Hello from Japan!
I'm also doing a fenderless custom rebel, but I was very surprised by the exact same method!
I came up with this method last month and customized it, but the video of the poster was 4 years ago!
That's excellent! I should have watched this video sooner!
dude your bike is the reason im looking into getting one, love the look of this thing.
Right! It just looks cool, and lots you can do to it, def not the fastest but its got a nice design and enough power for most people plus a modern engine so I dont have to fuck with carbs and all that,
Looks good but I'm guessing this won't be a rainy day bike, back spray time.
Yeah sunny days only, unfortunately not many of those currently :(
Man I'm glad i found your channel. I've had my mind set on the rebel for my first bike. You just motivated me even more. Your videos are very helpful/easy to watch.
awesome! glad you found me! such a great bike you will love it!
I got one 2019 rebel 500 runs great and not a lot of money new and a good entry level bike easy to ride.
I chose Harley Davidson Sporster 48 for my first bike. The rebel was in close race for choice though.
10:19 “one small package kind of exactly what i wanted”… said no woman ever!!!
You did this so professionally, I’m very satisfied 😂 super impressive
Thank you!! 😁
Man that bike is looking sweeter every time I see it 🤙 and those blinkers are something else so freaking cool
Yeah its coming along awesome, I really like the looks of it!
I would be curious to see what it looks like with that mini fender, not sure if I like the fender-less look or not. Nice video as always, solid explanation and engineering
Mini fender doesn't look terrible, but not what I wanted to go for, maybe ill slap it up there some vid so you can see
@@EvilNeil187 yes please 😁😁
EN187 that would be awesome if you did. I’ve been looking into buying one but would rather see an install video first before I pull the trigger on buying it.
@@EvilNeil187 way better fenderless raw extreme batman bike kinda feel😎
a custom fender would look cool to so it can do rain riding, but it's all good as it's like customizing a a car, it's all in the flavor of the ones teast
a small one would be nice, I am looking, something real low key, but yeah def gettin wet right now if I get caught in the rain LOL
Looks much better without the rear fender, completely changed the look of the bike, what a clean set up 😎 🤙🏻
my first bike is going to be a rebel 300 I’m getting it in a few days and this will be one of the first mods thanks for the help.
I found just those brackets on eBay so I’m thinking about snagging those to have that fender deleted
This simple little mod makes me think a lot more about picking up a REBEL
Bro, youre making it so damn hard on me not riding. Gotta heal up faster and get insurance off their ass and replace my gear. Bikes lookin fire. Cant wait to roll up there and check her out.
Man heal up! Whats the ETA till your back in action? Sucks man hope you heal up AHREALLLLL quick!
@@EvilNeil187 im hoping only a couple more weeks till i feel good enough to ride, but im still waiting on insurance to replace my riding gear.
clean bike brother, i was looking into a ninja 400 but a rebel 500 is just screaming for me more and more
get that new 1100cc rebel!
To those complaining bout the rain i say screw the front and even rear fenders bobs looks raw and just plain badass & post apocalyptic without em …..in rain keep it above 50mph and you’ll have nothing to worry about just invest in a good leather jacket and shower if u ever get caught unexpectedly and move over to the left or right to avoid front splash…. full face helmets helps too and if u wana reduce spray a bandana helps if u tie it off the front forks…:) later
Loool fuk, I did this and connected all the wires and my speedometer and LED tail lights won't come on now. Help. ._. ( Edited) Nevermind. Just blew a fuse . Must have crossed wires on something. Thank you for making a thorough walkthrough of this modification. Helped A LOT.
glad you got it figured out! I think I popped a fuse when I did it too lol dont let them wires touch! haha
Damn I used the link and bought the same kit and the brackets they sent me are one piece!
That looks like an awesome, fun scoot dude!
Its a blast, nice change of pace from the z1000 or z125
Also I would have stuck that tiny fender on simply because when it rains you're going to get more water on your back then you will on the rest of your torso combined lol
yup you will def get wet if it rains or you ride through water, but I dont like the look of the fender and its not the look I was going for...
