Honda CMX500 Rebel – Honda chose the catwalk of the Long Beach International Motorcycle Show to present its new CMX500 Rebel. The bike combines the custom style with the city bikes. I would compare the new Honda CMX500 Rebel to the gravy sauce, the classic accompaniment for the meat in Anglo-Saxon countries. With a redesigned look, comfortable saddle and relaxed riding position, the new Rebel aims to attract both centaurs purer than newbies. Especially thanks to the ease of driving.
Honda CMX500 Rebel: A motorcycle with personality
The new Honda CMX500 Rebel has a liquid-cooled parallel twin with 8 valves and 471 cc, derived from that of the CB500. The new CMX500 Rebel is available in two colors, Graphite Black and Mat Armored Silver Metallic. Why I compared the new Honda to gravy sauce? The gravy is an American sauce that traditionally accompanies the roast Turkey, the main dish cooked to celebrate the Thanksgiving.

The creamy texture and thick sauce help keep soft the roast, which otherwise it could be too dry. It is obtained from the cooking of the meat. So, it has all the flavors and juices released during the baking in the oven. So, the charme of tradition (like Thanksgiving) combined with important details (the gravy), characterize the new CMX 500 Rebel. A motorcycle with personality with which the Japanese Honda extends their offer of custom bikes.

Here we present two types of gravy sauce recipe. Very simple and quick to prepare and clearly useful in any time of the year, not just during the Thanksgiving day.
