching
Great video! Keep them coming!
Thank you so much
Nice calm video.
Glad you enjoyed it
I bought a 1100 DCT for my first bike. I heard way too many people say they started lower and upgraded within months and I didn’t want to do that. My boyfriend has a Navi and i personally feel like that prepped me for my bike. Definitely heavier, obviously but the way the mechanics work are similar.
I agree with you! Go straight to the 1100 as long as you have riding experience (which you do) you would have regretted a 300 or 500. The 1100 is so much fun. Ride safe! Thanks for watching and commenting! 🤘🏼
Thanks for the video! I bought the 2023 rebel 1100. I'm having some extras installed, so I don't have it yet. So I've been watching a ton of videos that get me excited for now. On a different note, I noticed the Live, and let live tattoo, are you a friend of Bill W?
Not sure who bill w is? It says “live & leave”. Yes, I have a ton of goodies to go on the Rebel as soon as it warms up…videos to come with that! Thanks for watching! Plenty of Rebel 1100 content coming 🤘🏼
Also wanted to mention the Honda Rebel I had. Had a helmet lock hook under the seat it looks like two clips there’s one on both sides under the seat.
Oh yea! Sweet! Thanks for watching!
I test rode a Rebel T and was impressed with the DCT...BUT it was uncomfortable and cramped. I'm 6ft & 185 and I felt like I was on a kids bicycle... probably cost another 2K to replace seat , different windscreen, headlight & driving lights( i read complaints for headlight) and foot pegs. I think the NT100 would have been a better choice for the US market.
Yea you’re at that height where it can make the bike not fun to ride. For me it’s absolutely perfect. Thanks for commenting and watching!
Super cool 👍👍👍
I appreciate you! Thanks for watching!
Nice video I got my rebel last week it's awesome it's the same color as yours I already put a Coffmans exhaust and a black widow headers cat delete. it made it sound much better
Nice!!! The bike is so addicting! Any exhaust is better than the stock. I love my V&H, it looks like a cannon 🤘🏼
Since I am in Illinois, what dealership do you recommend? Does the DCT transmission only come in the 1100? Thanks.
The Honda dealership in Aurora is probably one of the best. Not the fanciest of Honda Dealerships but their knowledge and stock is amazing! Thanks for watching!
Did you find the riding position cramped or is it ok. I am 6’ tall and not sure if it would be ok for weekend tours.
No not cramped. I’m 5’8” and can easily flat foot it. I think anyone a little bit taller than you might find the riding position awkward. Go sit on one at a Honda dealership. I’d love to hear what you think. Thanks for watching.
Can you change the display mode to metric system? I mean kilometers instead of miles and celsius instead of farenheit?
Good question lol I don’t think so. Just the bikes in Europe. Thanks for watching 🤘🏼
QUESTION! I drive a car that has the same type of dual clutch engine that i can swap to manual or automatic on the fly. Can you put this bike in neutral MID RIDE then swap it back to drive and it picks up right in the gear it left off in? My car works that way. Not that I plan on just throwing the bike into N while im going 50-70 MPH, but curious to know what would happen if somehow you hit the N button mid ride at higher speeds and then throw it back into drive.
Other than that, i watched this video 100 times. MY NEW 2024 1100 DCT IS ARRIVING TODAY! Been watching this video over and over to get comfortable with where the controls are and how they look. This will be my first bike I purchased on my own. Ive said this on a few videos of yours but, love the videos and thank you for making them. Its helped me out a lot and took a way a bunch of anxiety and nerves being this was my first bike on my own. Gained a subscriber for life!
Hey brotha! Thanks so much for being a part of the channel! 🤘🏼. So, there really isn’t a Neutral. I can tell you this….if you’re in “sport” mode and the bike is moving you can NOT throw it into another mode. You have to be at a complete stop to throw it in “standard” or “rain” mode. You’ll love this bike, welcome to your new addiction 😜🤘🏼💪🏻
Yeah brother bad ass.
Thanks homie!
