2022 Honda Rebel 500

2022 HONDA REBEL 500 BASE (NO ABS)

2022 Honda Rebel 500 Base (No ABS) is a modern cruiser motorcycle that blends approachable size, confident styling, and everyday-friendly performance into one standout package. Available now through MotoMember, this Rebel 500 is a strong choice for riders who want a lightweight cruiser with real highway capability, low-seat confidence, and Honda reliability. Its 471cc parallel-twin engine, blacked-out finish, and low 27.2-inch seat height give it the kind of balance that appeals to both newer riders and experienced riders looking for a sleek, easygoing street bike. 

Built for city riding, commuting, weekend backroad cruising, and relaxed everyday use, the 2022 Rebel 500 sits in Honda’s lineup as a practical midsize cruiser with a sportier edge than many traditional V-twin alternatives. The parallel-twin engine delivers smooth, usable power with strong low-rpm torque and a broad, rider-friendly powerband, while the narrow overall layout helps the bike feel manageable in traffic, parking lots, and stop-and-go riding. Honda also gave this model features riders appreciate every day, including full LED lighting and a slipper/assist clutch that reduces clutch-lever effort and helps make downshifts smoother.