Lookin good boi. I need to get my wife a set of those blinkers and tail lights. Look dope af
They are super bright def help get drivers attention with a ton of programmable flash patterns plus sleek styling.
What clamps were used on the front turn signals?
Make a video of the wiring specifically. I’m about to do this myself
I'd like to see your back when it rains.
Because riding in the rain you can only get wet while riding without a rear fender? Or do you ride with an umbrella? Lol
Thank you for you video. without it i would not be able to remove mins and put on my short rear fender!!!
Well thanks I learned how to take that stuff apart back there.
Glad it helped!
This looks so good, but having to spend 200$ on a fender kit just to get those brackets needed to mount the seat is BALLS.
agreed, i dunno if they sell just brackets yet, but when I made this video that was the only way unless you wanted to chop up your stock fender
@@djlancer88 How dare . Many late. but ty.
How good does that look now 😃
You should check out K-Speed. They have a ton of custom rebel parts and they look sick
I have seen, I have heard they are kinda cheaply made, That tail kit I got to do the fender delete is from them and I would have to agree, fitment was ok, required a little work... The actual plastic fender that I didn't put on that came with the kit looked alright but still cheaply made / looking
I like these buy not sure if it has the balls for freeway speeds in Texas
I usually (in my car) cruise at about 80 mph
I don’t think I want to try that on this little bike but just wondering if you could let me know does it cruise comfortably at atleast 70?
I did a video on this, it will do 80 easy no problem, had it up to 92 but backed off cuz it was still brand new I will have to do a top speed run soon now that I have my 1st oil change done and over a 1000 miles on it
106 down a hill full tuck on the way out of Dallas, Tx
Easily cruises 80+
I see the front fender waving bye bye in the near future!
open front ya think? I want white walls like yesterday lol
Do they make the stick on kind for bikes? My buddy has a set for his street rod that he got from Tirestickers.com or something like that and they look real.
Want to know is this kit can install back seat and sissy bar?
I want a short rear fender style and sissy bar on my rebel 500.
Def not the rear fender kit that's sold online and I used in this video will not support the weight of someone
Did you install a relay? All of the LED installations I have seen have "hyper-flash" because of the lowered draw of the LED lights in comparison to the incandescent bulbs. Are the X-Arc blinkers different in some way?
Yes I installed a relay, I have an install video on that
So will the muffler/passenger foot peg mount attach to those aftermarket brackets? I have a slip on that uses it. Thanks.
Yes it will
Yeah it looks good but you can't drive it on the rainy day... all muds goes to your back shirt that kind of messy
Very true, but I make it a point not to ride on rainy days
Super glad I found your channel love your how to videos
Thanks so much! More coming soon! Really loving how the rebel is coming together!
Ooh baby this is something I might do
Very clean mod, do you know where I can get the wiring harness on its own so that I don't have to cut the one that comes with the fender? I've seen several, just don't know if I need to get a specific one for the rebel.
I am not sure the exact connector harness it needs but some googling might find that
New rider here - maybe dumb question: issues with mud/rocks/rain no fender riding?
Looks pretty trick now!
Thanks!
Man, i would DEFINITLY replace that stock seat with a Mustang Tripper seat or something before you go sliding off backwards by accident and SIT on that rear tire going 15 or 20 miles an hour....LMAO.
On brighter sunny days, do you find the rear lights to be bright enough to actually be seen by other drivers? My biggest fear is that I'll replace them and people aren't going to see them and im just gonna get rear ended🤦🏽♂️ we all know how much people pay attention when driving nowadays lol
yes the high tech speed xarcs are extremely bright even in direct sunlight! they are more pricey but worth every penny you will not be disappointed!
Fender delete kit=because fuck it, if I get caught in the rain might as well get a muddy back as well. 😂
yeah f rain,
@@EvilNeil187 little rain can't bring me down!
