Honda Rebel 500

Honda · 11 model years · 2017-2027 All Honda models →

Honda revived the Rebel name in 2017 on two new cruisers, the Rebel 300 and Rebel 500. The 500 uses a 471cc parallel twin closely related to the CB500 family, in a low, slim cruiser chassis with a seat height around 690mm, one of the lowest Honda offers on a full-size motorcycle.

The Rebel's purpose is accessibility. Riders with shorter legs and new riders can put both feet down, and the engine is tuned for easy, tractable power rather than outright speed. ABS became widely available after the early years, and later updates added LED lighting, a slipper clutch and Honda's E-Clutch on some models. Riders who want the same motor with an upright position should look at the CB500F or CB500X, while the main cruiser rivals are the Kawasaki Vulcan S and Royal Enfield Meteor 350.
