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.
