- I still can’t believe this happened!!
I don’t know how I keep finding these CRAZY deals on Honda Rebels, but I’m not mad at it!
So…what’re your thoughts on this wrecked Rebel 500? Should I buy it and do my first motorcycle rebuild series, fixing the bike from the ground up? Or is it better to walk away from this Rebel altogether? What would YOU pay for this bike to make it worth it?
SO many questions! Let me know below!

It's really easy to check if the forks are bend, simply start riding and let go of the handlebar, if its keeps going straight its good, if you go left or right your fork needs to be replaced
I wouldn't go more then 3k on it also when planing a project I always expected to cost at least 50% more than I'm planning.
Loved the vid and excited for the series
Great video Burch !!! 🤙🏽
And yes you should. I would love to watch you rebuild it ❤️
So valuable!!! Thanks for the video
Ooooh I love rebuild series :D Hope you got the bike !
Just discovered your channel the other day and looking to get my first bike loving the videos!
That’s awesome dude!! Stoked to have you along for the ride! 😎🤘🏻
Watching your videos because I'm too chicken to ride a motorcycle but if I wasn't, I would definitely get the rebel 500
It’s not as scary as it seems! Start off on something small and easy like the Navi and I bet you’d love it! 🙌🏻 Thanks for watching dude! 🙏🏻
Don't be scared. You're missing so much. Riding anything is better than nothing. Start with a Honda Monkey or Trail 125 or... The list goes on and on. It doesn't have to be highway capable if you live in the city especially if it's your first bike. I'd be willing to help you if you were local to me in AZ too. Heck is even talk with you on the phone. I started riding when I was 13 and just turned 60. I've raced bikes and sold bikes and have owned a lot of bikes. If I can help you I will. 👍
Dude I would LOVE to watch a rebuild of this Rebel!
Currently saving up for my first bike in March next year.. Scouring through all your Rebel videos hahaha
would be very nice to see a rebuild series of this beauty :D
Guarantee the bars are bent and need replaced. The bushings for the bars also need replaced. If you can't tell the fork tubes are bent you take them off and put a framing square or level on them to check. I bought and fixed up a 2010 fat bob. I had alot of fun and learned alot. I rebuilt the forks myself w new seals gaskets o-rings etc. I also fixed everything else myself as well. New bars and bushings etc.
I had this exact bike (2021 Rebel 500 ABS SE) and I dropped it in a parking lot causing similar damage to this except the tank wasn’t quite this dented. You’re exactly right about the handlebars. Loosening those two nuts will allow you to straighten the handlebars. I traded my bike in this spring after straightening the handlebars myself but with the damage to the tank, muffler, etc still there. A dealership gave me $4700 for it.
I've had a Rebel 500 S for about a year now and I love it
Yo I'm so excited about this!
So am I dude!! I can’t wait to see how it turns out! 😎🤘🏻
Burch! Just made it over 1k miles on my triumph trident! props to you for taking over a project,
Thats crazy was looking at this exact bike. First time rider here but you beat me to it
I say around 4 to 4.5k for it.
Three k I need a Honda rebel please I been wanting one for months ...love the seat ... Family enjoys your educational voice !!!🇺🇸👍
When I had my little crash on my Honda CB300R my bars was little bit side way too
And I fixed them, but now it not quite in lane as before. That stupid rubber bushings 🤪
im actually going to take the classes this month i was looking at honda rebel for a while now
You should get an orange tank for your 1100 :D
I want to so badly!! Unfortunately my bank account has other ideas 😅😂
@@LifeOfBurch Those pesky bank accounts. I've ordered a Miller exhaust, which is compliant with all the pesky laws of the land. I hope it sounds great. I looks really nice 😆
I would pay 4.5 for it to be honest. Or even would go to 5k.
I have the same bike, and had a very similar thing happened to me.
here's the story Burch... I think the handle bars are not so croocked, but it's they got missaligned because of the hit it's a matter of realigning the raisers... the tank is repairable, so need to buy a new one, even that deep a good body shop can work the bends out a lot, and then just a matter of paste to get it to look brand new.
