After My Last SCL500 Video, It's Clear What Has To Happen...

- After reading through all the comments from my last SCL500 video, it's really no secret what needs to happen now...it HAS to go.
The number plate that is! I don't agree with the decision, but since enough of you said the same thing, it's time to find a solution. So I came up with 3 new ideas for the CL500 now that we have all this extra space from swapping out the stock exhaust- new black numberplates, dual ammo can saddle bags, and a sleek "daily" bag from Torque Motorcycle Co!
Oh yea...and we also switched from the OEM front fender to a smaller front fender to match well with the rear fender delete! And the craziest part is that the new shorter front fender is actually a "secret" OEM Honda part!
Leave a comment and let me know what you think of the new options, and check out the links below to do these upgrades to your own SCL500!

Saddle bags win. Bury the number plates. Utility wins
The number plates did look out of place.
It's your bike don't worry about what anyone thinks about it. Now, what I think is number plates are for track bikes cut the brackets off for the street. I'm 72, ride a Ninja 400 and also owned a Miata not too long ago.
The torque bag was official tissue
I think I agree with the handlebar bag being the best, but the ammo cans and white number plates are cool too.
Option 4 is my preference. Adds a little utility and is the cleanest overall.
I love the soft bag look.
4,2,3,1 new front cover looks great
Comment featured and you even took my idea! Glad you did, looks alot better! Now put orange numbers on the ammo cans for the best of all worlds.
Handlebar bag and ammo saddle bags look dope!
I liked the white number plate. The orange looks even better. Maybe black oval with the orange numbers?
Finally someone who sees the vision with the white number plates! 😂 I may try a black oval plate to see how it compares as a mix between the two options 🤔
I think the plate itself is fine, it's just way too big and stood out
definitely the saddle bags!! looks awesome
Tbh I really liked the look with the white number plates. Looks really classic and fun to me.
I am a fan of smaller codura bags...maybe in black, you could also put a number on the cans.
Great video Burch !!! 🤙🏽
Torque handle bar bag for sure!!! It's sleek and clean, fits the look of the bike well.
Brah! As a famous Australian Old El Paso ad once said…”Why not both?” Paniers + black/orange Numberplate 👌
I felt the same way, but I didn’t expect there to be such a big outcry. It’s ultimately your bike man, I’m here for you (and yeah for the bikes too), mainly for your personality.
It's your bike, do whatever you like. Why would you let strangers dictate what you do?
Because this is a RUclips channel where I show said strangers different options for their own bikes. Obviously I’m gonna whatever tf I want 😂
The old 23 plate looked good!
@@jam0287 a man of class!! 🙌🏻🙏🏻
He’s a RUclipsr, 🤡
Says, “I’m gonna do whatever I want” then shows all the comments (which he disagrees with it) and lets them dictate the change of the number plate lol Agree with @storm3016. It’s your bike, if you like the white round plate. Keep that one 👍🏼Storms and my comment are not negative. Please don’t see them that way. I get you need content to put out videos & that’s what you’re doing. Keep them coming. I enjoy watching them and hope to get a rebel of my own soon. Maybe make a video comparing this bike & the rebel for a beginner rider
I think it looks great the way it is, with the number plates.
Ammo cans look real good and come in handy but I like the handle bag option better! Looks a lot cleaner and I also like how it’s only on one side. Ride safe 🤙
I like the ammo can bags, defiantly the way to go, functional and useful not just ascetics.
PS im in Illinois. Would love to join you & nina on the navi for group runs. You have some pretty kool bike trials by you. Im trying to find some by me. Thank you again for all the info and persuading me into my navi purchase. Im so excited :-)
5:44 I like the ammo cans, I put the metal green ammo can on mine. You can see it in my walk around video. 7:42 I like that handlebar bag too.
P.S. Always give you credit in my SCL500 videos.
The ammo boxes on though ... 🔥
I want those orange numbers on Ammo Box. They'll look fookin dope.
The new number plate looks great 👍🏽 the white goes great on a TRIUMPH BIKE
I like the white number plates and the last soft bag!
The black n orange looks ok.
The single torque bag looks the best if thats enough storage for you go for that. Next would be the double ammo boxes.
Thanks. 😊 I’m a woman of class! This is Jessica from your first group ride on the Rebel 300.
I always knew you were a woman of class!! Am I gonna see you next Saturday at the meetup?!
@@LifeOfBurch😢One of these days I will return to your meet-up. I have a commitment with motorcycle club. What’s the link/info (if my plans fall through)?
I really like the ammo cans. Really clean setup.
Since you asked for opinions, personally I think ammo cans look amazing. Slap some orange 23 stickers or your orange logo onto the sides of them for the best of both worlds! But it's your bike my guy, do whatever the hell you like.🤙
Ammo can saddle bags are fucking gold. That looks so good dude, it makes it look like those old military diesels! Absolute win in my opinion.
