This is great for the wives that don't want to shift gears(like mine) and want to ride with their person, Or people that have issues shifting gears all the time and want to enjoy the ride. My wife would never be caught on a scooter even the big ones, but this is more like the look she likes! Thanks for the video
Great info thanks. I did get my 2023 Rebel1100T DCT in Dec. I've ridden it a few times when the weather was nice. I do love it. It took me a little time to get use to the bike doing it's own thing, That might be "control issues" on my part.... But when I went out and just relaxed it was great. plenty of get up and go. I can't wait for the weather to get nice again and get out and ride. So happy I went with the rebel.. Thanks again.
Gotta be honest I really like this. Hell for the price you can't go wrong. The Honda 1100 DCT, everytime I looked at a video it was the 1000 T.. Seriously man I like the DCT 👍
I have been riding the dct for 3 years nowand personally I would switch to a clutch bike soon enough. Rebel 1100 is not comfortable enough for me and while there are changes that you an make to the bike, you are still limited as there is no aftermarket support. The issue with dct is that when you are riding if you pull the accelerator, the bike goes but as soon as you come down on the gas there is huge engine breaking in the bike, with a clutch bike this happens when you downshift however, you can control the engine breaking by holding the clutch. Also I find that taking left turns on dct is very jarring as well. This bike is powerful and although I take it easy on left turns, the bike automatically upshifts midturn which at times stalls the bike for a fraction of a second. Since there is no clutch you cannot just feather the clutch and make your turn. Also engine breaking mid turn is fucking scary to be honest. I dont think I will keep the dct, its nice to be able to ride with one hand but this bike is better suited for long highway rides but its too uncomfortable for that purpose. I dont know, just my 2 cents.
@@mikewanamaker7352 that’s correct but not by much. I believe it’s about 1K difference between the Honda NC750 DCT and the 1100 Rebel DCT. I’ve researched the cost on all those motorcycles. They need to make a DCT motorcycle in the 5K range.
@@johnstrika9170yes my friend even in dct mode this is a very big and powerful bike for a beginner. A responsible salesman will not recommend you to start with this.
You really cannot go wrong w this bike. Low seat height. Mild mannered and its a Honda. If u do not plan on doing hiway riding and more rural the XR150L is a great starter bike to.
@ShanenDanaShoemaker-wf4tr Is it too big for a beginner? I really know nothing about bikes. I just want to make sure it's automatic because no way I want to learn manual lol
No, that's not how that works. It's not like a handbrake on a car. You can actually ride with that on. It's a small brake on the back so that when you park on an incline, the bike will not roll. So if you sit on your bike, with brake on and put it in drive, you will take off. It's only there for when you park so stop rolling. BTW that's exactly my bike...I love that blue color
Just wanted to say thank you again for these reviews on the Rebels. My dream bike is and always has been an Indian Scout/Bobber. The Rebel will be my blessed learner. How long do you estimate they will last a responsible rider?
I'm looking at buying one. The only DCT experience I have is with a Super Cub and it felt a bit jerky, is it smoother on a bigger bike? It's only like $600 difference for standard and DCT so it's not gonna kill me to do standard, but I'd like to have a bike that can be ridden by a newbie if I'm unable to ride/move it for whatever reason.
Nice concept, but I'm still getting used to the automatic transmission. I personally like using the clutch, especially in slow speed turning situations.
@@johnbelculf5441 I hate chain drive as well because of the maintenance. I don't do any maintenance on my bike including cleaning the chain. How often do you have to clean and lube your chain? Thanks
You forgot one thing yes just got a cruise control, but it doesn’t have inertial measurement unit, which is a big deal. You don’t want this thing shifting as you’re going through a corner not good. The Goldwing has a unit.
Sorry I had that wrong. The rebel 1100 DCT does have a six axis lMU. It’s the NT 1100 that does not have the six axis.IMU So I hope if they’re going to sell NT 1100 DCT in the United States that they will put a six axisIMU In it .
yup. also exit hot on off ramp and hit the brakes fairly sharp and wow it downshifts. Once you explore the features, which if you ride enthusiastically it really does remember, because it will downshift or hold a gear according to how you ride. hot ride one day for 2 hours , putt the next? yes it will seem different. it's really something else if you RIDE IT. this is bike 17 for me, no newbie here. Its really ez to dial in and and have fun with. It will not be fun, and learn you if you are a very easy rider, so don't expect any learning if you do not use rpm. just grab a manual version. great value
Honda forgot that a Kruiser requires a COMFORTABLE footrest position with an open knee angle! The footrests are ugly, stick out and positioned too far back, too uncomfortable! A knockout criterion!
Still no navigation eh. And the bike is as uncomfortable in 2024 aw it was it was in 2021. Dont worry i have one, its a unique bike but damn honda makes it impossible to upgrade and this bike is shit without ergonomic upgrades
@alexneville8168 the sitting position on this bike is atrocious in my opinion. The seat is garbage, the handlebars are way out there. Plus its not easy to replace the bars coz honda uses a 1inch bar that tapers to 7/8 at the controls and its a tbw bar. There is no bar in the market like that. Closest i found was the harley reach bars which i have. honda put the mounts for the gauge cluster on the bar clamp so putting new risers in this bike is also a challenge coz you will have to fabricate something in order to accommodate a riser. Its stupid the way honda went abt this bike. I still love but only coz of dct. Otherwise i pretty much hate the bike
One thing Honda did admit is that they made the Rebel 1100 able to be up-graded, check out Life of Burch if you want to know the upgrades you can do, I followed him on his seat choice and just did 900 kilometer ride with nil sore butt or sore legs.
@rickhicks2445 i do follow life of burch and most of his videos he changes something and either some screw strips or something breaks. I have the same issues, i am currently trying to change the hamdlebars and the screw holding the guage cluster has strippped. This is like the 100th screw that has stripped on this bike. I am now going with socket bolt screws instead of the allen key ones. And i have done all the upgrades on the bike that burch has, minus one i think. Maybe i will make a video someday
@@77Friction you must be a casual rider huh? Only ride when it’s sunny and maybe several times a year? I don’t even own a car. My automatic CB750 is my daily rain or shine.
None of the Rebels is really convincing for me, the look is totally uninspired and awful. The exhaust pipe of the 1100 is a joke. The smaller ones are not agile enough, no match for the comparable Kawasakis. My Shadow has to do the job for the time being.

