What are the sprockets on a Honda Rebel 250?
The bike is hopelessly undergeared! With a stock 14/33t sprockets, it is jerky in first gear, you don’t even go half of an intersection before needing to shift into second gear, and fifth gear cruises nicely at 25-30mph. (so what about the other 50mph?)
What’s the weight of a Honda Rebel bike?
Its light weight (just over 300 pounds) and smooth five speed transmission make the bike easy to ride. The Rebel’s classic cruiser styling and chrome highlights give it the appearance of a much larger bike. Perhaps this is why so many owners seek to boost its horsepower.
What’s the MPG on a Honda Rebel 250?
1- For some reason, every upgear, made the bike vibrate less, to the point of at 15/25t it vibrates at 4k rpm, but not too bad. 2- Every upgear to 15/28t, and under conditions upto 15/25, would increase MPG on the bike. With a 15/25t it would lug below 2.5k rpm (30mph), and above 70 mph with a headwind.
What are the benefits of Honda Rebel 250 15 / 25T?
Bit most benefit of the 15/25t lies in higher mpg at low speeds (80-110mpg US, which is what you usually get from a fuel injected 250, or 150cc scooter not going over 40mph). And the lower vibrations.

What happens when you change the sprocket size on a motorcycle?
This ratio determines how engine RPM is translated into wheel speed by the bike. Changing sprocket sizes, front or rear, will change this ratio, and therefore change the way your bike puts power to the ground.
What is the ratio between front and rear sprockets?
We explain it all here. Your gearing ratio is, simply put, the ratio of teeth between the front and rear sprockets. This ratio determines how engine RPM is translated into wheel speed by the bike. Changing sprocket sizes, front or rear, will change this ratio, and therefore change the way your bike puts power to the ground.
