    I’ve got a 2012 250 Honda rebel, and oh boy has this thing been a paaain. I’ve had the bike since October 2022 and when I first got the bike off of fb market place it was running okay at best but dead battery. Replaced battery w OEM stock and then noticed that it would barely run without full...
  2. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    I had my whole carb apart and soaking in cleaner for a few days due to a really rough idle. Got a gasket kit with new float needles and jets, figured might as well use them. I got it all cleaned and blew out, put it all back together, now the bike wont fire. I checked both the drains after the...
  3. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    I recently bought a 2009 Honda rebel I have a steady fuel leak. Everything is oem and as far as I know the carb has never been rebuilt or cleaned, from my research it is most likely a float valve issue. Turning the fuel off keeps it from leaking. Would a simple cleaning fix this issue or would I...

    Hey all, I just picked up a 1986 honda rebel 450 and it does not have a gas tank. I have found a 2004 rebel 450 gas tank and was wondering if anyone knew if it may fit? I did not relize that it would be hard to find a used oem tank. With that said if anyone has a 1886 gas tank or another year...
  5. Honda Rebel Room
    Hey I have a 2008 Rebel and my carb is leaking fuel and I wanted to do a carb rebuild. I tried searching the web for some rebuild kits (gasket and float needle), but I cannot seem to find one for my year. Unfortunately, the rebuild kits that I'm finding are for rebels up to '06. Do you think...
  6. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    I have a honda Rebel 250 with about 6,3 00 original miles. I am the 3rd owner and the first owner let sit for like a year. The 2nd owner, who I bought it from, got it running (not very well) and never did any maintenance except the occasional oil change. Well, I've had her for about a month...
  7. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    I recently installed the inline fuel filter and when I did I partially filled it with gas. I noticed today after riding it that it was empty and pulling in the gas as a vaccuum (one drop to carb, one drop in filter). Is this normal? I have on it a Briggs and Stratton clear 2x filter.

    How do I get to the "fuel screen"? My friend is saying it might be gunked up
  9. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    I've been noticing that when I am running on a full tank of gas, the bike runs really well but once I use up about 1 gallon of fuel which is around 60+ miles, the engine would cut out 2 - 3 times a ride. Once I refuel, the bike would ride beautifully. I've had the carb cleaned out twice and...
  10. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    Hey all. I am new to the forum and to motorcycles but am REALLY getting a lot of use out of the information here in my quest to figure out what I have gotten myself into! I encountered a bit of a problem today...I was warming up my bike, it's a 1986 250 that I have been pulling apart, cleaning...
  11. Engine, Carburetor, Fuel System & Exhaust
    Hey everyone. I just got a 2002 Rebel about 2 weeks ago. I haven't had a ton of time to ride but when I did (about 40 miles) it ran like a champ. Now today It seems to be starving for fuel. If it runs at all it is with the choke partially open and sometimes will completely die. If it sits a...
  12. Rebel Reading Room (FAQs)
    I have been having fuel starvation problems with my 2005 Honda Rebel. I cleaned out the carburetor and replaced the air filter but I am still having the same problems. It sputters and dies while cruising or accelerating from a stop and at times will refuse to start. Today I took out the fuel...
