I just watched this again 6 months later. The Rebel and the whole riding community owe you a debt of gratitude, brother. You have me and so many others with your wisdom and examples.
I'm sure I speak for many when I say Thank You!
Hi Eric!! Always a pleasure to hear from you brother!! THANK YOU so much for your words of encouragement Eric, i sincerely appreciate your support!! Thank you!
This is probably the BEST review I have ever seen of a motorbike - Thankyou!
Thank you Ted, I appreciate your kind words sir! 🙏
I wish everyone did this good of a job on reviews. Awesome details. You covered more topics in 40 minutes than others would in 2-3 hours. No rambling or stammering. Good video editing. Thank you, thank you!!! There’s a few other bikes higher on my wish list but this is a great take. I’m also 5’7” so your comments are really hitting home.
Hi D L! great to hear from you brother! Thank you very much for your encouragement, it motivates me to be better, thank you!
I'm currently on my way back home from a 5 day trip, during the trip i repeatedly thought to myself how happy i am with the ease of handling the bike due to the slow seat height and ease of operation, here's a fresh example: i took a ferry and i remember feeling a bit anxious about maneuvering onboard on a slippery surface, then the felt relief when i realized that i can flat foot the bike - i can't tell you how many times i've dropped bikes from the late 80s till now. Each time i go on a multi day trip i fall in love with the bike all over again, i wish you have the ability to test ride one out before you make a decision. If you have any questions that i didn't cover in the video please reach out and i'll be happy to answer your questions brother!
@@ontherebel11 is the bat wing the oem one?
@@PeskyWabbit. yes it is, the 2023 touring model came with a different batwing, it is a little larger.
Agree with D L 👍🏼 Outstanding and highly valuable for people like me considering one of these 👍🏼🙏🏼
Thank you Jose, I sincerely appreciate your feedback sir! 🤙
Hands down, one of the most comprehensive motorcycle reviews I’ve ever seen. I wish he was able to review bunch of different bikes in the same way but I understand that these kinds of reviews take time and a personal passion for the specific bike you’re reviewing but a guy can dream can’t he??
Thank you very much for your kind words Clark! You are too kind brother! 🙏
Agreed, I've never seen such an in depth and thorough review on a bike.
Congratulations and thank you so much for the most useful, comprehensive and perfect review I've ever seen. Please keep reviewing the Rebel! Ciao from Italy!🤟🏻🇮🇹🇺🇲

Fantastic, complete, honest review. Thank You so much for your work putting this together. I'll be getting one of these to park beside my Versys 650 so I can pick a mood for riding. Best review on this Rebel 1100 on RUclips
Thank you William, I sincerely appreciate it brother!
Great review. I have a DCT Wing bagger and though I hated the DCT at first I've come to love it. It took about a year to explore and appreciate all that you can do with it much of which you covered. Thank you.
Thank you George! I really appreciate it! 🙏 I've definitely grown to love the DCT!
Really excellent review. Well done.
Thank you Graham! 🙏
Thanks for this review. Actually indecisive about the H-D Nightster and the rebel 1100t DCT.
Hi Christian! That's a tough one brother. Just be honest with yourself about what you want, let it be an emotional decision so that you don't regret getting something that might be better on paper but your heart is somewhere else. Compare what turns you off between the two rather than what you like about them. If you are able to overlook brand loyalty, the decision will come to you, sleep on it.
Fabulous, thorough review.
Thank you Norm! 🙏
Perfect review from start to finish well done my friend , subbed and liked .
Thank you very much, I sincerely appreciate your kind feedback! 🙏

Thank you so much for this video. 👍
I'm glad you found it helpful! 👍 Thank you for your feedback!
Great review.
Thank you Staylo! 🙏
great overview! this just reinforces my desire to get one. I love that the DCT gives you the choice to relax and look around or ride harder when you want to and just switch back and forth at will. I can't wait until I can responsibly purchase this bike. thanks for the video!
Thank you ksspang! You and I are on the same page! 🤙