The best review!! I just got my 1100 a mobth ago and i love it!!
Ride safe and thank you for watching!
They need to make DCT available in the 600CC version of this. 10K is a still expensive for most 1st time riders.
NC750x also with DCT is cheaper and in the style of an ADV bike. Honda’s naked and sports bikes 4 cylinder 650 get an E-clutch.

Cool bike! I've never rode a automatic motorcycle, I need to try one of these bikes. A bit hefty tho but it is a cruiser. Great video! 👍
Thanks for watching CC! The auto shifting definitely takes some getting used to.
I love mine. First bike and its been a dream.
Big bike for a new rider, please be safe!
@rl8073 Thank you. You answered my question lol. I was curious if this is too big for a beginner
Even in dct mode this is a very big and powerful motorcycle for a beginner. Be careful out there my friend.
@@johnstrika9170yes my friend even in dct mode this is a very big and powerful bike for a beginner. A responsible salesman will not recommend you to start with this.
i dont own a motorcycle but ive been looking into them lately. yall think this is a good first motorcycle??
Good first but great would be a 500 rebel it’s cheaper an lighter

I want one so bad... will i feel uncomfortable while riding? Im concerned about the leg space, im 6'3"

I can shift next gear on the rebel faster than I can decide if I wanna shift or not
yes it is nuts

@@B1ryan23 it’s not smooth. But it is clutch free shifting. So I guess you gain some you lose some
Nice concept, but I'm still getting used to the automatic transmission. I personally like using the clutch, especially in slow speed turning situations.
You’re right. It’s a bit clunky in low speeds. But a blast on the freeway!
6200 on 750dct. 1st 3k did not use paddle shift. USE THE PADDLES & DIAL IN USER MODE. It's freaky how great it is.

I'm over 6ft and find the footpegs too high. Comments please!
Yes, if you're maybe 5'10 or taller, this bike will be cramped. Only way to make it better is to install forward controls to stretch your lets out
I’m 6 feet tall. Fit for rebel 1100?
You should be alright but I would definitely test ride it before buying one.
So?
Did you take it for a test ride?
I'm the same height and I'm wondering if it'll be comfy
The gear shifting is scary af
It has the same plastic piece that a space shuttle has. It's made out of the same plastic material, so technically not a lie. Sigh...
But we can't get something like that for $10k in Indonesia 😢
How much is it in your town?
@@emadreviews with taxes and duties, equivalent to $29k

Check out the new video on the 2024 Honda Shadow with highway pegs on the channel. Thanks for watching!
It's not a cruiser it's a commuter, made for daily driver to work and such
That’s the STUPIDEST explanation of a DCT I’ve ever heard
I found it pretty clear 🤷♀️
That exhaust looks so out of the place.
Well it sounds nice when it’s two feet away lol not when your like 20 or more
That is a nice bike
Yep felt really good to ride!

No after market support and DCT make this bike a big “No”. Too bad they discontinued the 1100 Shadow.
Looks horrible
That exhaust is uglier than home made sin.
It’s pug ugly…
“Engine straight out of the Africa Twin”…. And then dumbed down😂
I wish they would have kept the 2 air filters instead of the one on the rebel 95-100hp would have been amazing on this bike 😂
will not buy it never with single disk up front duel all the way bikes
I bet it's great! But ugly motorcycle!

Still plenty of manual bikes out there. Find what you like.
