enjoyed the vide... including your delivery... it gets old hearing people talk all jacked up all the time... just chill and talk... like you did... thanks again! I'm getting a rebel 250 and looking forward to cheap effective mods like you provided... keeping total expenses under $500
Just an FYI..... Indian Scout bars are a direct swap on the Rebel. I've built several Rebels and use nothing but Scout bars. I have one I'm building now that I have 10" miniapes on, I work for an Indian dealership and get used parts for free.
These are the mods I fine people doing commonly Sprocket mods changing the 33 tooth back to a 30 and the front 14tooth to a 15 tooth people say it help the rebel get more gas mileage and makes the ride smoother and allows it to go up to 75 but it takes a minute because the acceleration is slowed. most people will just change the back sprocket just because the front one turning into a 15t can cause clearance issues at times with thick chains or something like that I haven't done the front sprocket mod. people also suggest not changing both at the same time just so you can get use to the riding. Getting a 3.4 tank is a common mod they cost about $150 but let you drive further. Turn signals are also another mod people do and they will get a bracket to mount the turn signals further back, on the license plate. Head light I haven't done this but since the Honda rebel is a small high rpm bike it vibrates at 55-60 and can make a weird noise and a lot of times it is the headlight. so this is often changed but I can't say anymore as I haven't done it and never had issues with this noise. On the supper simple side: Since I use mine as my main vehicle I have replaced the covers that cover the blinkers with clear ones and installed what's called a switch back lights (blinker switches from amber to white instead of on and off). and instead of installing a brake light modulator I installed a strobing brake light which strobes for 3 seconds and then hold when braking magnetic dipstick since the rebel has no oil filter. $30 inline fuel filter I bought a reusable one for $10 on ebay helps keep carb clean and improves lasting fuel efficiency.
im gonna get white wall tires (thin front tire and a fat back one) i'll also get a bigboar kit to make it a 300+ cc probably a tan seat, move my mirrors upside down and get some ape handle bars
i've had over 8 bikes and I'll say the rebel is a great reliable bike thats only con is a lack of speed, what somewhat remedied this for me was changing the rear sprocket to 31 tooth, allowed me to JUST BARELY go on the interstate at 70 ish miles an hour ... somewhat comfortably , drove 10 hours from nc to florida once after changing the rear sprocket like mentioned. great bike overall
i have built several Rebels but I use mostly Indian Scout handle bars, They are both 1" bars and I'm a tech an Indian deaership and get them free and that's one of the first mods people do. The one I'm building now is getting 10" Mini Apes that are brand new almost brand, a customer bought a used scout that had the upgrade done and wanted 12" instead.
Another good place for a cellphone when you're on a motorcycle... In a zippered pocket, turned off... cause you're riding.. and not playing with distractions.
Because people on their Honda Rebel don't have a bluetooth headset or do any long distance riding or anything like that where they would need a charger eventually.
Can you add a video explaining which handle bar you actually got for your rebel 250 , I have a 1985 rebel and I would like to switch it to the clubman bars like that but is there a video that explains how to change the bars ?
Air filter intake makes no difference whatsoever. The intake is so large, that even at top speed it lets in more air than the engine can take, regardless of exhaust.
That is one of the most correct statements I have read about Reb mods. All I did was re-jetted (with a whole kit of carb mods from 6 Sigma Racing on ebay) and get 70-75mph with loads more acceleration. I will soon however remove both front and rear baffles to match the increased fuel flow. If you take the stock air filter with your hand over one end and blow through the other, you will find NO resistance!!!!!! Next is to change sprockets to gain more top end for this extra power, then maybe put 12" mini ape-hangers on ('99 model). Oh, and a sissy bar.
@@willochillo8448 how's it going for you? I had a 2017 Rebel 250, and went with a +1 on the front (15t I believe), and a 32 to 34 on the back. Loved how it felt like a big bike, and hit well past 90mph on the internal speedo (speedo maxed out at around 80mph, lol).
If your still looking for a carburetor try Jack's rebel warehouse in Florida just Google it he has everything for rebels original Honda parts good luck
No the bars are too thick. Rebels take 1" bars. Indian Bars are a direct swap though because they are both 1" thick. I have built several Rebels and all I use is Scout bars, I work at a indain dealership and get them for free though because we keep parts we take off.
Throw in an air cooled 1300cc 45 Vtwin, nice stg1 pipes, rebuild rear frame to fit fatboy tires, get a decent fork, comfy solo rider seat & there you go.

I respect the grom bros but for those of us the the rebel is or will be the very first motorcycle ever I would rather ride something that doesn't look like an odd dirt bike. but to each their own ya know?

I am disappointed with the lack of aftermarket performance parts for the 250 Rebel.

+Eggly Bagelface yeah but you kinda need to know where your going
why is it just this guy talking the whole time...such a waste of time. show us some bikes
"Ehhh, you could do these things or maybe not, I dunnno, if you want to, i guess"
I apreciate your video to bring idea's to modify the rebel,

wheres the bike from the intro...those are mods, not bolt on aftermarket parts that your talking about
Really, c'mon dude, I want to see the bike not your lips flapping at not saying anything.
Good ideas, I do have fun on my Rebel #250cc
hey! never knew you had a channel! went to highschool with you bro. great vid!
Fyi- *He's my gay lover.* 👬
Woowww
Quick question. What's the widest back tire you can place on a 250 rebel? Thank you.
Ask for something as wide as possible that does not rub at your local motorcycle tyre shop. That's exactly what I did. The tyre is in my avatar.
chain sprockets ratio mod and slightly bigger carburettor jiggler will do
cuanto cuesta
I was hoping to hear more about gear and sprocket changes.

What about gearing?
280cc big bore kit 2-250 usd :)

Not tryna make fun or anything, but this dude looks scary similar to Frodo Baggins.
Please make a fogger carb and a ceramic piston
This felt like reading ALL the writting on a Ruger firearm. BORING.
This video should just be a blog entry.
Good video!!
You forgot to take your helmet off.
Hold on, you don't recommend these parts? Tf lol

Screw the rebel get a GROM
I respect the grom bros but for those of us the the rebel is or will be the very first motorcycle ever I would rather ride something that doesn't look like an odd dirt bike. but to each their own ya know?
The grom is more expensive and can’t even go on the highway.
AMAZING VIDEO, but HOLY SHIT you look really depressed, and I'm a boderline emo.

Speaking of distractions, its hard to understand when you are saying, when talking quickly and playing music at the same time.
