Love what you made with it, definitely going to take it as inspiration. Also planning to add a large high mounted front fender to really give it that scrambler look.

My Rebel 500 is currently @ 65,000 miles, with the basic service, chain, sprocket and tires. Make some fire road videos.

Thank you for taking the time to do this video, really useful and some brilliant ideas. Are you looking at putting a sump guard/bash plate on? I am thinking of getting one but that is one of my concerns. I am not looking to do hard core off road, just some gravel roads and light off road for fun but a little concerned about the pipes and sump being unprotected. Any views you have as an owner and or suggestions would be welcome.

Man Wow!🤩 You did an awesome job transforming the bike into what it should be! Love every update! Looks sharp! How do the tires do onroad? Love your videos! New follower! Looking forward to more!🤙🏽
@Purplehayes10244 ай бұрын
Thanks. The tires are good on the road. I have done hour plus drives, to get to an off road area, on them. I do feel a little vibration from them in the handle bars, but not bad and very manageable.

Thank so much for doing this. All the mods are super tasteful and rlly turn it into more of a scrambler. Do u recall which mounting bracket and bag u have for the left side?
@Purplehayes10245 ай бұрын
That bracket and mount is the OEM Honda specifically for the SCL500. I purchased it when I bought the bike and had them install it. www.partzilla.com/product/honda/08L70-MLP-AA1 www.partzilla.com/product/honda/08L05-K87-A31?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw17qvBhBrEiwA1rU9w6Xt1ryPkuuu2CgXnp0JHOAqQGsN5ne6Vm4D4dEqpJggXeMf-o8URBoCT8UQAvD_BwE

Any idea what the ammo can brackets are called? Also, great to know the main frame is the same as a rebel. Awesome bike!

Helpful video! Thanks! Is it easy to replace the break and clutch levers?
@Purplehayes10244 ай бұрын
II believe that was one of the first mods i did and was very easy.

Do you have any tips/ideas how to put a similar side bag on the right side? I would like to use a bag instead of a case to be more simetric.
@Purplehayes10246 күн бұрын
I have been looking but haven’t anyway to do it. The closest I saw was the ones for the Honda rebel, very similar, however the bracket has different width between the mounts so it won’t fit.
@kristwalstad36085 ай бұрын
Curious if you considered the cb500x when buying this bike? If so what were the reasons for choosing the SCL? Nice videos Thanks!

I was really looking for a scrambler / café racer style motorcycle. Also I had previously had a VStrom 650 and wanted a lower seat height.

Hello sir, is the clutch really that lightgoing? My screwed up handjpont can only handle really light pressure. Thank and greetings from germany. Btw: you live in a cool place, those mountains are beautiful.
@Purplehayes10244 ай бұрын
It is a pretty nice area, I came here 30 years ago for a two month visit and have been here ever since. 😂 Of the 5 motorcycles I have owned, it is the easiest and lightest clutch I have used. Be sure to check the link for the adjustable clutch I installed,
