Frequently asked
- What is the seat height of the Honda Rebel 1100?
- The Honda Rebel 1100 has a published unladen seat height of 27.6 inches (70 cm). Under your weight the suspension sags roughly 1.2 inch, so the effective height you reach is a little lower.

- You can plant both feet flat on the Honda Rebel 1100 from roughly a 25.4-inch inseam, and get the balls of both feet down from about 24.4 inches (in riding boots). Below that you're on tiptoes.
- Can the Honda Rebel 1100 be lowered?
