You talk faster than the motorcycle goes.

35+ years ago in Las Vegas, I bought a used 1984 Honda CM450, chain driven, 6-speed overdrive that I roved from San Diego to Dixie National Forest in SW Utah, Death Valley to North Pole AZ. Put 10,000+ miles a year on that beast while I worked up in the Nevada Sierras 4 days out of every week. I had no problem keeping up with highway traffic on a smaller, older tech bike. What’s more important than having 2 or 3 times the engine size is proper ergonomics, developing skills, road strategy, situational awareness, and wearing good gear to cut dow on fatigue, so you’re not exhausted after an hour. For example, riding inndesert or hot conditions, don’t ride with bare skin or short sleeves. Pour cold water in your helmet liner , wear a wet bandana around your neck, dampen your shirt, and wear an armored mesh riding jacket so you don’t get sun baked, dehydrated and weak. Unlike this amateur.

Really appreciate the contents! I’m new to Australia and am looking to get back to riding, your videos really help me see what it’s like! Thank you!

As a beginner rider, this video is very informational. I'm currently looking for bikes to get and the Rebel 500 seems to be the best, especially since I plan on daily riding my motorcycle to and from work, and was concerned how it would handle on the freeway (I've heard 500cc bikes struggle). This helps me solidify my decision! Definitely subbing!

I have a 2023 Rebel 500 . I can ride all day at 75 and 80 Mph with no issues. I also find the seat quite comfortable. Many find the stock seats of their bikes to need replacing.but I'm fine with it.

Us Americans say freeway AND highway. Just depends on what one you’re on

Motorway in Scotland.. just to be a (unt lol Appreciate the vid. Looking at changing from the Duke 390 to the rebel. Want something that is more comfortable to sit at higher speeds over time and does not feel like it’s baws are in a vice.

In America we also call these "Freeway"s Highways are more like 2-4 lane roads leading between towns and cities directly. Freeways have on ramps and exits.

I’m think I want to get the 500 for my first bike.

How does the 500 do over 100mph, when the 1100 is restricted to 100mph?

Is the speedo accurate <100kph?
