Honda CMX 250 Rebel weight overview

WHAT THIS MEANS

This sits in a fairly light weight range. That does not guarantee easy handling, but it reduces the sheer mass you have to manage at a stop. The comparison uses dry weight because a usable wet/running figure was not supplied, so the actual ready-to-ride motorcycle will be heavier.

Honda CMX 250 Rebel weight FAQ

How heavy is the Honda CMX 250 Rebel?

Listed dry weight is 306.4 lb (139 kg) to 315.3 lb (143 kg). Because no usable wet/running figure was supplied, treat that as a lower starting point rather than the exact on-road weight.

Is the Honda CMX 250 Rebel heavy compared with other Honda custom/cruiser motorcycles?

It is on the lighter side in this dataset. Its representative dry weight sits around the 4th weight percentile among 51 Honda custom/cruiser motorcycles, meaning most compatible models are heavier.

Does the Honda CMX 250 Rebel weight change by model year?
