  • In search for the best beginner cruiser motorcycle, I decided to buy the 2020 Honda Rebel CMX500. After a month, here are the first 3 modifications I added to the Rebel 500.
    0:00 - Ride YEG Intro
    0:19 - Dart Classic Flyscreen (Light Tint)
    1:00 - Yoshimura R34 Exhaust
    2:15 - Yoshimura Low DB Baffle Insert
    3:13 - Spools for Cargo
    4:08 - Rear Stand Considerations
    4:39 - Future plans & Exhaust Sound Outro
    The Vulcan and Bolt are fantastic bikes with more power and highway capability, but I think for urban riding around town the Rebel 500 wins it.
    Let me know what you think of the Honda Rebel in the comments, and please subscribe to join our growing community!
    Ride safe.

    What are your favorite mods on the Rebel 500? Let me know👇

      I was happy with the Hepco&Becker engine guard that I got. It is the only one I know that wraps around the engine as opposed to "wings" flaring out. I also fitted a SW Motech bracket on the left side that allows me to latch on a SW Motech Legend bag. I am still thinking about a good exhaust but your Yoshimura does look nice. Your consideration for the paddock stand is a good one. I am still on the fence about an upsweep exhaust and how it may limit my options for a right side luggage system. Lastly, I'm not sure there is any way to make a pillion comfortable on the Rebel so I just decided to do away with it and replace it with an old look simple rack to give it a little more "bobber" feel.

      @@oscarbadiola2039 Your plans for customizations sound really solid! Would be awesome to stay updated on your progress - do you have an Instagram?
      As for the Yoshimura exhaust just keep in mind that the colour of the bike makes a huge difference with how it looks as a whole.

    That exhaust with the insert has perhaps the best sounding tone and volume I think I've heard here on YT with the possible exception of Scorpion. Thinking about getting a Rebel 500 with either that Yoshimura or the Scorpion exhaust which also sounds amazing....plus it's black! If this Yosh came black and with the low volume insert that would be huge.

    • @RideYEG
      @RideYEG  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I totally agree with you! I'll have to check out the Scorpion as well but I felt like trying Yoshimura since I've been pretty loyal to Akrapovic for my last few bikes!

      @dustytriumph 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@RideYEG Just got a 2021 SE version 2 weeks ago. First bike for this old noob. I'm back watching this and other exhaust vids. For sometime now even before getting my Rebel I've been really wanting the Miller exhaust. I think it's the absolute best looking and possibly sounding as well for the the Rebel but in this video you raise good point about being able to use a rear stand for chain maintenance etc.... The Miller exhaust has more of a 'cruiser' sound as well as look that matches the Rebel perfectly and still has great pops and crackles on deceleration. Tho this Yosh has a sports bike sound and look it really sounds great in your vid here. Tempting me still. Besides the premium price plus the insert the only thing that hangs me up about this is the aesthetics. The color, shape and huge logo. The color does look great on your bike. Mine is the matte black and that can would relate to nothing else on my bike.

    • @RideYEG
      @RideYEG  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@dustytriumph Thanks for following up! All excellent points, I’m really curious to hear your thoughts on the Miller exhaust if you do end up getting it. And you’re absolutely right about the Yoshimura, I think they went in the wrong direction with the aesthetics especially for cruisers. That was something I was pretty concerned about but I lucked out on the color with my bike.
      Ride safe on that new 500🙏

    Hi, I just bought this bike. And your exhaust modification with that silencer is exactly what I’m looking for. But does that exhaust help with any of the performance of the bike? Does it help with anything like acceleration? Torque? And what about fuel? Mpg any better? Other than looks and noise level what other did it to the bike? Anyways thanks!

    Thanks

    • @RideYEG
      @RideYEG  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think it's one of the most balanced bikes on the market. Nimble and quick on accelerations and it can easily handle 100-120km/h. I much prefer acceleration over top speed as well✌️

      It deflects it a tiny bit. Great for city or short highway rides, but you might need something taller for longer touring rides. I bought it mainly for the look, and also have a Piranha blackout one from dart I’ll be making a video on too.