I traded in my Navi and used that money as a down payment for the Rebel 1100 touring edition in black. My only con is the ugly exhaust. I just ordered a Vance and Hines. I emailed Cheeky Seats and they said if you send them the seat they can make a seat cover for it. Stay safe.
You made some nice upgrade moves! Let me know how the V&H sounds! Thanks for watching!
I'm just on the fence about the DCT. I mean 1K price difference is a big deal., and I already know how to ride a manual. What do you think about reselling it? DCT more desirable?
I think it’s personal preference. It’s not about not knowing how to ride manual. It’s just about me getting on and enjoying the automatic transmission. If you’re on the fence, I would say do not get the DCT. I love it tho. Thanks for watching.
where is the battery; not under the seat ? has an aux switched plug for front lights ?
Battery is under seat. Easy to get to. There is a usb-c outlet under seat. I ran a cable from it to my Quadlock handlebar phone mount charger/holder. Thanks for watching!
first thanks for good reviews second Structure welding finishing its not prefect and there is no temp engine in board others the bike its amazing .
Thanks for watching! 🤘🏼
As a beginner with my only riding experience being a mst course.. Do you think it would be unwise to get this bike and grow into it with the lower powered modes (rain for a couple months, then to standard). I need a DCT due to physical reasons and don’t want to get a lower CC bike, only to want an upgrade shortly after. What’s your honest opinion?
Yes, I think it would be suitable to get this and keep it in rain mode. Wear some safety gear and maybe practice a lot in huge abandoned parking lots or quiet country roads. You’ll be fine. Just have confidence and watch those cars! Thanks for watching
2 months ago I bought a Harley Heritage with 1960cc engine (114ci). It weighs 720 lb.
After 75 mph, vibration from the engine becomes uncomfortable.
Every time coming back home to New York City from my trips, I hit the traffic on Hudson River crossings, finding neutral on Harleys is not easy task, overheated Air Cooled huge engine sends heat waves in your face while sitting in traffic, gas tank is so whide, you basically have to sit in a split position all the time and legs get real tired, and you have to go through all that while frantically trying to find that elusive neutral position so you can give your clutch hand a brake...
After 2 months of all this, now looking for the Honda DCT transmission... heavy Harleys are not suitable for tight City traffic...
Yes I totally agree. Overweight and overpriced bikes…Harley’s. Bikes are supposed to be pure enjoyment. Not a task lol. You’ll never go wrong with a Honda and you’ll love the DCT. Thanks for watching! 🤘🏼
How much was the out the door price ? I live in chicago also, just wondering what dealer you use ?
Lows 12’s. Fox Valley Motorsports in Aurora.
Im buying one this weekend what upgrade do you recommend for exhaust
100% Vance & Hines! Check out my new video on it! 🤘🏼
Question........If you put the E-brake on while your on a hill and go into a store, could someone walk by your bike and hit that button to release the brakes, and then your bike go rolling away?
Technically, yes. But I always lock the front forks too. Thanks for commenting and watching! 🤘🏼
Rebel ❤
A lot of machine for the money , great bike 👍🏼
It’s pretty damn awesome! Built so well! Thanks for watching!
❤🔥🔥
♥️
Can this Rebel 1100 handle highway speed of 70+ mph with no problems?
Yes sir! No issues. When you get 95+ it gets a little sketchy I’ve heard. But I have not got it that fast yet. Thanks for watching!
Does DCT have a longer lifespan than Manuel?
It’s too hard to say just yet. The Rebel 1100 debut was 2021. Both use the famous and amazing engine…the Africa Twin. You can’t go wrong with either bike.
Nice and clean look in the gray need a new helmet to match
I have a black one and a red one. Im thinking carbon fiber for this Rebel 😎
It's time Honda remake this Rebel. It's too cramped for longer riders. Making it a bit longer will make sells go up definitely
I could agree with that. Maybe make 2 different versions. For me, it’s perfect though. Thanks for watching!
rebel 500 is geared way too low