great info! didnt waste my time watching! learned something! well done sir!!!
Thank you Keith! 👍
I've been in the market for a bike for sometime and the Honda Rebel has been on my radar for a while. Thank you for such a great review which has helped me decide. The Rebel 1100 DCT is going into the garage this spring, thanks for helping me make this very important decision.
Hi Calvin! Thank you for sharing that, you just made my day brother! I'm very excited for you, you will love the way the bike rides! Just be patient with the making the bike comfortable for your dimensions, that's the one thing that most people struggle with in the beginning. Would love to hear your feedback once you get the bike, it's fun to relive those memories through new owners! please reach brother!
Banger video as always Gus! Glad I got to partake in some of those miles/rides with you. I'm loving my Rebel 1100 everyday. I really want the new windscreen and hard bags from the touring model!
Hi Link! So good to hear from you brother! Yes, riding together is so much fun! We gotta sort out a long tour! I'm actually itching to go on a trip 🤣🤣 it's been too long!
@@ontherebel11 Let me know if you're down Florida way brother! I'm in North Florida to be specific.
great video on the 1100,,many thanks.
Thank you for your kind feedback, I sincerely appreciate it! 🤙
I just bought it and dude, you channel is a gold mine.
Congratulations! You will love it more each time you ride! Thank you for stopping by 🤙
Great video man!
Thank you sir! 🙏
Great video, Very informative…Nice job
Thank you Wally! 🙏
That seems like a lot of problems. Thank you for being so in depth.
Hi Brian, keep in mind that these issues have been gathered from owners all around the world over a 2.5 year period, in my experience they are minor and insignificant, but i respect that others may find them as a deterrent to owning the rebel, hence i wanted to keep the review as honest as possible for potential owners to make an educated decision before committing. Thank you for your feedback brother!
Great review Merry Christmas 🎄
Thank you Darren! Much appreciated brother! Merry Christmas to you and your family! 🎄
Very awesome video liked everything on it very informative.
Thank you Rafael! 👍 I appreciate your feedback brother!
very good review, thank you, !!
Thank you Bogdan! 🙏
This review is outstanding....head and shoulders above others.
I am grateful for your kind words sir! Thank you!!!!
I owned an 1100 dct when 🎉hey first came out. Your video is the best and most informative one ever published. Ive created several and watched many over the past few years. Great job, and thanks!
Hi Jeff! It's so cool of you to stop by brother! I'm a fan!
I really appreciate your support and encouragement brother, it means so much coming from you! Much respect 🙏
Nice video. Was looking at a Rebel 1100 and saw this. 👍
Thank you P3iSwe! Let me know if you have any questions that were not covered 🤙
Thanks for the lovely video. Especially the problems. I also have a rebel 1100 dct and sometimes it shut down at slow speeds. My fix was to go to the dealership and they did a recalibration/firmware update. Haven't got problems with it anymore. I also love the dct like you do. Combined with the different rider modes you can really set a riding style that fits your current mood.
Hi Caithlyn! Thank you for sharing that valuable information, i wish i had know about that i would have mentioned it in the video! This will help so many people, thank you for sharing so that others may benefit!! Happy new year!!!!
مقطع ممتع شاكرلك على الشرح بارك الله فيك وفي علمك
Thank very very much for your kind words! 👍 Shoukran!
Thank you bro❤

*FANTASTIC* VDO 👌
Happy New Year🥂🎉 to you and your beloved family, mate
Thank you Eric!!! Happy new year to you and yours buddy!!!
Thank you
I'm happy to hear that you found it helpful, than you for your feedback!🙏
great video very informative,maybe getting one soon learnt alot,think i will subscribe to your channel
Thank you! I'm happy to hear that it was helpful! Feel free to ask any questions, it's not easy to cover everything in 1 video. 🙏
Excellent video, guidance and explanation clear and to the point with clear demonstrations. Just hope other people cosidering making an instructional/guidance video follow your wonderful example. Opinions about your choices are all just that.......opinions..........!!!!!! You clearly made your judgements on sound, analytical experience and are therefore correct for you. Safe enjoyable riding.......
Andy! Thank you very much for your kind words Sir, i am humbled! Thank you!
Im in love with this bike, youre doing a bang up job with your videos. You got a fan here buddy. From Kentucky 👍
Thank you you for your kind words and support, it makes it all worth it!!!
Excellent video, Gus. It is absolutely amazing how my observations are EXACTLY the same as yours. I have the same identical bike as you do. I have found the same issues as you have, and your workarounds are spot on. I also appreciate all the work you put into this video showing the different things you talked about.
I have made a few adjustments to improve my comfort, (Corbin Gun Slinger seat and Burly Brand Mini Ape handlebars).
I think the most significant improvement which came from your suggestion is the Cruisetec Tires. They have completely changed the handling and comfort of the bike. I cannot thank you enough for that suggestion.
I have a little over 14,000 miles on my bike and ride it almost daily down here in Florida. Honda makes a great product and I think the only bike I would trade this one for would be the Gold Wing. (I have to wait until my financial manager (wife) approves it though.) haha
Thank you again. You have allowed me to get more out of my bike and optimize its enjoyability.
Peace, brother. Eric
Eric! Brother it's so good to hear from you! I sincerely appreciate your kindness and friendship! I am in the same boat as well, if i had the space and resources i would have a goldwing!!!!
This has to be the best rebel 1100 review on RUclips. I’ve been doing a lot of research as I’ve spent 3 years on my mt-03 and want to upgrade, this video helped a lot. Thank you!
Hi Nino, I'm so happy to hear that you found it helpful! Thank you for your kind feedback! 🙏
I have been the owner of a Rebel 1100T_DCT since June of this year. I have watched many driving review videos over the past 2 months and yours is the most detailed explanation. Thank you.
Thank you very much sir, i really appreciate your kind comment! Congratulations on your rebel 1100, it is an amazing bike!
As always, great detailed and explained video. I just hit 4K miles on my 2022 Rebel1100 and your videos always give me more usable knowledge. Thanks!
Hi Simon! Thank you brother! 🙏 Congratulations on hitting 4k! As it's pretty obvious, I love the bike more now than when I was at 4k! Who would've thought?! My dumbass thought i was settling on the rebel.... I'm proud of myself for keeping an open mind 🤣 (former sportbike rider)
Great review Gustav, as a fellow 1100 DCT owner can only fully endorse your comments on use of the DCT, if you want to go for it in the curves use manual, DCT for a chilled ride or coping with traffic congestion. I'm now 67, been riding since 17, but for me now this bike offers more than enough performance, looks great, handles really well and so far ultra reliable. Only thing I disagree on, forward controls. I went for the De Pretto Moto set and with arthritic hips, a game changer, tried highway pegs on crash bars but didn't work for me but that is personal ergonomics.
Thank you Derek! 🙏 I had the opportunity to ride a friend's rebel with forward controls, I think I have issues because I have short legs.... Regarding the hip, surprisingly the Corbin seat helped since it raised me up a little!
