2016 Honda® Rebel

2016 Honda® Rebel

What attracts you to motorcycling? The freedom? The excitement? Getting out in the wind? The economy? The practicality? The style? It’s probably all of the above—at least it is for most riders. And that’s why thousands of riders have picked the Honda Rebel® as their first choice. The Rebel® offers all the freedom and excitement of a motorcycle, but in a package that’s big on style and small on intimidation. Its reliable 234cc four-stroke twin delivers smooth power, and its five-speed transmission is a no-brainer to shift. Then there’s the Rebel®’s price—never has so much style and capability cost so little. No wonder the Rebel® has long been one of our best-selling bikes! Why deal with a used machine or one you’ll outgrow in a year or two when you can be on a Rebel® and living large?

• 234cc SOHC Engine

Proven four-stroke powerplant is smooth, quiet, fuel-efficient and easy to maintain. Screw-type valve adjusters simplify engine work, while automatic cam-chain tensioner and solid-state CD ignition are both maintenance-free.

• Solid-State CD Ignition

Maintenance-free, solid-state CD ignition never needs adjustment and is super-reliable.

• Screw-Type Valve Adjusters

Screw-type valve adjusters are simple, proven, and reliable, and help to simplify maintenance.

• Chassis/Suspension

Semi-double-cradle frame allows a long wheelbase and extremely low seat height (26.6"). Hydraulic front fork with dual bushings and dual rear shocks with five-position spring preload adjustability deliver a smooth ride and light, agile handling.

• Automatic Cam-Chain Tensioner

Automatic cam-chain tensioner requires no maintenance and helps make an already low-maintenance motorcycle even better.

• Constant-Velocity Carburetor

Constant-velocity (CV) carburetor gives excellent throttle response and helps contribute to the Rebel®’s estimated 84 MPG fuel efficiency.

• Front-Disc Brake

Front-disc brake with twin-piston caliper provides great, predictable stopping power and is self-adjusting.

• Electric Starter

Simple, reliable push-button electric starter makes getting underway a snap, even on cold mornings or if your bike’s been sitting for a week.

• Spoke Wheels

The Rebel®’s spoke-type wheels with chrome rims add a real custom look to this sharp machine.

• Classic Styling Accents

Custom-styled, chrome-plated headlight, tail light and turn signal casings add gleaming touches to the classic Rebel® package. Pullback handlebar, teardrop fuel tank, two-piece custom seat and bobbed fenders evoke the classic look of yesteryear.
