  • I’ve been having so much fun on the Honda Rebel 250. It’s not the fastest bike in the world but if you’re on a budget or new to riding, this is a great motorcycle. This bike is so underrated. Leave a like and subscribe for more videos. Goal is to hit 1,000 subs by the end of this year.

    Mhm... He crosses unbroken lines, doesn't use his turn signal half the time, and he blew through every stop sign he saw. He isn't a safe rider. No body should ever ride a bike like this. You increase the likelihood you will get hit by a car. Riders, please stay safe.

      But the guy that wrote the comment is right. The major reason there are so many motorcycle fatalities is mostly because of motorcycle drivers who are not safe.
      And most motorcycle accidents statistically don't even involve other vehicles so you can't blame the traffic.

      Yep. It's stuff like this (and especially the weaving in and out of traffic between cars (between lanes) that still makes me angry when I see those motorcycle bumper stickers: "Look twice. Save a life. Motorcycles are everywhere."
      Yeah, why don't you try not driving like someone with a deathwish and then remind the rest of us to be safe.

    Just wanted to take a sec and thank you for your videos. Not just this one, but the training videos on shifting and clutch. I just bought an 05’ Rebel and it’s been extremely helpful having your videos for reference. I was not feeling confident when I bought it. I really got a good idea of how the engine was going to act once I finished watching. Just took it to the gas station for the first time after gathering up the nerve watching your tutorials. So thanks a lot. I appreciate you taking the time to help educate people.

    When it comes to mogul cruiser motorcycles, the Rebel 250 ain't no exception. It just feels like a dope beginner's bike if wanting to live like a badass for the first time in your life.

    A bike that remained unchanged over three decades is not what I'd class as underrated. It was a very popular bike for many years, and is still wanted.
    It is old, with a carb, mechanical drum rear brake, simple suspension and a very small frame... But it fit a market.
    It delivered as much HP at the redline as the RE 350 does today.

    I had a Honda 250cc Rebel back in 1988 or so but only traded for it and sold it very quickly. Now I am old (70) and want another 250cc Rebel just to have something to ride once in a while. Can you tell me how buzzy or how bad the vibrations are at 60 to 65 MPH? I have a deal cooking on a 2007 model which appears to be in very good shape for $1700. Thanks.

    THe bike does get its share of critique. The Honda Nighthawk used the exact same Parallel Twin engine also and its considered a real motorcycle. My 2015 Rebel is beautiful and a flickable handling machine that corners great. Would i Trade for a 750lb Harley that turns like the Titanic ? Not gonna happen.😁 .😎 Cool title for this video.

      The so called Rebel 300 and 500 are absolute JUNK, and the UGLIEST motorcycles I have ever seen in my life, no matter what brand or age. They are hideous. Those things are why I bought a brand new 2016 Rebel 250 (at a significant discount from a dealer who was seriously overloaded with them) after owning and selling an '85, '99, and '04. I will be keeping the 2016 forever. I have 3 much larger bikes, but I just love the little Rebel 250.

      IMHO the 250 is a much nicer looking bike. The newer 300/500 have a very industrial look to them - the whole engine area looks like a water pump. Ugly as sin IMHO.