So I'm concerned about something o.o.... After doing this modification, I notice a little more heat from the rectifier under the seat. Not sure if that's normal due to less load from the LED lights VS the original lights, or if the position of the new brackets changed the position of the rectifier, causing the heat to be more noticeable or what. What is too hot? For example, after riding for maybe 5+ minutes i notice some warmth IN MAH BUTT. Not super hot, seems to stay the same temp, doesn't get hotter, but many concerns... many... concerns...
using these same lights? nothing like that here so im not sure
@@EvilNeil187 No, I'm using a single LED strip with turn signals+ brake+ running lights in it,,, and 2 LED tag lights.
Excellent job it looks fantastic 👏
Thanks I really like how its turning out
Looks tight ASF🤘
Looks super clean man 👌
Clean and mean!
How are you illuminating the license plate
Any update on if you can just buy those brackets? 200 is a lot of money for some brackets 😂
havent looked since I did this but if someone isnt selling them by now someone should!
@@EvilNeil187 for sure! I can’t find any being sold yet
Is that a shrink wrap you used for the end of the protruding part of the signals lights? You said something about a vacuum to neat it up u I’m not sure what it is?
yeah heat shink wrap and some little black rubber end caps
Anywhere I could buy the brackets alone? Not looking to spend 200 for an entire kit.
I'm trying to install a aftermarket product to my Honda rebel, it requires access to the indicator lights and the brake lights harness, is the brake lights harness and the indicator lights harness located under the seat?
Yes, should all be shown in this video!
Not a bike I ever plan to have, but this popped up,and I'm watching it in disbelief... Honda, no wonder you have so many regulator issues, those fins are there for a reason...cooling...why enclose it to overheat???
It looks way better with the fender, I don't really understand why some people like it without it.
Bobber style fam! Thats the look I wanted!
Thanks - really useful video!
Glad it helped!
this video is good And can i know where i live on the short rear bracket? I can't find it on eBay or Amazon.
That looks slick man!
I really like how it changes the look of it! Im startin to love this lil bike!
EN187 I was pretty convinced before your video series but now I’m totally convinced one of these will follow me home soon.
for the price its a great bike, even if your a seasoned rider its still fun!
u needed a relay or no? and if so mind linking to what one(s) you used? Also do cops have a problem with the plate location? Looks sick bro for sure.
Looks amazing!!!
Thanks!
I was wondering how did you get the mirrors under your handlebars, I like to do that to my 2019 500 rebel
check out my drag bar install video I show how I put em on
thanks I will
Damn I was hoping this’d be a little easier lol
Its pretty easy really, just take your time, nothing really you can mess up
Sorry, by easier, I meant on my wallet. 😂
It’s all easy work otherwise, except the soldering but I’ll just use butt connectors and heat shrink
You can def do it free pretty much if you cut the stock fenders, I just wanted to keep it intact incase if I sold the bike someone wanted it to put their bitches on back hahahaha
Yeah, that’s the same reason I have. Idk if you’ve seen, but my fender is painted to match the rest of the bike. Idk if I could justify cutting it up just yet
agreed, someone needs to just make and sell brackets for like 80$
Watched this to figure out whether the rear fender is part of the frame, because German TÜV is a b*tch, hence, mods on this usually are pain in the a$$, but thanks for clearing this out. Might actually start this (with the exact same fender you denied btw).
Anyway, nice job!
This that zip tie holding that plasic piece still holding up
I worked till I made a customer piece for the plate holder check my video on that
Hell yes my friend!!
Oh yeah!
Now that it’s… 2 years later, can I purchase the bracket by itself ? Just purchased this as my first bike and LOVE the look of yours
What did you end up doing for the plate?
I have the same bike and love this look you’ve given it. With Xarcs, is there one per package or if I order one pack it’s the two?
they are two per package
I did it it looks amazing you can say some money and just buy the brackets on eBay $85
With the new brackets, can you put the stock bracket on that holds the stock exhaust?
yup!
[EDIT/Recomment: Sorry this is the video I meant to send this comment to, and not the your plate lights video]
Hello again,
would love to maybe do this to my future rebel. Although I don't have any experience to wiring and soldering. Do have a video where you actually solder the tail lights. Or possibly a detailed video of you soldering the plate lates?
