2024 Honda Rebel 1100T / Rebel 1100

Honda offers two variations of its Rebel 1100 cruiser, a standard model and a touring bagger model. Both models can be ordered with a Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT).

Both models and the DCT versions are powered by a 1,083cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine that is also found in the company’s Africa Twin adventure bike. The torquey engine utilizes a Unicam single-overhead camshaft and four valves per cylinder. The crankshaft utilizes a 270-degree crankshaft design which mimics the pulses of a V-twin.

The DCT models utilize the six-speed dual-clutch transmission that allows the bike to be ridden in automatic modes or be manually shifted via buttons on the handlebar all without having to use a clutch. Both the 1100T and 1100 can also be ordered with a conventional six-speed transmission.

The Rebel 1100T has “bagger” styling with a large fork-mounted windscreen, and a pair of lockable hard saddlebags that offer a combined 35 liters of storage space.

The Rebel 1100 chassis is anchored by a steel frame and tubular steel swingarm. Suspension at the front is handled by a 43mm fork with 5.5 inches of travel, while at the rear are a pair of Showa piggyback reservoir shocks with preload adjustability and 3.7 inches of travel. At the front is a single four-piston radial-mount caliper and 330mm brake disc. The rear system has a single-piston unit and 256mm disc. ABS is standard on all models.

Each version of the Rebel 1100 comes with electronic rider aids including three ride modes: Standard, Sport, and Rain. The modes have preset parameters for Power, HSTC, engine-braking, and DCT timing. There is also a fourth User mode that can be set to preference.

The Rebel 1100T is available in Metallic Black or Matte Armored Green Metallic for $10,699, or $11,349 with DCT. The Rebel 1100 is available in Metallic Blue or Gray Metallic for $9,549, or $10,149 with DCT.
