2021 Honda Rebel 1100 DCT Oil Change 

I was too. But I was more surprised that it takes 4.4 quarts!

@@ThisIsStartingToAnnoyMe seems like a lot my truck takes 5.5qts. This is my first bike so wasn't sure if that was normal. Maybe with such a large capacity that's why they recommend oil filter every other service? If I'm changing oil the filters going too though.

Japanese bikes have been single sump( one fluid) for decades!

Thanks.

I just used what they sold me at the Honda shop.

Yikes there goes the warranty

Same experience

My dealer forgot to change the tranny filter Had to take it back.

I got my windshield off Amazon. It was labeled "Puig 0336W Clear Custom II Windshield for 8" Headlight". It cost $111. I had to trim off a couple of inches from the struts as they wanted to rub on the gas tank. I drove with it to Arkansas (from Kansas) without any problems.

It's nice to get out every last drop of old oil, but that would be a small amount. You could also just hold the bike balanced for a couple of minutes.

Sorry, no idea. I just used what the Honda shop here said was proper. It was the same as the one I took off.

Order the stuff under africa twin same stuff

None that I know of. On The Rebel 11 (youtube) mentioned that he plans to do one. I got my information from here: www.hondarebel3forum.com/search/97811/?q=rebel+1100+oil+leak&o=relevance

I would guess it's okay but the only safe answer is to have a dealer listen to it.

I got the oil from mr Honda dealer. I just asked for oil for my 1100. She gave me 10w40 but it should have been 10w30. I think it was about $30. I also got 2 oil filters and it all came to about $60.

I copied this off an ad o Amazon. New Pro Honda HP4S is Honda's first fully synthetic 4-stroke motorcycle oil and was quite literally years in the making. HP4S is compatible with synthetic blends such as HP4, as well as regular petroleum oils like GN4. There is no need to flush the crankcases before switching to HP4S. Offers lower friction than conventional oils and better oxidation resistance for better high heat performance. Also gives higher film strength and quicker flow to vital engine parts at low temperatures, especially during start up. Provides maximum power due to less frictional drag. HP4S is recommended for use in all 2006 or newer motorcycles, ATVs, scooters and PWC. It is quite simply put - Pro Honda's very finest four-stroke oil.

I prefer to do both. I don't know the actual requirement, it's not in the owners manual, but the manual shows to use 4.2 quarts as the oil capacity and that is what it uses when draining both and changing the oil filter.

The Honda manual says to replace the oil at 8,000 miles. It does not include the oil and clutch filter at that time but does add it at 16,000 miles. If you don't put many miles on your bike, I would replace the oil every year.

The filter goes on horizontal.

Rebel 1100 owner here . you just lube the rubber gasket

I don't know but I would guestimate about $120-150. The procedure is easy but it does take 2 filters and 4.4 quarts of oil.

Just bought a new one and the first oil change will be $65 - and they will go over everything too so it’s worth it

You are correct. I added that to the description above. I used the 10w40 because that's what the Honda dealer handed me when I asked for Rebel 1100 oil. I have used 10w30 since then. I also have learned that car oil and motorcycle oil differs in that motorcycles use their oil for wet clutches and therefore use friction modifiers.

@@ThisIsStartingToAnnoyMe Did you notice any change in the DCT behaviour using 10W40? I know for example that people that put 10W50 in their DCT had shifting problems....

No. Didnt notice any difference. ​@@motoRoutero

most everything now runs a dry or a semi dry sump system. its actually smart and modern. less internals rotating in an oil bath robbing hp and efficiency

@@MadMax-gc2vj no you don't
