Will there be rebel 500 dct ver.? 

Most probably not. as Rebel 500 is an affordable beginner bike & DCT technology is a bit expensive, Maybe if Honda install a DCT on their 750 maybe they can also install on a Rebel for their Mid size engine category

Anyone has an F850 GS? OK ba siya for daily use din?

Bmw F850 GS is a good bike, a little bit tall & top heavy, Good power & linear delivery. the engine is a bit hot on traffic. as for daily commute that really depends on the preference & skill of the rider. i usually ride a Gs R1250 & even on traffic its manageable & Less heat coming from the engine than a F850.

Here's my winded suggestion - you have two options: start straight on a manual, or with scooters. Starting with scooters is the steady but more expensive route. Scooters are easier to start on since you'll only be managing throttle, brakes, direction and the traffic around you. It's also easier to maneuver around town and driveways because of its size. Cheap to operate and maintain too. Downside is you will have to learn to use a manual motorcycle at some point, so that's another purchase (or at least another phase in case you can borrow a manual to learn on). You can of course go straight to the Rebel you want, but I can't really recommend doing that. SCOOTER > INTERIM MANUAL > REBEL

The 2nd option is to skip the scooter part, and start on a small manual bike. Starting on a manual is the cheaper, but might have a slower progression option. This heavily depends on how comfortable you are with motorcycles tho. In addition to the things above, you'll also be managing a clutch, a gear lever and the rear brake gets transferred on your right foot. You're literally using all 4 limbs on a manual. If all of that sounds hazy to you, then this option is a no-go. Although, If you have a place to practice (a subdivision or parking lots), or a friend with a manual, this might actually be viable option for you. You just need to build your skills before going out on the public road. MANUAL > REBEL

There are also 400cc+ scooters nowadays. You might want to check those too.

Enrolling in Honda is not a bad idea, you get taught and also will be able to experience both manual and scooter. You might also get a chance to ride a 400cc+ bike there.

Nice Input

You might also want to consider yamaha bolt, 950cc vtwin engine on a bobber/cruiser type. Not much features pero sakto sa power

Yamaha Bolt is heavy bike. But ok bike. Already have a Triumph Bobber Black

So my friend went for the rebel 500 and just a few months after and sold it. Nabitin daw siya sa power and hindi daw pala para sa kanya ang cruiser. Now, naka cb650r siya. I'm waiting for him to upgrade para ako kumuha. For short commutes hirap gamitin ng z1000. Parang kotse lumaklak.

A lot of Female riders rode on Honda Rebel 500. CB650R is a great bike also. Light & Nimble. lalo na pag nag palit ng Akrapovic Exhaust tangalin yun Silencer ang ganda ng tunog ng 4 Cylinder.

Pm me for orders! ❤️

Nice Post! Hope you don't mind suggestions. Maybe you should post price & details for less confusions. Also delivery details or pick up? So that people will already know the price & if interested then will contact you!

thanks & Good luck! Happy Selling.

Go out & Ride!

I was eyeing the Honda Rebel 500 but the Makati showroom says that it's out of stock and no delivery schedule in the next months.

 

So, I looking at the Vulcan S and maybe the RE Interceptor.

 

i suggest you try a test drive 1st as the Vulcan S is a Cruiser bike & your comparing it to RE Interceptor Cafe Racer. Both nice bikes but the interceptor is on the heavy side & the seating position is a little bit like a sports bike. but for the price of both bikes its a steal..... Affordable Japanese Cruiser bike vs India Cafe Racer. Reliability wise i'll go with Japs.... as there are a lot of electrical issues on RE right now.

I stand corrected, he's choosing between the rebel and vulcan s.

I suggested to him to wait for the 2020 rebel.

Honda Rebel is a good Beginner Bike. Its the Training bike in the US. As for the Vulcan S i think its a 650cc engine like the same engine on kawasaki ninja 650. also a good bike.

personally i prefer European bikes as they have more character for me. Japanese bikes are nice bikes with more power & affordable price. He won't get wrong on either bikes.

Normally if the dealer has late models bikes like 2019 models on stock they usually sell it on a discounted price. you can get the late model for a bargain. the newer version does not really have a big upgrade.
