2023 Honda® Rebel 1100 Touring ABS

2023 Honda® Rebel 1100 Touring ABS

Features may include:

• Torque monster

The Rebel 1100 Touring uses a modified version of the 1,084 cc, liquid-cooled engine that powers the acclaimed Africa Twin, ensuring arm-pulling acceleration from low speeds and impressive top-end performance. The engine’s parallel-twin configuration and Unicam cylinder head contribute to the bike’s overall low centre of gravity and optimum mass centralization, which help produce stable, road-hugging, confident handling.

• Tuned for touring

To give the Rebel 1100 Touring its unique cruiser personality, valve timing and lift and even ignition timing were modified from Africa Twin spec, while flywheel mass was boosted 20 percent to increase inertia. The 270-degree crankshaft features uneven firing intervals that produce the powerful engine pulses that make riding a big-twin cruiser so much fun.

• Riding Modes

The Rebel features three riding modes (Standard, Sport, Rain) plus a User mode. These modes adjust the Power, Engine Braking, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), Wheelie Control and even the shift pattern on the DCT, allowing you to personalize your ride to your style and the road conditions.

• Available DCT transmission

The Rebel 1100 Touring looks like no other cruiser out there, and it’s engineered like no other cruiser, either. Case in point: the available Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT), a first for a cruiser motorcycle. The DCT is an automated manual transmission, built with the same operating principals of a manual transmission but shifts automatically, allowing you to enjoy the ride without having to worry about the clutch or gears. The Rebel offers three automatic modes to tune the shifting to your style of riding. Want more control? Use the paddle shift buttons to override the automatic gear selection or put in manual mode for full control.

• Suspension

The Rebel’s 43 mm cartridge-type front fork is coated in a dark titanium oxide that complements the bike’s evocative blacked-out styling. Classic “piggyback” style twin rear shocks not only look the business, they also ensure consistent damping force for a controlled, comfortable ride over all types of road surfaces. Spring preload adjustment lets you calibrate suspension performance to your personal preference, or to take into account a passenger or the added weight of luggage.

• ABS Stopping power

The Rebel 1100 Touring goes hard, no question, and it also stops with authority thanks to its large-diameter disc brakes. A monoblock radial-mount caliper squeezes a 330 mm floating rotor up front, while a 256 mm rotor provides balanced stopping force at the rear. This model comes standard with ABS.

• Big cruiser demands big tires

A big cruiser demands big tires, and the Rebel 1100 Touring delivers with a fat 130/70-18 front tire and a beefy 180/65-16 rear tire. Both are mounted on Y-shape, five-spoke wheels that provide optimum rigidity and handling.

• Set up for touring

Setting it apart from the Rebel 1100, the Rebel 1100 Touring comes standard with a large headlight cowl with windscreen for added wind protection. Plus the saddlebag which are perfect for packing for a weekend getaway.

• Exhaust

The Rebel 1100 Touring’s eye-catching looks are matched by its ear-pleasing exhaust tone. A gentle pulse at low speeds in town turns into a deep and powerful tone as you accelerate to higher speeds.

• Cruise control

Standard electronic cruise control gives your throttle hand a break on long highway rides.

• LED lighting

All-LED lighting and a multi-function LCD display provide modern touches to a bike with classic good looks.
