I have MS and have lost most of the flexion strength in my left foot. So it’s very difficult for me to shift on a traditional motorcycle. I thought my riding days were about done. The DCT Rebel was a Godsend. So I know that smile on your buddy’s face! Nice to hear these stories.

Great Review!! To turn traction control all the way OFF: hold down mode button select T (by pressing the mode button to cycle between power, torque, engine braking) use select button to get it down to one bar hold down on the select button until it goes to zero bars It will then reset when you turn the bike off

excellent video! I picked up my manual 1100 about a month ago and damn that thing is nice. even after the new wears off its still a hell of a machine that will no doubt make you think twice about what a cruiser can do. this is the new era of cruisers, and Honda is making sure they make a statement.

[@cbrippee]

I have seen a good number of reviews of this Rebel 1100, yours may be the best. This bike is on my radar. Some others have complained of the harshness of the rear suspension. Apparently theirs was not a dialed in for weight as yours. Honda did a lot right with this bike, especially pricing and tech. They made a huge mistake by not taking a cue from the Vulcan S ergo fit system, which customizes the bike to your fit desires. Mid and forward controls. Floorboard option. Actual windshield for those not wanting the fairing. Reduced reach handle bars. Extended and possible reduced reach seat. The new Indian Chief which will be a competitor of this bike, some what, also has all these options and will sell very well. Right now these bikes are moving quite well, my nearest dealer in Troy, Ohio only had one when I visited 2 weeks ago. Most likely I will wait until next year to see if the aftermarket addresses my needs for this bike. I personally do not see why this bike could not be a first bike. My gosh less than 500 pounds and narrow is light. Learn in the rain mode and when you progress and become confident you have all that more instant power to unleash in standard and then sport mode.

[@BmxDieseldude]

I think this bike will sell a ton initially because I think they're filling a void in the market really well with this. I think they'll then have slow period. After that I think you'll see the numbers climb a bit again though as more "classic cruiser" riders see how good of a machine it actually is and styling becomes more accepted.

[@dougiequick1]

I seriously doubt there is much community monkey see monkey do type thing in the Japanese "cruiser" market (as opposed to biker club type pressure to buy only this or that model Harley along with the civilian weekend wanna be bikers) ....but rather just tons of disconnected individuals that walk into Japanese line dealerships that will probably fall for the image hype of one particular model that they finally sit on and go all "vroom vroom" in their fantasy imaginations... I have heard quite a few testamonies from guys that were torn between a cruiser or a sportbike lol...in other words they have no idea but they just want to buy into a fantasy seeking to become whatever their imagination is working on....THAT I believe is the typical "cruiser" buyer...the ones buying hype rather thanconsidering perhaps the more practical aspects of what riding motorcycles might be for them

Basically, everything that is tied to the character of the bike needs to stay oldschool. Everything that ties to the riding and ownership experience needs to be modernized.

I bought the DCT model about 6 weeks ago and I'm in love with it. First thing I did - Two brothers Racing exhaust and some 5" risers on the handlebars. Maybe a Puig windscreen (because Honda wants $725.00 for theirs- they can keep it) and a nice big saddle bag on the left side.

Ohhhhh booooooooii. Yes.

[@concrete981]

should have commented on riding at 80-100. sometimes traffic is going 100 and you need to keep up or be run off the road....awesome review! that bike would be perfect for me.

[@donhenderson5100]

Another great, detailed review. I would be interested in the manual model vs the DCT. Just a personal preference. It is really a great value as well. I'm interested.

I have a 1978 Honda CB400A which has the Hondamatic 2 speed torque converter transmission. Lift and shift. Makes the morning commute much less tiring on the way home.

Clutch feels that way because it's a slipper

[@altortugas5979]

I was wondering if someone would point that out 😀

[@christopher7310]

I want a cruiser in this small package.... That pulls like my Raider. The kit the Rebel 1100 comes with is impressive. I've just become addicted to the torque pull of my Yamaha. Give me a kit like this that pulls like an angry dragon and I will have no shame in how I aquire the money for it.

[@fs3994]

The Honda has the advantage of changing sprocket sizes to make it pull harder. Yamaha no such option.

[@christopher7310]

@@fs3994 I doubt a simple sprocket change will make the 1100 pull like my Yamaha. And while my Yamaha is belt driven... It really doesn't NEED to pull any harder than it already does. But to have the pull I have now in a lighter bobber styled frame.... That would be amazing... And awesomely terrifying.

[@fs3994]

@@christopher7310 I'm on my 2nd raider. Ecu flashed and tuned. It only feels scary fast to people who haven't rode a proper litre bike. Raider is 700 lbs with a wide spaced transmission gear ratio. Doing sprocket change on rebel with pipe and ecu flash would definitely put it in big bore performance class. Especially being 300 lbs lighter. Don't fool yourself into believeing either bike is fast in the realm of true performance motorcycles.

My taste: Ducati Diavel 1260-S My wallet: Honda Rebel 1100

I can tell you, my cruiser is the best cruiser.

[@CuckBalls]

In my head regular car reviews said that

Just ask I’ll tell you

The reality of the Honda Rebel 1100 DCT ***BIG SCOOTER W/FEW GEARS***. For people with Arthritis and disabilities. Right to the point. God bless USA 🇺🇸.

[@robertstimmel1100]

I started riding with a rebel 500 about four years ago. Now, I have a bmw r nine t. I kind of wish that I had bought one of these instead. My r nine t is great, but it is pretty rough on my back.

[@swaggyghosty9222]

well you should do something soon if it's bad for your back..

[@robertstimmel1100]

@@swaggyghosty9222 I might just get different bars. After about an hour of riding, my shoulders and back are screaming. It makes me not want to ride as much. Edit: I should note that this is probably a problem with me more than the bike. I got in a bad accident a year ago and my body was never really the same after. I'm fine... just get aches a lot easier

[@swaggyghosty9222]

@@robertstimmel1100 oh.. well I hope things get better for ya.. cuz being well is important than the ride. It even happens to me after like 1 and half hour or more of ride. I ride a YBR 125, even tho it's very comfy, my left shoulder starts to ache and gradually goes down towards my lower back

[@robertstimmel1100]

@@swaggyghosty9222 Thanks! I haven't changed much on the bike yet. Just started working out more. Hopefully, if I can back into the shape that I was in before the accident, the back issues will go away on their own. Stay safe out there!

[@hollyscalia3124]

i cant wait to get my first bike:) i want a honda for my first and then eventually work my way to the sporty s 1250! i love how it looks, and most videos ive watched had nothing but good things to say about it!

[@megaderk]

Its weird, the new Rebel 1100 actually comes with a 6 manual but youd never know because theyre marketing the DCT auto so persistently instead

[@artiecisneros4691]

It reminds me of my Virago 1100 that I miss so much. Now I have to figure out how to afford one, first sell my Royal Enfield Fireball Red Meteor. Thank you for a fun and very informative video.

[@adrianjturner]

Please do the DCT video, I'm seriously considering a DCT Honda and would value your opinion! Thanks from England :-)

[@russellschroeder3]

Absolutely love mine--picked one up about 2 months ago and super happy with it. Granted, my primary use is daily commute and use mostly around Tampa Bay area with some occasional highway miles, so the DCT makes any stop and go traffic much less irritating. I love a traditional manual as well but for this bike and how I'm using it, so glad I chose the DCT. Buttery smooth and really fast...shifts faster than I ever could. ;)
