The Honda CMX450 "Rebel" motorcycle manufactured by Honda for model years 1986 and 1987. In contrast to the Rebel 250 cruiser it has a 450 cc motor. The introduction of the Rebel 250 and 450 was a way for Honda to attract female riders, new to motorcycling,[1] due to these bikes' low seat heights, low center of gravity, and overall ease of handling[2]; however, the September 1985 issue of Motorcyclist magazine, when the Rebel was first introduced, states "by targeting the bike to a young audience, such as those who watch MTV, Honda hopes to attract newcomers and expand the motorcycle market ... Honda is not marketing this motorcycle as a woman's bike"[3].
