Review: The 2019 Honda Rebel 300 Is Lightweight, Fun, and Under-Appreciated

A Cruiser Motorcycle You Should Absolutely Love

Towards the tail end of 2019, I traded in my 2009 Honda Rebel 250 for a brand spanking new 2019 Honda Rebel 300. I’d considered getting something dramatically different, but in the end, I realized I wanted a bike a lot like what I already had.

So I bought the Rebel 300. I’d now like to express my thoughts on this bike now that I’ve had it for a few months and have put some miles on the bike.

6 Best Motorcycle Jackets Under $300

If you’re in need of a new motorcycle jacket check out these.

Every couple of years you’ll need to upgrade your gear. When you do, you’d better focus on a helmet first, and then a jacket next. Some guys will say to get yourself some good boots, but I’ve found that you can just wear some sturdy work boots or some old motorcycle boots until you really decide it’s time to upgrade. The jacket, though, is an absolute must. And you can get one for under $300.

While you’ll still need to get boots, gloves, pants, and any other specific gear you want or need, the jacket is a big part of the puzzle. Here are six of the best out there, and while the prices will vary all of them can be found for under $300.