I got a bit confuised when you breifly mentioned what wires to use when adding the plate lights lol.
If not, do you recommend a "plug and play" product that comes close to your DIY project?
Do you know if the x arc bolts fit into the stock fender? Im thinking of using them as my brakelight and blinkers, getting rid of the ugly brick and mounting the lights on the stock fender however I'm not sure if its the same bolt.
you could probably run it through the hole and it would be fine, im not 100 on that tho, if not just drill a new hole
@@EvilNeil187 Did you end up using the risers for the handlebars?
im gonna do this buut just need the parts to be back in stock
gunna be awesome!
@@EvilNeil187 how do you think i can get a shorty rear fender while also having enough room for a passenger seat? My gf still wants to ride but i hate the stock rear fender
Hi from malaysia.. cool rear fender...😎
Hey, thanks!
Hey, how are you doing man?
I want to shortened a little bit the rear fender until the bolt of the rear passenger. So my question is, do you think that this cut could affect the structural strength? Because I carry people once in a while and I want to know if this could be dangerous
I think the plate is fine where it is.
yeah I ended up making a more permanent mount for it with plate lights, put a vid up on it but it looks clean!
Please reply. So when you get those brackets, do they also allow you to keep the mount for the pegs and exhaust?
yes!
Im 6 foot 1 and 160lb. Could i buy this bike for commute and touring? If not, what other bike would you suggest that is similar in terms of style and size?
for sure no problem, im 6'2 187lbs rides fine for me!
can you put the second seat with the smaller fender on?
no it cannot support the weight of a person
What’s the widest rear tire you can fit on these bikes with the rear fender off?
Looks better with backend, but that’s just my taste :))
Would the mini fender be strong enough to support a passenger seat?
No def not, its just plastic
looks good!!
Thanks!
Eu quero uma Honda Rebel!!!!!!
Mas aqui no Brasil não vende!😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
Man it's hard not to copy you but I love my sissy bar
What clamps did you use to mount the front turn signals to the forks?
Should be linked in the blinker install video, moved them around a few times so there are a few blinker videos
Where can I find the plastic piece you’re removing, at 2:55?
you need that part? Its a honda part, you would have to look up the PN and order it from a dealer I would think.
Would a wider tire fit back there?
Are you using these turn signals as running and brake light also?
correct the x-arc duos do running, brake and blinker lights in one
Would this work for a honda rebell 1100 dct (sorry Im a total noobie)
Hell yea 👍🏻
Woo woo! Just updated with all the links to what I used!
Link for the bracket that you had ??
I'm getting a honda rebel soon and I'm thinking about doing this.. and this is probably a dumb question but how bad do you think this would be in the rain or even not in the rain like will water/debris hit you in the back?
Great question. I'm curious about this as well.
Ya, that's really a dumb idea. I've done it before and after seeing my jacket in the back after I got off the bike after about 100 miles, my jacket had a nice big streak of dirt right up the middle. You'll feel it after the first set spot on the road or anything that's lose that yourun over. Forget about just wearing a t-shirt. You may as well throw it in the garbage after you ride. running without a front fender is dumb, but no rear fender is just as stupid. There's a reason they put fenders on a bike.
True it’s only a good idea if you live in a dry majority city with not a lot dirt like LA for example cause riding on anything other than asphalt or concrete like u said will get u dirty
Do you think this will work on a 2022 500?
Nice
thanks!
What handlebars are those? Can I get a link?
Check out my drag bar install video, covers everything, all links in description of that video. czcams.com/video/fKAbzSDBQqY/video.html&lc=Ugyyr89xxsijSu9p99V4AaABAg
Dope.
Thanks man!
Can I do this with a 1100?
but where can you moznt the 2nd seat
there is no 2nd seat on this
EN187 do you think it would be possible to do a custom seat and mount it to the black bar behind the seat?
I mean anything is possible, but if you wanna run a 2nd seat, I would just leave the rear fender on...
The name of those brackets bro 😅❤
Will this work for an 1100?