I know all this because I kinda had a similar accident at 0 mph... and the tank bent a bit hitting the controls, my brake got bent (I was able to get it in position by kicking it a bit).
Most of the damage is just a body job, so I would go about 5k on that as it is.
Buy it! The 500 SE with the stitched seat and headlight cowl is nice. It looks miles and above better than the stock 500. As for price? $4000 seems fair to you and the guy selling it, especially if it’s only cosmetic damages
Yo, love the content! My wife and I have been watching because we plan to get our first bikes/endorsements in the Spring. We were wondering what your thoughts were on the '22 Honda Phantom? Thanks for any input brother!
Is it 4-4,5k?
Great bike to give away
And more fixes and install videos 🤩
I plan on getting my first bike this year and would be estatic if I found a potential deal like this and id probably not want to spend moe than 3.2 k on given the needed repairs. Outside of a couple of things like the handle bars and brakes, it seems like its mostly cosmetic issues that could be fixed over time if kept, or done quickly to resell.
My 2022 pearl brown 1100 will be here at the end of July and I'm stoked!
Yooo congrats!! I bet you’re so excited!!
Beyond stoked! Been watching your channel since I reserved it and I'm excited for the TBR upswept exhaust will be the first thing i buy.
The 500 se is my dream bike been saving up for a while now
Now I feel like I HAVE to get it, fix it, and raffle it off so you can win it!! 😳
Do I smell a Honda Relebel build serious?!?
Full bet, you get it for around under 4k I think it's a solid deal. From a mechanics point of view, if you are riding fine and don't notice any suspension issues and they are straight like you saw, 9 times out of 10, those forks should be fine. I'd say go for it if you're comfortable doing so.
Also, I'd love to win a Burch Special Rebel 500 on Patreon haha. Never owned/rode a 500 before myself. Only my previous 300 and now 1100.
Dude if I do get it, I need to make vinyls that look OEM, but say Relebel 500 😂😂😂
And that would be sick if you won, thus technically completing YOUR Honda Rebel trifecta 🤯
@@LifeOfBurch Go full stop. Relebel 500 Decals with LifeOfBurch decals too. Thing will definitely be ballin. You should totally sign it somewhere and then put a protective coat over it as well.
after reading some of the comments, it's almost a new bike. 5 grand, maybe. more like 45 hundred, because you have to move it now, not in a day or two. other than the tank, brake pedal, i wouldn't worry about scratches. that's just me though. yup 4 grand, take it or leave it!!
its the same as mine, but i think im weird cause i dont like the cowl..i removed it , put the shorty gp and end bar mirrors and its looking great! its hard to say if its a good deal or not without knowing how much he wants , but i guess 3k/3.5k would be great
That bike does look cool and a lot better than I thought it would
Agreed! The SE model looks great in person!
Air compressor might be able to pop the dent out of the tank close enough for a skim and paint.
Oh man that’s a beautiful color on the rebel 500. I hope i get it as my first bike sometime soon though lol!
If I end up getting this and raffling it off you’ll have to enter! That would be such a sick way to get your first bike! 😳
Oh man wouldn’t it be? I will definitely enter even if i don’t win i hope it helps you out as much as possible! 💪🏾💪🏾
@@abdoulayesarr5287 I appreciate that my guy!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Of course brother!
Ah dude no way, I live right next to there. Used to work at the Smoothie King where you stopped at the end. Been looking into buying a Rebel and absolutely would have gotten this if it were a good deal and I wasn’t out of town this summer and had seen it
yea seems not too bad of a deal, i would go for it
I would always take into account the possible cost and never go with the thought that "it may not cost X." At that point youre selling the bike to yourself instead of the bike selling itself and you could likely take a lose in cost. I would try my best to have the seller take on the costs and if their is no wiggle room I walk.