The softshell bag you added looks like the one on my mountain bike.
Number plates look great. Stick with what you like.
Get some vinyl stickers with the numbers in the matching orange for the bike to stick on the saddlebags. Best of both worlds.
I liked the number plates!
white for sure 👍 and round
if you scale to 80% and give numbers more negative space you’ll be good 😊
Keep what u like.
Me, an MT09 owner with no intention of purchasing an SCL500 - “ah yes, it is certainly the torque bag for me”
Me, a SCL500 owner also in Maryland - "ah yes, there goes my paycheck as I copy all of these modifications"
Burch, in MHO you should frisbie those white plates at the dump. I do like the orange number plates and the L o Burch stickers. You inspired me to buy a Rebel 500 and it is the best choice. Good luck my dude.
For a minute there I thought you were going to give us another option…ammo cans with black square number plates…lol.
Black orange and oval would suit the curves of the bike better or scale it down in size.
Option 4 is perfect!!!
Keep it as is...I like the smaller front fender and the one sided fabric bag.....next choice would be the ammo cans.....3rd choice the oval plate, 4th square plate. (Sorry you had to sell the MX-5 but the time was right to sell at top dollar with the nice weather here now.)
I like the oval and I think it would look even better in black, I agree that it's the different shades of orange that are throwing it off a bit. That being said the little difference in the orange still compliments the bike and doesn't look bad at all.
I love the Wonder Years hoodie.
single nylon bag is the winner for me
The black number plates definitely look the best
if it was me I would do handlebar bags on both sides. however they all look pretty cool.
If you want to do the ammo can look I would just go get a couple steel GI styles ones, those are dirt cheap and bomb proof and I'd be worried about those plastic ones sitting in the UV rays and getting all that vibration. That said I think old school brown leather saddle bags would look cooler.
I like it, pulls the scrambler look together. I would go for storage otherwise.
Yeah just cut that bracket off put nothing there it looks good naked
Yeeaaa cutting the frame of a bike that’s still under warranty isn’t in my cards lmao especially on the off chance I ever want to run a high mount exhaust again. You do you though!
"I want to sell out my funeral" like a full house or a sponsored funeral lol 😂
I think the ammo panniers with brake and or indicator lights would look great on it. You could even stick the orange numbers on them if you wanted. I would have waited until the front tyre had to be changed and gotten them done at the tyre shop at the same time.
I agree with the Torque bad being the most sleek, and would probably use that daily as you said. However the saddle bags are awesome, and if I had to choose just one I would definitely go for those. If they didnt have to stick out so far they'd be the no brainer only choice for me, but ya gotta avoid those shocks. I think the original number plates could have worked (for my tastes) if they were like .5-.6x the size of what you went with - i know you said you wanted them large though.
You can always throw number decals on the ammo cans! My vote is 100% ammo cans. Function over fashion baby!
I like the water proof boxes the most, bag next, either plate is fine but i do like utility more.
I think an orange oval plate with black text would be best for plates.
That Torque bag is the move
The ammo cans were cool
I like both number plates bit would probably use the small bag for most days.
Yeeeaaaah! Starting it off right with the number plate in focus!!
... oh, wait, bummer.
Womp womp woommppp 🥲😂
I like the number plate!
What if you put numbers on the saddle bags? Looks great dude!
Ammo cans rule
Love this bike, I want one ☝️
I like the idea of the number plates, my style issue is they didn't follow the body lines, and stood physically out from the frame
I would say the saddlebags look the best, but I can see where you were going with the number plates and I would be quite interested to see what a smaller size, round or oval, number plate mounted directly to the exhaust bracket would look like (if it's even possible to mount it there in some way).
I'm a big fan of utility and having enough storage on your bike for every situation so i would probably go with both ammo cans or at least the Torque bag for something more discreet.
The number plate is fine so long as you make it orange to match the tank. Black numbers ... orange background. Oval is better than rectangle. But personally I would put the ammo cases on because I always need to keep a jacket and some other stuff with me in case the weather turns colder unexpectedly.
Hmm orange plates seem like it would be too much orange…maybe I’ll photoshop it to see 🤔😂
Bro can't get the number plate 100% right with all the community.
That phrase "you can't please everyone, so make sure you like it first" rings so true on this topic.
The new number plate looks like jus straight up Halloween theme, last number plate some people didn't like because it wasn't uniform, new number plate introduced a new variable with the rectangle design,
Black numbers on orange wouldn't look as jack-o-lantern I think, but I dunno man, all I knew is the amount of effort Burch has now put into finding the perfect number plate is applaudable and commendable, broski really out here now trying stuff in photoshop. Goes to a not insignificant amount of effort to please as much if not all his community he can.
