Hi guys and girls after seeing the Rebel 500 by chance in uk I fell in love..it revived my interest in biking after 10 years, only previously owned a c90 for 5 years.
I have been backwards and forwards to dealership to sit on the bike as I am 6ft 3 190lbs and have had lower back problems, my direct access course is due in 3 weeks which will discount the Rebel by £500 if taken through Honda,
my concerns are am I going to be too big for this bike I visited a showroom today and the salesman said “can I help? you look far too big on that” I was already unsure how comfy I’d be and he really didn’t help, the problem is I can’t testride until I pass but if it turns out to be a no go I’ll miss big discounts on other branded bikes by not completing training through them, I’m not keen on other Honda bikes available at price range
I’d be really grateful to here from any tall guys to know if you find the bike comfortable and are sitting upright
Thanks
