How big is a 1987 honda rebel 250? check it out

People have asked me how big is too big to ride on a honda rebel...you'll hear answers all over the place... from anything over 5'10 and 180 lbs is too much, to 300lbs is fine.

Im 5'11, around 210lbs, and yes, its a small bike. but its fun... mines lowers 2.5"'s, but if you are wanting one, dont let your size be the only determining factor, unless your morbidly obese ;)

@curtmastor I gotta say...I love my Rebel, it was my first bike I learned to ride on. My 2004 Harley Davidson 1200 Sportster is a much better riding machine though. More Comfortable, delivers power better, shifts better, sounds better, is faster, and actually handles better in a lot of ways. Also I can pack more stuff on the Harley. I still ride both, but its like night and day switching between the two. Rebels are definitely cool units though.But so are Harleys.

I dont car what the harley fags say. Rebels look cool is you style them retro. Bike that are massive and weigh a ton look dumb. These are the most purely enjoyable motorcycles in my opinion. Like scooters with a supercharger lol.

As far as how big is too big for a Honda Rebel, I got one for my wife to learn on and she loves hers. She is tall, 5'9" for a woman. I am 6'1" and ride the bike from time to time for short trips to the store. The only complaint I have is the seat, I would like to sit back a bit further to make some room but the two piece seat makes it uncomfortable to push back a bit.

Where did you buy that seat?

why are your forks.. red? love my 85 rebel to death! mine sounds like that, all you have to cut a few inches off the end, file it nice, and gut the insides. Cost = $0. And you keep pipes on both sides which is how I like them, nice and balanced.

were did you get those handle bars?!!

@Servatis17 Oh! And my dick is bigger than yours!

[smalltownskater17]

What kind of bars are those man? Are they stock?

looks like Honda has pussified the noise these things make, cause mine sounds like a lawn mower on NOS -_- and its an 06' btw
