What's special about the Honda Rebel 300, priced at 160 million VND?

This classic-style manual motorcycle is expected to cost around 160 million VND. It's a touring bike with a low seat and easy handling.

Many Honda dealerships have revealed that the Rebel 300 will be officially distributed in Vietnam at a price of around 160 million VND. This is a mid-range, classic-style touring motorcycle.

If there were a quick survey on the easiest motorcycle to ride, few competitors could challenge the Honda Rebel for the top spot. Its low seat height, ease of handling, and moderate power make the Rebel a top choice for new motorcycle riders.

The Honda Rebel is a prime example of the growing mid-range motorcycle market. Since its introduction in 1985, the Honda Rebel has been a lightweight, fun, stylish, and reliable cruiser for urban commuting. With 31 years without a design change, it was time for Honda to give this bike a complete makeover.

In terms of design, the 2017 Honda Rebel boasts a modern and unique Bobber-style look with wide tires and a comfortable riding position. Additionally, the new generation Rebel features several chrome details that make the bike less monotonous and give it a brighter appearance.

The 2017 Honda Rebel has a wheelbase of 1,490 mm and a height of 690 mm. The bike's height is relatively rider-friendly, especially for Asian riders.

The relatively small 11.2-liter fuel tank, positioned high and combined with the low seat, provides a comfortable riding posture. The classic round headlight and thick tires make the 2017 Honda Rebel look more like a bobber than a cruiser.

In terms of power, the Honda Rebel 300 is powered by a 286cc, four-stroke, liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder engine, commonly found in Honda CB models. The Honda Rebel 300 produces 31 horsepower at 9,500 rpm and 27 Nm of torque at 7,750 rpm. This power output is somewhat excessive for a cruiser weighing only 164 kg.

In its higher-end version, the Honda Rebel 500 shares its engine with the Honda CB500F: a liquid-cooled, 471cc parallel twin-cylinder engine. This engine produces 47 horsepower and 43 Nm of torque, and despite its larger weight of 185 kg, this power is still quite strong.

Both versions use a 6-speed gearbox and single Nissin disc brakes at both the front and rear. Customers can opt for ABS for an additional $300.