Yea it’s definitely a good idea to leave a decent amount of wiggle room in what you think the repairs will cost! Last thing you want is an unexpected expense that blows the deal 😳
ya you just replace the rubber bushings super easy and cheap. Brand new fork assembly aren't that bad i recently did mine got them for $250 each. Took about 35 minutes to do super easy and changed out the 10w oil for 15w and that was a huge improvement with riding and doing wheelies. but it looks like you just need the rubber bushings. ive gotten in 3 crashes and had to replace my forks 2 times and the riser bushings. easy and cheap. Wouldnt pay more then $3500 for it.
Bro... if you do a giveaway I'll definitely enter that this time, my Honda Shadow 1100 I've been riding has some gas tank dents, a vent passenger peg and most recently the rear brakes (drum brakes) disconnected somehow between the foot brake lever and the brake lever that actuates the drum bake itself.
TL;DR If you do a giveaway, hell yeah man. Otherwise if Nina is competent and capable on the 300, has slow speed maneuvers and whatnot good to go, maybe upgrade for Nina and raffle the 300??
Just an FYI, don't play with the keys next to a storm drain. Nice buy.
Man you had me going with that thumbnail. I thought you wrecked the 1100. If you are ever down around Raleigh NC lets cruise!
Oh damn!! I would never let that happen, BUT if I did, the thumbnail would be far more dramatic (once I was done crying) 😂😂😂 I have a bunch of family in NC, but not sure how far from Raleigh they are. Some are in the Greensboro area and some in the Elkin/Boone area.
@@LifeOfBurch Boone is about 5 hours or so if I remember correctly but Greensboro should be under an hour and a half. It would be cool to grab lunch or something next time you are down that way. Plus I could bring the Shadow 750 or Katana 600 if you were interested in doing a review.
Buy it it’s a good deal. I have the SE model and with taxes and freight I paid 8,000 cash brand new
When the bars got crooked on my rebel, I just stuck the front wheel in between my legs and grab the handlebars and turned them. Didn't have to use any tools.
Yea I’ve heard other people say the same! They just treated it like when you wreck a bicycle as a kid and have to yank everything back straight 😂
@@LifeOfBurch That's pretty much it 🙂 it happened right after I raise the handlebar so the center of gravity changed. I tried to do a U-turn, which I was not terribly good at still at the time, but I dropped the bike hard. This was a week before I left for my 1,000 mile road trip to Kansas couple years ago. Thank God I didn't break anything lol
I'd have to have my heart set on this bike to spend more than 3.5k on it. If the cost to fix it brought my total to around 4.5k and I had to do all the labor I would probably get something else at that point. But I'm not a big cruiser fan, so I could see others being willing to spend more to pick it up. I still can't believe the deal you got on Nina's rebel 300 though...
Great insight dude! And yea Nina and I are still in shock at how crazy that deal was, especially seeing how wild the market is right now! 😳
But you got to understand that bike will pay for itself it will give him content then he can raffle it. That's what I'd do
I'm assuming you already got it. I once had a bike mangled and after replacing the bars (just still slightly off) thought the forks were bent, and it turned out to be a bolt between the bars and triple tree.
the correct number of bikes toown is X+1 where X equals your current number of bikes. snatch that up if it is under $4K, i ould guess it is closer to $3K though
Use compressed air to pop the tank back out. You would have to remove it to plug it
By the time I go through all that trouble, pay to have it smoothed out and painted, waste all the time having the tank off the bike, etc, it would just make more sense to get a new tank 🤷🏼♂️
@@LifeOfBurch I had a similar dent in my 500 Rebel tank filled and resprayed (inc a new Honda decal) for about $200. I also had bent bars like you which became perfectly straight once I slackened off the bolts and reset the rubber grommets (zero cost). I've upgrded to a 1100 Rebel DCT now but I loved every mile I rode on the 500 :)
I have an Indian scout and absolutely adore it.
I wouldn’t go get a scout 60, scout bobber, and scout rogue though…ha!
Good luck man 👍
*Matthew McConaughey voice* “You’d be a lot cooler if you did” 😎😂😂😂
Haha!
Bro, I’ve thought about it, for real.
The rebel is a terrific bike. If I didn’t go with the scout, the rebel 1100 is what I would have gone with.