At the end of the day, here's hoping he goes withever he likes, but it's still a funny predictament.
I love the white number plates
It’d be super easy to weld up plates to make the ammo cans solid.
Yeah I like the saddle bags
Love the number plates. But saddlebags better for practicality.
im sold on the ammo cans, with that exhaust. looooks soooo fat and usable! id love to have one. i think two of the torque bags would look even better tho
Torque handle bar bag is the best option
Orange number and the handlebar bag ones looked best. Maybe oval black with orange would be the best compromise.
Also, any information on shocks for this bike with reservoirs I think they would look a lot better filling out the bike haven’t been able to find them. Have you seen any?
ok, IF it were MY bike, I think I like the dual bag ammo box look. BUT I would hollow out a tube shape, like epoxy in a half tube into the box, to fit around the shocks, (like a transmission tunnel in a car) allowing the boxes to be mounted much closer. THEN YOU could make a smaller version of the black and orange number plate to add to the boxes, displaying your Lucky number and channel. BUT most importantly, it's YOUR bike, do YOU bro!
That would be rad if the ammo boxes were bigger, otherwise it’d kinda render them useless with even less space and a weird shape. Would be sick to see a company develop bigger bags in that style though!
@@LifeOfBurch yea but the bug is in your head now. lol
dude, leave the number plates on, that's your signature Burch. Just black and orange them. Yeah, that black and orange is a vibe. Try some Black and Orange ovals.
no you got to keep the plate that's sweet
Honestly I was a fan of the white number plate but my first choice now would be ammo can saddlebags. Although, that might be a biased opinion because I put ammo cans on my bike.
Did the tool set come in by chance also? Amazon said it was delivered same day as the chair thing.
ammo-cans-saddlebags are the best
Haha the bracket looks way better than those terrible number plates 🤣
I vote cutoff wheel, file edges smooth, black spray paint and call the back dome.
I like the Torque bags, because they sit closer to the frame. If you could figure out how to mount the ammo cans closer, they'd look better and have more capacity.
If you really want the number plates, I would not only match the orange closely to the paint, but also invert the colors on the number plate - orange background with black number.
I like the orange/black color combo better, but prefer the circular shape.
Bags look good
Thanks dude! 🤘🏻
Burch still working on my bike what if you just cut the bracket off I’m thinking of doing that that way if you ever want to put the stock back on you could just weld it back on. Let’s just get rid of the bracket also I’m thinking of cutting the brackets off that, supported the reflectors on the front end what do you think?
Ammo cans look great! Put your sticker on them.
Sad to see the Miata go.
Torque bag is the winner, for sure.
Black round number plates with orange numbers would have been fine, silly that you made them square
Hey birch. Thanx to u and only u, im getting a navi. Ur videos convinced me to get my L license and watch a bunch of vidz. Ur upgrades and the exhaust upgrades of a few others u mentioned convinced me. Just got my L last week, and found 3 dealers less than an hr away with the red navi 2023.. so next week im going to get mine brand new off the honda dealer. PS i have commented before but you didn't answer. Please help. This is my first bike aka mini moto. But would love to get mine up to 56mph eventually. And also would like your advice for what to get next for an L class. I love all your videos and bikes. Keep the content coming. It'd b nice if u got commission off my navi purchase next week.
First of, It is your bike, so you should be the one making decisions and everyone else should repect that. The white plates started growing on me tbh.
My preference would probably be - oval shape, black background and orange numbers.
can you try putting passenger foot pegs with this coffman exhaust?
I like the ammo cans, but you should go full Maryland and wrap em to look like Old Bay.
Any chance of putting the black # plates on over the ammo cases?
Seems like $100 is a little much to get a 4" shorter fender, think I'd be happy with the original. Oh, and the bag is the way to go.✌
i want a honda rebel 300 as my first bike, but i weigh about 300 pounds, will that be an issue? i could always go with the 500
Also... Sunday Funday, gotta love when Chaos Causes and LifeOfBurch upload on the same day (and maybe Spite again? I don't follow closely enough to know).
Forget intersection takeovers, we gotta get more motovloggers on Sunday to do a whole ass day takeover.
Sunday takeover let’s gooo!! 🙌🏻🤘🏻
I liked the white plates more than the black plates. But the single small bag I think suits the personality of the bike the best. Urban scrambler run about.
i wonder what numbers on the side of the ammo cans would look like.
the single bar bag is better tho,
I be the one who ruins it. The OG White Number wins. Rectangle Number feels odd. The ammo can sits out too far and seems too tiny for the bike. Daily bag looks fine but OCD ruins it it has to be on both sides.
I'm sad to see the Miata go. I've always wanted one and haven't been able to get one yet.
