2026 Honda® Rebel 500 SE

From first ride to forever ride

Rebel 500 makes every ride approachable, fun, and stylish—now with ABS standard on every model. Choose the classic 500 or the factory-custom SE—either way, this lightweight cruiser is a canvas for your style, with a proven parallel-twin engine, easy handling, and the confidence to explore the open road.

Features may include:

• Sporty engine

Celebrated for its versatility, the narrow parallel-twin engine masters size reduction while delivering big low-rpm torque and thrilling high-rpm performance.

• Disc brakes with ABS

Front and rear disc brakes with our Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) now come standard on all trims, giving you excellent linear stopping power for supreme confidence in even the most challenging conditions.

• Slipper clutch

Born from Honda's racing pedigree, the perfected slipper clutch delivers a 30-percent lighter pull at the lever and steadfast lock-out when power meets the road.

• Blacked-out style

Our entire Rebel line features black elements throughout, allowing you to choose between understated elegance or creative exploration. It serves as a canvas of self-expression that's impressive by day and a masterpiece at night.

• Low seat height

In the realm of cruiser seat heights, lower reigns supreme. This bike flaunts one of the lowest at 27.2 inches for maximum rider comfort and easy flat-footing at lights or in parking lots.

• All-LED lighting package

The entire Rebel lineup features an all-LED setup, providing brighter, lighter, and longer-lasting illumination.
