Why did this simple cruiser become one of world's highest selling bikes? Everett Powersport: www.everettpowersports.com/ Link to this bike (if still available): www.everettpowersports.com/de...
i feel like the "boring" is an opinionated statement. i personally am not a fan of this style. i prefer sportbikes because thats what im used to. but i still can see why others enjoy their perferred style. the only other reason why i can think of him saying this is just because its a very basic bike when compared to higher end models. i think its a great bike for new riders though. a kid from my MSF course is buying one soon and ill be riding it back to his place from the shop for him. its his starter bike and he seems super excited for it.
I had several models in the past, and I truly believe the Rebel 500 is a really nice bike. probably not great in anything in particular, but it is very good in general. And far from being boring, it only depends on what you are looking for when buying a motorcycle.
Thank you for your reviews on these Rebels. I went from the 300 abs video to this 500 video and it actually put me more in the direction of a 300 than a 500, abs or not.
@@emadreviews I see, I think you meant boring as in “simple” and straightforward bike right. But the Rebel 1100 is definitely a bike that is tempting to get. 😁
Great bike . Practical buy . Gets to 160 km/h and stay there with ease no problem. Who goes to more than 130 km/h in real life ?! No one . May be in Germany only . And very economical in fuel and very very very reliable . And it is not a small bike at all. 185 cm tall men will feel good on it . Trust me. For 160 cm to 187 cm height men
The only thing boring about these bikes is the complete lack of color. Somehow, Honda managed to pull off a completely sterile look with all black. The only color on these bikes is the tank, and even that is black on this one lol. They also have a weird look/feel on them that is just cheap. Not cheaply made, just cheap looking.
The color is kind of interesting from up close. It has metallic flakes that shine under the sunlight. Kind of cool but yeah overall the colors are limited each model year.
I am not buying how the 500cc parallel twin cruiser with 45 HP is more popular! What are the demographics, location and most importantly the credible source for this claim?
The claim comes from the analysis of units available/sold across 3 major websites around the globe: CycleTrader in the US, Auto trader in the UK, Bikewale in India. If you filter for various Rebels, the 500 is available for sale in the highest units compared to the 300 and 1100 indicating its popularity. Great question and thanks for watching!
Simple The 500 series is enough power to get people moving, has 2 cylinders vs the 300, still gets excellent fuel economy, is A2 compliant(very much neede in the EU), cheap on insurance and costs a lot less than the 1100, while being not that much more than the 300 It's a sweet spot for many ppl, that just want A motorcycle, that happens to be cruiser style
The problem with 300 version is so awkward. At least in East/Southeast Asia here we have the 250cc version, which qualifies as a small bike with NO inspection, lower tax and low insurances. 300cc engine doesn't have that discount.
It's also successful because it's a solid bike. Yes, it's cheap to buy, but also cheap to maintain and cheap to modify, there's a ton of things out there to give it your own look most at very little cost. I've had my 2023 for a year now, and not a single issue with it.
