3 years ago i got a honda pcx 150 (first 2 wheeler) for my daily commute. absolutely loved it, and the 115mpg. 5 months ago i got the 1100 dct. absolutely love it. only complaints would be the seat and tank size. i am going to bring the bars back a few inches tho. it's a great 1st (real) bike. approaching 6k already and no issues. works for me just fine
Great review. Your motorcycle enthusiasm is infectious. I’m an old guy on a Chieftain. Looking at the Rebel 1100. Mainly to cut back on weight by a few hundo. Thanks!
Hey Ive considered going from a Rebel to a CBR500R. Can I ask you what made you migrate from the CBR650r to the Rebel 1100? im curious cause here i am trying to do the switch lol
Hey there, is this bike suitable for a daily rider (going to work, and monthly long distance rides etc)? Especially for people who only have time and money for just 1 bike?
Great video...I am seriously considering trading my Ducati Scrambler for one of these. I love Honda motorcycles. Thanks for the video--liked and subbed!
The brake lever probably might have turned “ brown” because you might be riding on roads that have been dusted with salt and brine. We live in an area that gets a fair amount of snow ( Appalachia), and I never ride until a good rain has washed away all the salt on the roads.
I wanted a more comfortable seating position for long rides. It was honestly mostly because I moved from the city to the country and my rides got a lot longer.
I can answer the first question, since the clutch is visible :) As for the throttle, I cannot answer on behalf of OP, but mine is a DCT, and the throttle is twitchy, and without a clutch to offset that, one needs a lot of practice (and rear braking).
I broke 20k and 2 years owning my Rebel 1100... just normal maintenance items and its been a fantastic bike.
Got mine October of 21. Haven't regretted it since.
Dude that scenery is amazing! What a great place for a cruise

Thank you for sharing your excitement, love my Rebel 1100, same color😉
Best feeling pulling the bike out a little early!

Thank you! It means a lot! People like you are the reason why I love the motorcycle community!
That's got to be awesome my first bike I ever gad was a 1993 Honda Rebel 250cc it was the best bike I ever had growing up thanks Pop's
I switched my CBR650R to a Rebel 1100 and I don’t regret it. Nice to see Rebels in Utah, I live in Orem. Thanks for the review.
We need to get a group together this summer!

Eyyy fellow Utah rider! I’m pumped to get my rebel. If it ever comes in haha. I’ve gotten delayed every month since my original delivery in April 😂
I got scooter rebell 1100 and i can relax, with its back rest. Is perfect.
Just bought a rebel 1100mt for $20.000USD here in Asia….
Thanks for the good review.
My pleasure!

I didn’t even think about that! Thank you!
What made you want to switch from a sport bike to a cruiser?

Wow must be nice to have nice things in life so more power to you. I guess

Is yours manual. How much suspension travel? How is it on bumpy roads? How smooth is the throttle response..on/off choppy or smooth?
Great questions. I will have to do a video on that. I don’t have enough room in the comments.

@@abouzeidh Thank you.
Dude you’re in Ogden right ! We should go ride. I got a 1100
Yeah! I’m totally down man! What’s the best way to get in contact?
@@l-tizzle do you have instagram? or facebook?
@@doom3crazy As of now, I don’t have one. But I am planning on making an instagram account soon. I will let you know when it is done!
@@l-tizzle how about an email ? I just need a quick easy way we can get in contact with each other to go ride haha
@@doom3crazy instagram is ltizzle_
Honestly I think i would have been ok with the 500. 1100 is a gas hog when over 60MPH which is EVERY freeway/ highway INCONUS
