HEAD-TURNING PERFORMANCE

Go all-in on performance, agility, and style, with the 2022 Rebel 500. The lean 471cc twin-cylinder engine and user-friendly powerband deliver enjoyment through city streets and wide-open straightaways. The wide front wheel and blacked-out engine gives it head-turning style to go with the modern innovations every rider should demand. Like optional ABS brakes. Full LED lighting package. And Honda’s slipper/assist clutch that helps make every ride more fun. The low-seat height lets you flat foot it at stoplights, while new colors for this year make it even more irresistible. Back by popular demand, the Rebel 500 ABS SE comes with some of our most popular accessories like a Black Diamond-Stitch Seat, Black Fork Boots and Covers, and a color-matched Headlight Cowl. Yes, the Rebel 500 is a no-compromises modern cruiser. And we’ve got one waiting for you.

Features may include:

• BLACKED-OUT STYLE

The Rebel is a blank canvas for your self expression and customization. But unlike the canvas you buy at the art store, this one’s not boring white. As is, its blacked-out engine pieces, frame, and bodywork elements look great during the day and even better at night.

• LOW SEAT HEIGHT

When it comes to seat heights, almost everyone likes them lower. At just 27.2 inches, the Rebel has one of the lowest seats in anyone’s lineup. It’s comfortable when you ride, and it makes it easier to flat-foot it at stoplights or in parking lots.

• SLIPPER/ASSIST CLUTCH

This technology was first developed and perfected in Honda’s racing machines. The slipper/assist clutch means you get a lighter clutch pull at the lever, but a solid lockup when you release the lever and apply power. It’s technology that reduces clutch effort at the bar by about 30 percent.

• SPORTY ENGINE

Twin-cylinder engines are a great choice for a machine like the Rebel 500. Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and the 471cc Rebel 500’s engine is one of our best ever. The parallel-twin engine is narrow, which helps reduce overall bike size. Plus, it offers lots of low-rpm torque, but plenty of higher-rpm performance.
