Good plan, I hope you do well with it, get your motorcycling skills sharpened up and move up to a CB11 if that's what you really want

Hey, omarj, post some pictures of your Rebel and tell us how you're finding it when you have a minute.

Yes, I'd love to see some pics of it. I think you are going to be very happy with your new bike.

Good choice. I don't think you will regret it.

Great job, enjoy! The Rebel is getting a lot of very favorable press. I've not ridden one, but it sounds like it's going to be a big hit for Honda.

Life is short man- you want a CB1100 then get one. Read all the advice you're given here and take it in. Be cautious and learn to ride the CB little by little.

Follow advice like that, and life can be even shorter!

Congrats Omarj! I know you will enjoy it. Lots of cool aftermarket parts from Thailand.

All three dealerships in my area are out of rebel 500 and 300. The cb1100 2017's are scarce too, but they have cbr1000's from any year you want!
If the rebel was around in its current form when I started I'd have taken a serious look at it. I've only been riding a year and a few months but I felt ready to step up to the cb1100. Mind you I'm a bit of a fanatical rider putting on 25000 km on my first bike in my first season, reading 4 books on motorcycle riding and safety, taking the beginner safety course, and two advanced handling courses. Most guys after a year would have 2-5k on their bikes, I've done that in a week.
