You are overthinking.

Big time. It's just a bike.

Ricky M · Nov 8, 2019

As one who rode motorcycles most of his life, my response is:

1. The fact you have to ask this makes me question if a motorcycle is right for you. Survival on two wheels in the street requires advanced cognitive processing (you have to think fast, correctly, and unwaveringly).

2. Dress for the crash, not for the ride

3. Register as an organ donor

I think it's important what it says on my clothes. It's crazy what symbols and signs the world puts on stuff. I was about to buy an innocent Marvel Dr. Strange T-shirt. Then I read the text. It said something like: "A child was born into the world, the magician, the saviour." Not a very good message, right?

For some reason you don't like that it says "rebel". I think there is reason for it and that you should listen to that voice. Now, a good solution is to get the motorbike and put a sticker over the text or something, or get a paintjob done.

Edit: Why not make it into an evangelizing MC, changing the text to something in lines of "Jesus is saviour"

Christ love,
P

I own a Canon Rebel... didn't think twice about the name and neither should you. if you want to put a twist on it since the way of the world (sinful ways) are the norm you can say you "rebel" again the world or "rebel" again sin. Christianity is not the norm today and it is very much counter-cultural which really is just a buzz word for rebel.

Christians are good rebels. Others are bad rebels.

At least it is not a name like Nova, which in Latin countries did not sell well because in Spanish that means No Go.

zoidar · Nov 8, 2019

The name of my bicycle is Nova

I had a 350 cc bike when I was poor. I was out of work a month after a minor accident. I would not want one again. People hate the noise. One landlord made a law against motorcycles. I had a couple of weeks to move. The HOA where I live now does not allow them.

Correction: I had a Honda CM400A.

RaymondG · Nov 8, 2019

You are not overthinking.....and you should think about this also:

You are about to get on a very fast motor that will launch you through the air act very high speeds around heavy metal moving objects going the same speed as you or faster...... and it will be very hard for them to see you.

If your main concern now, or a concern while on this motor will be, the letters displays on this motor.......maybe you should reconsider getting one.

Josh, at 74 I do not ride any more. The Rebel, on it's early stage was a beautiful "pre-chopped" Harley looking bike. The 1100cc my friend bought almost got me killed as did many other of my own overpowered rides.

My young brother purchased the Rebel with a 750cc and after a bad case of Road Rash he sold it for the remaining debt. My good friend and I had recovered from many cases of sevier road rash but my little brother was not built to earn the big dollars of being a carpenter that sweats into open wounds all day... some aren't.

Another thing, it is not true that all One Percenters are filthy with tats. I am bu6t that is my issue that as a Christian Convert, saved by the Extreme Grace of Yashuah ha'Mashiah, you likely know Him by the Greek Translation, Jesus, the Christ.

Not knowing if you are a Vet or not but I have met many wearing a 1% Patch that were not and, thus, did not deserve it. I pray you are not headed there because it seems to be Dope these days.

As a Christian my beard and, LOL, my hair no longer drape below my hip pocket line, yeah, the aqvatar pic is me and is recent. The glasses will disappear after an operation this month and one on the right eye, early, next month.

Back to the point. I tend to digress at times. A good first year Moitor is a 250 and add a little pea gravel and your Road Rash will not hurt any less but the Damage repair to you and the Bike will not cost nearly as much.

If you plan to ride with an Angels or a Bandido club, buy a Snub Nose S&W and nothing smaller than an 1100 four cycle. But with the
Defense System it is entirely to easy to forget you are a Follower of The Christ.

Ive been thinking the same, but the Honda Rebel is 20 years old now. A Honda Shadow is the newer version, at least here in the UK.

Bible Highlighter · Nov 8, 2019

My dad had a job where he would be part of seeing the clean up of motorcycle accidents. Needless to say his telling me the stories was enough to discourage me from ever riding one of those two wheels of death before.

BryanJohnMaloney · Nov 8, 2019

I have colleagues who work emergency rooms. Their term for bikers is "organ donors", both for the hazards of riding and how remarkably often they have that box checked on their license.

Bible Highlighter · Nov 8, 2019

My thought is... why tempt God to protect you in being turned into road pizza when you don’t have to? A person can buy a beater car and have more protection in being in an accident. Unless you live on an island with a 25mph speed limit, I believe it is an unnecessary risk.

no resell value if that is done

Mountainmanbob · Nov 8, 2019

Well most of us were Rebels before being Born Again. Leave it on there possibly?

No one in my Church would think twice regarding that. Just the name of a model.

Johnny Cash was sort of a rebel.
Wonder what he would have thought.
He read the New Testament on CDs
