HONDA REBEL BASICS: Overview Of Controls And Getting Started

Today I'm going over the basics of the different controls you should be familiar with on your Honda Rebel 300 or 500 (or any motorcycle for that matter), as well as what to do in order to start the bike. These concepts in this quick video may be common knowledge to some, but for many brand new riders this is the cornerstone of getting started in their motorcycle riding journey! The most important thing about riding a motorcycle is making sure that you're as comfortable as possible on the bike, and the first step to gaining that comfort is making sure you're as knowledgable as possible- whether you've been riding for years or you've never thrown a leg over a bike before!

Thanks for watching, hopefully this was informational, and be sure to check out my channel for plenty of other Honda Rebel how-to's and Honda Rebel content!

This was by far the best video for beginners. Thanks for understanding the need to go basic for us beginning riders!

I’ve been riding for 50 yrs. At 72, I’m a bit weaker than l was when l started, so l bought a 2022 CMX300 Rebel in Blue. Installed a rack, a windshield and bags. Ready for short trips.

Thank you Burch! this is gonna be my first bike in April and thanks to you I have something I can study a million times over to make sure I don't embarrass myself going off the lot!

Thank you so much for this, I’m a first time rider and this is my first bike I pick up next week and I was very shy to ask a lot of these questions and you answered them all!!

[KKSlidersBro]

INSTANTLY saved this. I’m definitely gonna use this for when I get this bike. This is so incredible useful, thank you!

[donnasutter]

So helpful, I just bought a 2022 Honda Rebel 300 ABS and I’ve never been on a bike so from scratch videos are very helpful to me

[CisnerozArts]

Just bought my first bike (Honda rebel) and this is going to help me immensely. Thank you 4 years later and your still helping

[bm]

Thanks for the refresher. It's be 20 years since I had a Rebel and I'm buying a 2000 today, so this helped.

better to over explain than to underexplain. thanks for this, i really needed it dumbed down for me haha.

What a huge relief knowing no matter how hard i pull up on the shift that it wont jump from 1-3 or higher that was one of my biggest fears lol ive been so terrified of this that i honestly thought my first bike would be a eclutch or automatic bike

[takumif]

5:04 was something I always thought about! This video answered a question I didn’t even know how to ask! Thank you so much my

Just bought my 2019 300 today. Having it shipped later this week. Watching this so I don’t look like an idiot the first few rides. This is definitely different than the early 2000’s one I used using my training course!

Great vid mate - you got your target audience covered here - I'm an older rider returning after many years and plan to buy the Rebel 500, went and sat on the 2019 500 today at the showroom and at 6ft tall It felt perfect for me - not cramped at all. Great to have a run down of all the controls and feature locations - not enough of this on Youtube! Subbed and Liked!

[charlottesmom]

Been watching quite a few of your videos, I am getting my Rebel 300 in a few days, nervous as hell but watching these calms me a bit.

I know this video is 2 years old, but this actually helped a lot so please keep up the good work
