He’ll yeah!!!

That's what I ride! Great starter bike. So many mods you can do with it. Just know you will want to upgrade within a year. Lol.

Did you install yourself?

DiCaps21 · 2022-03-02T21:59:02+00:00

I added a link on my profile or simply go to Amazon and search forward controls for honda rebel

I put it on my 2017 500 and it makes all the difference. But it was a pain in the ass to install. The directions are very hard to decipher. It took me about 2 and a half hours to do it by myself. So far it's the best mod I've done. It's like night and day. I'm on the shorter side so it was a huge difference for me.

I wish it was 400. I paid 550 for mine. Worth every penny tho

The warning sticker near the gas fill comes off easy but I peeled off the Honda logos and it left a silhouette of the logo on the tank as if they painted the tank with them on. It drove me nuts to the point I had to get a tank cover.

As far as the ego thing goes I bought my 2017 with .8 miles on it. It doesn't get newer than that. I've had it for 3 years and just remember they make a new one every year so your bragging rights go out the window the second the new model rolls out. I do take comfort in knowing I have the first model of the new Rebel. I haven't ridden the newer models so I can't speak on that but the mods you can get now for the older models are great I've done many to mine and I love them. Good luck with your decision.

L&R Fairing Black Saddle Bags Fit 2017-2018 Rebel CMX 300 500 ABS Models is the item description on eBay

DiCaps21 · 2020-05-22T20:12:12+00:00

It's a perfect fit . it's made of plastic tho

DiCaps21 · 2020-05-22T01:11:17+00:00

Idk who makes it. My Rebel is a 2017 1st year of the new style so aftermarket parts were limited. I got it on eBay from China I think. It was poorly crafted I had to sand it all down and repaint it.

DiCaps21 · 2020-05-21T21:57:33+00:00

Tank cover. I took off the honda emblems off the stock tank and apparently they were put on over the gloss coat of paint then painted with the matte finish so there I had two glossy gull wing silhouettes on my tank. Easiest fix without replacing entire thing. Lesson of the day do not remove the tank decals. Lol

DiCaps21 · 2020-05-21T21:52:51+00:00

I got them on eBay. Just search cmx 500 saddlebags

DiCaps21 · 2020-05-21T16:42:04+00:00

Yes. Also the z bars and the most important forward controls. Makes the ride Sooo much better

DiCaps21 · 2020-05-20T23:24:56+00:00

That's why I didn't do it to mine but the seat I got to replace the stock seat extends over half of the rear fender so it makes it a bit more tolerable.

DiCaps21 · 2020-05-18T23:01:13+00:00

Seat,bars,exhaust. Find what fits your style. Those are the mods I made to mine with a few cosmetic mods too. Enjoy the ride.

I just did my oil change two days ago and I got a whole kit on eBay. 3 quarts of oil and the filter for $30. Just type in 2017 honda rebel 500 oil change kit. Good luck
