- I bought a 2002 Honda Rebel 250 (CMX250C) that is 20 years old, but only has 1888 miles on it. It hasn't been on public streets for more than a decade. The previous owner did take it on the occasional spin around the development. The lack of use has taken a toll on this bike, though. The chain is black with ole lube and grime. Time to give it a good cleaning and apply some wax lube.

Your videos have been a blessing. Recently got a 2009 rebel myself.
I have been following your videos to do the work on my bike as you release them.
So please keep them coming and thank you for sharing!
Glad to help! Definately more Rebel videos to come.
The more I watch your videos the more I have to do, that’s a good thing,thanks again
Glad you like them!
I just got an 04 Honda rebel this helps so much! Thank you for the video ❤️
@arincapaul9707 that's great! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. It's hard to believe these are 20 years old!
@TheFixitShed I have been thoroughly enjoying my rebel, my only complaint is the engine vibration in the foot pedals. Going to try and put some rubber washers on the bolt mounts to try and get the vibration down.
Nice vid, thanks for posting.
I have 2005 Honda Rebel 250cc, love it.
Thank you! They are fun bikes. I just picked up a 2004 that needs some work, so you can expect some videos on that coming soon.
Me too love those little bikes
I'll be doing this this weekend now. Great video!
Thank you!

@@TheFixitShed 😃thanks
How did the wax lube perform for you? I've got the same bike with the same low miles/ low use scenario.
I like it so far, I can feel that the chain is still a bit tacky, so I know the wax line is still on there, and there doesn't seem to be a buildup of grime on the chain.
I don’t have a jack is there another way I can do this?
The bike isn't too heavy, a couple people could lift it while another puts the blocks underneath, but I would recommend getting a jack I also made a video about the stand I built to keep the bike stable. It would be nice if the bike had a center stand. That would make it much easier.