I’ve thought about going for a rebel 500 as a 2nd bike as well.
If I wasn’t saving up for a triumph speed triple, the rebel 500 would probably be mine.
Good luck on your fix/build!
at the end of this video, i Love looking at my Orange Rebel 500!!!!
The orange color is just sooo nice in person!! When the sun hits it 😩😩😩
@@LifeOfBurch yup, when i wash the bike i put a light coat of Turtle wax on it, and it POPS!!
You driving to my old town 😆manassas yay
looks fine to me. I'd buy it. I'm guessing that Honda motor alone is worth more than what you're buying the whole bike for.
I'd say about $2500 would be a good price. After you finish $3500-$4000 in it. Leaves you a little room to make a small profit
I say raffle that sucker off. Mostly because I'm a greedy little bastard and I want it! :P Or hang on to it for when Nina feels comfortable enough to move up from the 300. Seriously though, that's a slick looking bike, and as long as it's functional, minor cosmetic issues sort of make it more appealing to actually ride it.
My first (and thus far only) bike is a 2003 883 that sat for years in storage. It looks pretty nice in photos, but it has some rust spots from sitting so long. And scrapes from me dropping the poor thing. But the fact that it wasn't pristine when I got it made me less concerned about subsequent scrapes. It's well past the point of being a museum piece, so now it's just meant to be RIDDEN. Seems like this specific Rebel is in a similar state, despite being only one freakin' year old!
I'm so fortunate to have my Sporty. No question there. But damn do I want a second, more efficient, and less shaky ride! :D
As someone who is looking to get into the motorcycle community, but is on a really tight budget, what is the best way to look for used bikes to purchase. I love the Honda Rebels but everything I find is the same price as a brand new one.
I like your channel dude your reviews are better than Yammie noob
Ayyy I appreciate that so much dude!! Thanks for watching! 😎🤘🏻
Of course you're gonna buy it!!
👀👀👀
I'd take it on as a project for sure. Especially since I am looking to buy a 500 anyway. Aside the tank most of those parts are candidates for customized replacement anyway, right?!
My thoughts exactly! 🤘🏻
Think my comment got deleted. First off love those pants. Second, if you did a giveaway I would meet whatever requirement to be entered and or increase my chances of winning. Use that to your advantage. I would suggest patreon or merch as means of entry to recoup the cost of the bike and repairs and possibly make some profit. Good luck, Burch. Cant wait to see some vids on this if you decided to buy it
Front wheel looks bent as hell when you leaned over the bars
U should check out an Indian scout rogue
It would definitely be sick to get to test ride one! 🤘🏻
my dream bike. i would take regaurdless lol
Need to find out if he reported the wreck when he wrecked it. If he did then when you fix it, it will be a rebuilt title. The brake issue is more than likely the fact that the lever is bent and is in a bind. You may have to end up replacing the bolt that holds the handlebar mount as it was more than likely bent in the crash. Also check revzilla for the replacement tank as they are usually cheaper than the honda dealership on the tank. Just make sure that you have the correct part number for the tank as you may end up with a tank of a different color from the bike, a.k.a. like my bike being black with a maroon tank cause of a $200 price difference. Throttle cable will have to be taped or replaced as having it exposed as it is can cause issues with corrosion down the line. All in all I would say I wouldn't go over 3500 for the bike and if you sell it after repairs go for around 5000, or 20% over the cost of bike and parts.
The accident was not reported, so it still has a clean title! 🙌🏻 Definitely good insight on everything else too 👌🏻 Thanks Mike!
@@LifeOfBurch not a problem as you know that is what happened with my 1100. Luckily for you the instrument panel didn't get broken cause that would have been another 500 added to the cost of repairs.
@@LifeOfBurch also for making videos while driving the car they make a quad lock mount for your car as well.
