2009 Honda Rebel (Blue)

Modifications

Drivetrain
Replaced the tires with a set of Pirelli MT66 tires.
Interior
Rejetted carb to eliminate the midrange lean spot Rebels are known for. Swapped in a larger 15 tooth front sprocket to lower cruising RPM.

Added an 8500 RPM tachometer.
Exterior
Nation Cycle Flyscreen
Audio
Added a throttle cable cover from a 1st generation Rebel to dress it up a bit. Required finding late 1980's NOS OEM throttle cables which was a pain.

Removed all 4 stock turn signals, added a pair of marker/turn lights to the forks, and a pair of wedge lights where the rear reflectors were.

Added a pair of LED driving lights mounted on the forks.
Suspension
Removed the rear pillion and fabed up a mount for a Saddleman tailbag.

Mounted a set of Saddleman Cruzin Slant saddlebags.
