Owner's Review 2022 Honda Rebel CMX1100 DCT

[@jackchueh1231]

Which top case is that?

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

It is SW Motech Trax Adv. It really is great and fits one helmet. It is fitted to a SW Motech adventure rack that is secured to the Honda rear rack. Very secure.

🇺🇸 Outstanding review on the bike I picked up last August. I have the 2022 model year and it had only 1224 miles on the clock when I purchased it. The dealership installed a Memphis Shades Batwing fairing windscreen at no charge! I had to swap out the muffler (it was an eyesore for me) and seat. There’s no pillion (passenger) seat on the American model, so I installed one and a sissy bar backrest. I absolutely love this bike, and the DCT lets me concentrate more on what is going on around me on the roads instead of worrying about shift timing, rev matching, friction zones etc! This is my forever bike and I am strongly considering the Honda Goldwing as my next acquisition for those really long trips.

Thanks I am looking forward to the 2024 season and will do a follow-up walk around on the things I have done to the bike.

Im also in Scotland, have had the manual 1100 rebel over a year now , excellent bike

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

Out of the three bikes I have this is the goto bike for a pottle around Perthshire.

Thank you for your interesting review! I have traveled northern Scotland and I envy you your road choices. I am in northern Arizona, where all our riding is mountain desert, kind of the opposite. I noticed your comment re glare off the speedometer when sun at your back. I solved this with a simple piece of black cardboard - it slides easily into the gap just above the glass.

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

Nice solution but here in Scotland it would get soggy pretty quick.

I bought mine in the state and being a cluch guy, the dealer asure me that i would like it, and i did. I drive it on Manual and she is very nice a she downshift automaticaly, a grear feature. The rain mode save me in wet days so is no gimic. Then i put it back to Use mode long geqr hold stile mode. All friend that make fun of me, ler them ride and up gettig one. Lol😂.

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

I have it set in user mode and don't use anything else. I want the bike to behave the same every ride.

[@PC1963PC]

I have the same bike, what are your replacement front pegs, and where did you get them from?

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

They are Burley Brand and I got them on eBay. Very pleased with them.

[@vikashvlog4884]

Watching from india❤

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

Is the Rebel popular in India?

[@vikashvlog4884]

No sir this bike is not available in india May be in 2024 . From which country ur ?

[@huetuber1204]

I can't decide between this and a Honda NC750X DCT.

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

I had an NC750X and it is a competent bike, I swapped it for the X-ADV 750 and think that is a much better option for me. If you are going any distance or commuting get the X. The X will give you better touring luggage options and passanger comfort. If you travel relatively short distance then I would say the Rebel. Style wise it is the Rebel.

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

Go for the one that meets your luggage and passanger needs. Both are great bikes I had an X for 5 years. If you ride solo then you must give the Rebel a try.

[@huetuber1204]

@@StayAtHomeBiker thanks for the reply. Yes I ride solo and I was thinking maybe using a motorcycle to commute to work. I live in Southern California where the traffic is bumper-to-bumper everyday. So I would be weaving in-and-out between cars.

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

If in traffic perhaps the taller stance of the X would be safer as you are quite low down on the Rebel, those SUV drivers might not register you. The X with fog lamps and an upgraded horn!

[@huetuber1204]

@@StayAtHomeBiker I was thinking the same thing. I also heard that the seating position on the Rebel makes your back hurt. My commute to work is 20 miles each way.

[@georgearcher5696]

You ride a motorcycle not drive it

[@StayAtHomeBiker]

Can't deny that, perhaps what I meant was using DCT it is like driving.

[@georgearcher5696]

@@StayAtHomeBiker I think dct is a good thing it can change gear far quicker than manual and also good for disabled people who still want to Ride