Woah, Burch how far are you from Brambleton VA that’s where I live, I just picked up a 2022 low rider s if you’re ever in the area and wanna do a vid or something, I’m like 30-40 from manassas
Those are easy fix if the price was good I would of bought it too
So I was on my way to get a rebel 500, I'm sure you might remember me popping into livestreams and donating for coffees and whatnot. I ended up choosing to move into an apartment over the bike and completely regret my decision, so now I'm going to be saving up AGAIN for the 500. While on a job however, a woman I was doing a garage door bid for had the exact model rebel I wanted right before my eyes and she offered me advice saying I'm too big for it and that I'll get bored. For some reason somethings telling me to still go for it, I'm about 5'11", 175lbs, 31" inseam. I'd figured if the issue lies on not having leg room, to opt for a forward controls kit.
Thoughts Burch?
The 500 is a great option for someone your size. Not sure what she’s talking about
Dude, still go for it. I'm 6'5", weighed 240lbs at time of, and I rode on a Rebel 250 (2005 model, less than 1 year ago now) and had plenty fun.
Edit: oh, about leg positioning, that Rebel 250 had mid-controls (also called Standard) and only change was the bike had floorboards instead of pegs. I wasn't uncomfortable. I could turn handlebars all the way without hitting knees, etc. 36" inseam.
@@MrCODEmaster00 What was the seat height on that? The new rebels all have a 27.1 inch seat height which is what a lot of people say kills it for taller guys, but ty for the reply also
Here!!!!!
JIMMAYYY!!! 😎🤘🏻🙌🏻
I'd love to win a Honda to compare it to my Harley fleet, but my 2 cents would be a Patreon giveaway. Take care of those who take care of you. Don't forget to throw a brand on it.
Yes, you need another Honda Rebel.
2500 for bike
1000 for repairs = 3500
Sell it for 4800 👍
Max 2500... Not more... Just due to the fact that some of those problems could potentially be way more expensive to fix. Given my time required to fix it including researching and buying parts and fitting them, I wouldn't get involved with it. I have limited spare time and I prefer to spend it on riding than wrenching.
I wouldn't pay more than 2500 and even thats Pushing it. But you on the other hand will earn revenue off the content. So if you think you can make your money back on it just in a video series then do it. What have you to lose. If I were you I'd reach out to some of the brands that make the parts and see if you can't get a discount or even free by advertising them in the video.
I like where your head’s at! 👀
If you want a shortygp for it you can have mine 🧐 I went back to the stock exhaust.
Do you need another bike no but also always 😋
I'm very hype for the series! If you did get it.
Ooo I’ll keep that in mind! I forgot you took yours off! Thanks dude 🤘🏻
@@LifeOfBurch no problem brotha!
If it’s less than $5.5k and I had the means to, I’d go for it. Cause then you have another $500 available in unseen costs, or money that could be put to rent or something.
If someone buys for $5500 Plus he still has to put $800 into the Deal is not worth it
@@ace7391 It’s fine to think that. I would think it is worth it. But that’s as high as I’d go. I was leaning more to $5k
@@Irule-og1od If we’re talking in the aspects of keeping the bike $5.5k is a good price.
@@ace7391 Agreed. If you’re trying to sell it, absolutely stick around sub $4500
Ive only seen a couple of your videos but why do you only ride through neighborhoods? isnt there anywhere you can take it on some twisties or at least through a forest preserve?
You gotta watch more of my videos then brotha! I do plenty of twisty, scenic stuff! As for forest preserves though…you don’t get much of that around here 😅
Here’s one I think you’ll dig! We flew out to Tennessee and borrowed a buddy’s bike for the first annual Rebel 1100 owners meet! This is about as scenic as it gets 😍 th-cam.com/video/BpIabwu1fFA/w-d-xo.html
Buy the Rebel 500 for $4,000 to $4500. Bike is not totaled. Has seller bought the bike out right or does he owe on it still? This is not a rebuild all you are doing is replacing parts. I totaled a bike years ago. Made one payment on it. The insurance payed off loan. I bought it back ($1100 mc) for $75. Put in $350 and had a new motorcycle to ride for the next 15 years. Good luck. If you are going give it away or what ever I’m in on that. I’ve been looking for one of these all year long. 68 now and not getting any younger. Thanks.
Two brothers exhaust! The shorty sounds horrid imho.
