The Honda CMX500 Rebel (also called the Honda CMX500 or Rebel 500) is a cruiser motorcycle made by the Japanese company Honda.
Designed as a "bobber-style" cruiser within the Honda CM series, the model was presented in November 2016 in Long Beach, California, and went into production in spring 2017. The 2020 model included a new LED lighting package, a revised instrument cluster, and a slipper-assist clutch. The Rebel 500 uses the same 471 cc (28.7 cu in) 180° crank straight-twin engine as Honda's other 21st century "500 twins", and shares some frame components with the CL500.
