Core features that matter on real rides

Six-speed + slipper clutch

A six-speed manual transmission paired with a slipper clutch helps smooth out aggressive downshifts and keeps the bike feeling composed when you’re rolling into corners or slowing for traffic.

Exceptional handling feel

The Rebel’s layout is designed to feel light and predictable—helpful for newer riders and appreciated by experienced riders who want an easy bike for city streets and coastal routes.

Low seat height

With a listed seat height of 27.2 inches, the Rebel 500 ABS is built to inspire confidence at stops and during slow-speed maneuvers—especially around town.

LCD instrument cluster

A modern LCD cluster keeps key info clear at a glance while matching the Rebel’s modern-classic vibe—clean, simple, and easy to read on bright San Diego days.

Narrow overall width

A slim profile helps the Rebel feel manageable in parking lots and on tight city streets, while also contributing to a comfortable reach to the ground.

Roomy rider triangle

The seating position is designed to feel natural for a wide range of riders—great for commuting comfort and longer weekend loops.

Blacked-out style

A dark, minimalist finish and all-black exhaust keep the look modern and aggressive—easy to personalize with accessories over time.
