My rebel 500 is perfect for me. At 67 just the right size not to small and not to big. I am not about speed. For what it is it does well on the interstate traveling the speed limit no problem no vibration.

@MotoMedicine904 Жыл бұрын

It is a great smooth running bike for sure. Only thing I wish that could happen is the 500 could also have the 270 degree crank like the Rebel 1100 does. Then it would have that rumble it deserves.

Hi there! Just found your channel and appreciate you sharing your mods. I have a 2020 Rebel 500 and can only get to 21/23 mph in first. Is it possible that your front sprocket was changed by the previous owner? How many teeth does yours have?

Is it tuned different than the 500r and 500f seems to pull much harder

@MotoMedicine904 3 жыл бұрын

The state of tune is slightly different according to Honda. They aimed to make the Rebel have a broader/flatter range of torque.

is there like a tuning for rebel 500?

@MotoMedicine904 2 жыл бұрын

Not really. There is the Power Commander Fuel Controller but it does not modify ignition timing like the Power Commander V. It's just to modify fuel. Not really needed unless you run a catless header and exhaust in my opinion.

@stephenoreilly 3 жыл бұрын

Man - you got a very bad habit of leaving your indicators on after you make a turn. Could get you into serious trouble some day. Take care.

@MotoMedicine904 3 жыл бұрын

I wouldnt say it's a habbit. Watch my other videos and you'll see this was never an issue until I got the Rebel.. The one thing that irritates me about this bike is the indicator switch button is soft and you'll think you've pressed it in all the way but it hasnt.

@DustinTavo 3 жыл бұрын

Love the mod that keeps your turn arrows flashing so you notice your speedo better. Also that guy that pulls on you when you lane split is a dick. Hate when people do that. Totally unnecessary.

Absolutely. In my opinion I would skip the 300 all together. The 500 is docile enough to begin on and has the extra oomph you'll need for longer distances at higher speeds.

@MotoMedicine904 3 жыл бұрын

If its hitting the rev limiter in 6th gear at 70mph I would say that's not right at all. You physically can't even reach the limit of 6th gear on this bike because it doesn't have the power to do so. The theoretical top speed is near 120mph before the gearing just can't go any further. Problem is the bike can't push thru the wind due to power.

@theriotverse6905 3 жыл бұрын

@@MotoMedicine904 maybe I just haven’t finished breaking it in yet. I’m a new rider and I’m not used to how the revs sound at 70mph (they’re pretty loud). Kinda wish this bike had a tach on it lol I love the bike just worried about breaking something on it lol

@MotoMedicine904 3 жыл бұрын

This bike revs out to 8500rpm. It's capable of exceeding that but honda didn't see a need for it as the power drops after that. Honda has been in the business of powersports for a long long time. I wouldn't be worried you'll break something. The rev limiter is there to make sure you dont.
