Sharp looking bike. Stunning! It's a Testament to how long Hondas will last, and how well they will continue to run, if you take care of them. ❤️
Hey Ken cool lil bikes! I was working at the local Honda Dealership as a Honda Tech when these hit the showroom!...they sold for $1,295.00 then! Lol! This one is for sure clean! Great find!
I was obsessed with this bike when I was a teenager, first, it’s not as huge as the harleys or the typical cruisers, second it’s cheap, fourth it looks good and lastly it’s reliable. Unfortunately cheap as it was, I still can’t afford it back then. It’s the best one if you just want to ride a small cruiser or don’t really into speed but you want to look good on wheels.
Hi guys;I have an 05 Rebel ,with 2000 miles on it. It looks brand new. I m older, so I couldn't ride the bike ,it was too heavy.I bought it brand new in 95. Now that was a beautiful bike too. I traded my Suzuki 800 interceptor, on this. Traded even,for this,and the dealer in California, was delivering,another bike in New York, so they dropped mine off, and made that delivery. When they were going back, they picked my old bike. It was on dealership floor 3 days,and it sold. The dealership called me ,and said ,the customer loves it. Nicest bike they ever had. Glad both of us got nice bikes, and will have a nice home.
My father has one of these ‘85 Rebels sitting in the garage that has been stored since around ‘89. Mint condition! Maybe I can bully him into getting it running again 😅
Anyone should be proud to have such a fine bike!
Super clean. Those bikes run good.
I am 6" and I think I may just wing it. Nice bike to learn with. You made me realise I should get one.
My '18 V Star 250 was in the same beautiful shape when I bought it two years ago! A bit bigger and torqueier than the Honda with a V-Twin. But both are nice bikes for noobies or those of us that are returning to riding after decades. Muscle memory does fade folks! Anyway, like this one, it just needed a good cleaning and the usual service. Reliable and fun, no matter which one you pick. I've been seeing a lot more smaller bikes around here this season. They seem happy with their choices and smile when We see each other. Generally, bikes bring out the good in people. A person in a good mood is a friendlier person! Bikes...goooodaha.
That reminds me of taking my motorcycle license test. Thats what they would give to people in the school who didnt have their own bike. All the d.c. cops had them also.
That was my friend's wife's first bike in similar color, but I don't remember the year.
It was from late 90s or early 2000s
Believe me or not, you can do decent wheelies on that thing LMAO
When I was younger and stupid I laughed at those bikes, but now I can really appreciate the design and profile of that little cruiser.
It really looks good and replicates a nice cruiser.
Timeless design it is, looks better than some of the newest cheaply made cruisers with a lot of black cheap plastic.
I would love to mess around on that bike lol
I love that classic Honda wing on the tank, looks gorgeous.
Perfect starter bike for anyone wanting to learn how to ride. They use these specifically at DMV approved first time riders school. They're bullet proof
I've seen the MSF Beginner courses use these and the V Star 250 like mine. Being a rusty returning rider after some 50 years outta the saddle, at 68, these bikes fit like a glove.
My first bike was a 1986 Rebel 250.... Bought it used in '93; q great beginner bike and lots of fun!
If I ever get a bike I want this to be my first
Very Nice👍
Great Video! Thank You for Sharing
Candy Paint and Chrome all around! I have a 2015 Rebel in pristine condition and I agree they are going to be collected as new bikes skip out on the chrome & paints are flat!
Just like cars today..Where did the chrome and color go?!? When I was a kid TV was black and white, but the cars were color. Now we have TV in HD color, But the cars are black and white! 🤷♂️
I have always wanted to put that engine in CB125TD with double carbs and hotter cam. Bottom end fits straight in.
That may be the slowest I've seen Kaplan America go on a motorcycle.....👍
Beautiful machine
I want one!!
clean 👍🗿
I learned in this bike ❤️❤️
As for someone wanting a city commuter, These are perfect and it's a "real bike", not a "scooter"! But it wIll get scooter like MPGs if you don't push it! I love Rebels! (and I'm 6'1" 220 Lbs!) LOL.
Cool, I have a Rebel Limited in that condition.
MashahAllah nice bike ..
Bad ass. Do you think if I roll with this into them Harley boys, they let me their hell's angel club?
So many people start on these bikes!
I bought two 1986 Rebels brand new. The first one was destroyed when a drunk driver parked on top of it two months after I bought it. Unfortunately, I was riding it at the time.
It even sounds nice! My quad has a copy of this engine. Great motorcycle, how much is it?
I have a 1985 Honda rebel 250 with 2477 miles on it
That little bike makes you look like sasquatch on a motorcycle 😂
I have an 85 Rebel that I ride and love. Same color but I'm working on the rust on the spokes and some other parts of the chrome. Any tips please share...thanks love your rebel she's BEAUTIFUL
How much did you get yours for I got mine with 12k miles on it , you k ow how long this bikes will last ?
I would really like to find one here in Thailand. I currently have a Honda Phantom, assembled in Thailand, which I am delighted with.
Is the engine of the rebel 250 the same of the Nighthawk 250?
Nice and clean guys I know will say their
bike is dirty I look say " Where ? "
Just bought a mint condition 87
My mother has a black 86 450cc rebel that she's garage kept for about 18 years now. it has 13 thousand miles on it and will need some clean up for sure... but she was experienced when she got this and took great care of it. Anyone have any clue what its worth?
Hey guys i am 186cm tall and can someone suggest a site or a list or something where i can check bikes that are suitable for me?
I have a 2005 rebel 250 and it doesn’t stay running unless. I keep the choke on almost the whole way. Had all kinds of work done to it and now I am having problems any suggestions? On what I can try to fix it?
Thanks
Have a professional micro drill the pilot Jets ...If they don't know what I'm talking about they're not a professional
Curious. How much did you sell that beauty for?
Love your videos
They are great bikes to ride I had a cmx 250 converted to single seat loved it gave it to a guy his car burnt and I gave him the bike but he passed away never used it they had a starter problem my son sent a pic of it it's a bit of a mess but Im going to get it back if I can and do it up make it look new again when people heard it coming they though it was a big Harley but we're shocked to see the bike but it looks good too that red bike is a real credit to the woman keeping it like that and yes worth heaps for an old bike mine was a 1986 has mods and mod plates fitted when I brought it for 1100 Aus dollars done up I would get 5000 to 6000 maybe more
On that bike.
Kinda big for that ride ..😊
Amigo cual es el color exacto de esta moto? Tengo una 1985 y quiero pintarla exactamente de ese color
I'm your height. Maybe it's from my perspective, or lack of being around motorcycles, but I think you make it look tiny.
It looks very small 😂 like a mini
Beautiful bike. Can't go wrong with a Honda cruiser.
