Engineered by Honda for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2021 Honda CMX1100 Rebel utilizes a 1084 cc (66.2 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 46.9 HP (34.3 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 98 Nm (72.3 lb-ft) at 4,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 43.3 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (4,750 rpm) and peak power (7,000 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the CMX1100 Rebel measures 223 kg (492 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.21 HP/kg (4.75 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 700 mm (27.6 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,520 mm (59.8 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 13.6-liter (3.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
