Honda showcases 10 Europe's finest custom CMX500 and CMX1100 Rebel from Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, and the UK to celebrate the return of the Wheels and Waves festival in Biarritz on the French Basque coast. The most popular Rebel will be unveiled in August.
In addition, 10 Rebels that visitors were not able to see in Biarritz are featured on the Honda Customs website. Check here: Honda Customs page
In this article, I will introduce one of the customized Honda Rebel, name The Sport.
The Sport
Builder: FCR Original, Chauvigny, France
FCR Original wanted to highlight the practical and playful side of the Rebel, but make it more sporty, muscular and aggressive. A swingarm modification allowed fitment of a pair of black Öhlins rear shocks, as well as 17-inch CB500F rear wheel and Dunlop D212 190/55-ZR17 tyre. The front mudguard is scratch-built and 25mm lower; oversize handlebars add leverage while the speedo has been moved to the top yoke.
Stunning in its simplicity, the bodywork is result of a complete 3D scan and consists of custom polyester-carbon fuel tank (with aluminium filler) and rear seat unit with LED lighting and Alcantara seat. Hand-built footrests add a racing feel while the red/black paint and detailing pays subtle homage to classic Honda imagery. The engine is stock, but breathes through an FCR Original stainless steel exhaust.