Those little dings and knicks , can and will cost you a paint jobs for someone to re spay and blend it in correctly , may not matter to a lot of us but it does cost money to do it right unless your ready to set up a make shift paint shop and do something you may want to pay some one for , and all the other problems and issues, I wouldn’t do nothing more than 3 grand, thats fair for both , I believe , give or take a couple hundred, at the most after that , I don’t cause you got to take in account that your labor is not free , it’s going to cost you time money and energy putting this project into reality, and you need to eat , let someone else take it nothing over 3200 , if it’s going to cost 800 times 2 = 1,600 plus a possible re-spray and blend idk that’ll put you at 4,800 plus all your time effort , going too cost more money 💰 than you first thought , no one is going to pay 6,800 ever again for something used and crashed at 25 even if it had nicer parts on it than stock
Thanks!
You need a hand. lol
I guess if I get it we’ll find out real quick! 😅😂
🇺🇸you correct all issues sir I give you five k ... No horse shit
👍
3 to 4k is what it's probably what I'd give.
I'm guessing you said it's $3500
I would just like to say that I wouldn't resale or give away that bike due to all sorts of legal liabilities. If you "fix" it, give it away, and somebody gets hurt, you are going to spend a lot of time in court. It's similar to how a lot of guys in my industry won't touch wrecked trailers. - Professional fabricator/inspector.
Wish they made the 500 optional with a dct
I doubt they’d do that because it would mess with the 1100 DCT sales. I’m sure it would be GREAT for new riders though!
If they brought back the Rebel 250 and made it DCT only, it would sell like hotcakes, or maybe just a little Honda Rebel 125 🤣
@@LifeOfBurch I don't think so a dct 500 would be an amazing starter and then there's an option to upgrade to the 1100 dct
Anything above $4200 maybe $4500 You can fix it up and relist it for $5800 to $6200.
how much should I pay for a second hand rebel 500??
why did you muted the price?
I didn’t mute the price? I said that I paid $3,000 for it. But how much you should pay totally depends on condition, location, year, mods, etc etc.
Oh wait I said the price in another video. The way you asked it was weird. I said that I would say in the next video how much I paid. Not sure what you mean by muted?
@@LifeOfBurch hahaha sorry english is not my first language, but you did answer my question thank you!
@@LifeOfBurch I do not know anything about motorcycles, so I do not know how much I should pay for a second hand, do you think is worth it to buy a brand new if is gonna be my first bike ever?
If it retails at $6800 I wouldn't go more than $3800, just incase there's more problems once you tear into it. Never be optimistic buying a dropped bike!! It might be the rubber mounts, it might be the yoke/headstock/forks. The back brake might be the lever but it might be the hydraulic cylinder, or the linkage, or both! It could be the brake line is pinched or the caliper piston is cocked and stuck.
I see a lot of overpriced broken bikes/cars these days saying "might be an easy fix if you know what you're doing." Yeah, but it might not, and YOU'RE going to pay for your mistake, not I.
After all the work and asuming it goes to plan I think youd be able to flog it for 5-5.5k easy. Taking into account its little use. Good luck with the project :)
Thanks dude!! 😎🤘🏻
You could totally fix the tank instead of buying a new one xD
Just because I *could*, doesn’t mean I *should*. Makes much more sense to just get a new tank from both a time, money, and ease standpoint 🤷🏼♂️
@@LifeOfBurch Fair lol I'm just cheap xD
I’d go $3.5k at most
3k max 3.5k
Yo Burch cool vid. My vote is u sell that bastard & try to make a few bucks, though I admire ur idea of a giveaway. ✌️🐐✌️
In Philadelphia its worth $50 bucks lol
If it was mine I'd sell it for like $4500
easily a $6.5k bike even with that damage that you paid about $3.5k for? that's a steal man. are you gonna make it orange again?
Go into everything like you need to make a profit. I wouldn’t spend more than $3k on it. You will probably find other issues when you get into it.
Channel giveaway
I wouldn’t pay a penny more than $3k. Ideally be between $2500-$2700.
