I think this is good move for Honda's entry level street bikes. They sold the old Rebel and Nighthawk 250s for over 30 yrs. While popular, their big drawback was not having enough power to deal with modern freeway speeds.
I think these two new, more powerful Rebels along with the CB/CBR300 sporty models will provide something for everyone in the entry level category.
The only thing I don't care for on the Rebel is the single seat. It reduces the utility somewhat. I've always liked the option to either take a passenger or strap some gear or cargo behind me.
