Thanks buddy great review! With my arthritis in my left hand, right knee and only being 5’7” tall, I’ve been worried that I would have to retire from bikes at only 60 years young! I’ve watched all the crap basic rebel 1100 reviews mostly from USA and yours is by far the most informative, so with your help I’ve put down a deposit on a spanking new Rebel 1100 DCT 😊

I'm very interested in the rebel but also the NT1100. I was having a hard time deciding on which one to get. Looks like my height (6'4) may have decided for me... Love your reviews mate... cheers from Iceland

@@theloftybiker3090 Is there a bike in the vein of the Rebel or even Goldwing that are available for a big lump rider? Because I have always pictured myself on a cruiser/chopper type of motorbike.

@@theloftybiker3090 HDs don't have a stellar reputation for reliability over here and, as far as I know, there is no Indian Dealership here, so it would have to be a deeper pocket than I can find for a while longer hahaha. Very many thanks for the replies mate, I really appreciate you taking the time.

Thanks. I love my NT1100 but if was ever going to get a bagger I think it would have to be a Harley.

It would be a Gold Wing for me........

Great video 🤠. How do you like the bagger compared to an NT1100? I’m about 5’7” and very interested in the Rebel, but wanted to get your opinion on the NT. The Rebel looks FUN… Thanks 🙏

Love the fairing but will get rid of the luggage carriers. Any body did that yet or better buy the plain model then add the fairing later.

I'm 6'5'' tall and have never ridden the Indian...only ridden the FTR1200 and the fueling was awfull....Sounds like you need to test ride them...The Rebel 1100 is a fantastic bike just not as sexy as the American ones..but it will last a lot longer.

Idk... That Rebel looks like an okay bike and all. But it's waaay to small. It does look like it would fit a woman verry good doh, or someone shorter in general.
