New HONDA

Bold, stripped-back and unmistakably Rebel
The CMX500 Rebel brings custom-bike attitude to everyday riding, with a low-slung stance, twin-cylinder character, A2 licence compatibility and a style that's entirely its own.

Round TFT display with Honda RoadSync
Everything you need, at a glance 
The new round TFT display gives the Rebel a clean, modern cockpit while keeping key riding information clearly in view. With Honda RoadSync, you can connect your smartphone for convenient access to navigation, calls, messages and music.

Honda E-Clutch
Seamless shifts, effortless control

Honda E-Clutch delivers smooth, precise gear changes without the need to operate the clutch lever, while still giving you full manual control when you want it.

Assisted slipper clutch
Easy gear changes, smoother control 

The assist/slipper clutch makes the clutch lever lighter and gear changes easier, particularly around town. It also helps keep things composed when shifting down through the gears.

471cc parallel twin
Smooth power with serious character 

The 471cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine delivers 34kW of peak power and 43.3Nm of torque at 6,000rpm. The result is strong, smooth mid-range performance that makes every ride feel engaging without being intimidating.

Full LED lighting
Classic shaped modern lights
The Rebel's iconic circular headlight keeps its unmistakable character while four LED bulbs bring a crisp, contemporary finish. Matching LED indicators and a slim oval taillight complete the look.

41mm front forks
Corner with confidence
The 41mm telescopic front forks are designed to give you controlled, compliant handling. At the rear, new bump-stop rubbers help absorb bigger impacts for a smoother ride.

A2 licence compatible
A2-friendly with full-size attitude
With its A2-compatible engine, the CMX500 Rebel gives newer riders access to genuine twin-cylinder character, while offering plenty for more experienced riders to enjoy.

Street Custom Cool
Low. Lean. Unmistakably Rebel.
The Rebel takes the classic bobber silhouette and gives it a distinctly modern edge. Fat tyres, a low-slung stance and a steeply raked 11.2L fuel tank create its unmistakable profile, while the exposed tubular steel frame becomes part of the design. At just 690mm, the low seat height makes it easy to reach the ground, giving you a secure feeling at stops. The relationship between the handlebars, seat and footpegs also puts you in a natural, upright riding position.

The circular headlight, compact indicators and distinctive 2-1 exhaust complete a stripped-back look that's made to be seen — especially with you on it.

Ride with confidence
Easy to ride. Hard to ignore.
The Rebel's low-slung chassis, neutral steering and 690mm seat height make it approachable from the moment you get on. At walking speeds, its proportions help make maneuvering feel effortless, while the upright riding position gives you a clear, confident connection to the bike.

Add the smooth response of the parallel-twin engine and easy-going assist/slipper clutch, and you have a motorcycle that's as enjoyable to ride through town as it is when the road opens up.
