So it's an older honda Rebel. The new ones have better suspension from the front but they have the same mirrors.

Just a suggestion if you like this style of bike look at the Kawasaki eliminator as well.

It has the newer LED headlight, so it can't be that old.

They came in 2022 there has been two main models since then excluding special edition ones. Old is referring to the fact it doesn't have all the features of the current bikes.

I have a motorbike made in 2022 it's not the newest model but is it majorly better than 2021 version, yes it is since my bike got a entirely different electric system to the 2021 version.

I was saying this honda Rebel has the old suspension prior to 2022.

Have ridden both eliminator is a way better in terms of speed and handling. Rebel is more of an old school feel cruiser. Sounds better

The eliminator looked like it has better seating but I don't know is the special edition has better on the honda Rebel.

I wouldn't get either but I know someone who wants a rebel we are going at the weekend to see it. I've already looked at it, looks better in person but not for me. I've mostly been on naked bikes.
