You may not be able to get your mitts on one of Honda’s new Rebel 300 or 500s at your local dealer for a while yet but that hasn’t stopped the rollout of the first of what will likely be several custom iterations of the little cruiser. Introducing the Honda Rebel + Aviation Nation edition. You don’t know who or what Aviation Nation is? That’s okay as the target market we assume does. Nice seat treatment but the colours remind us of a ski jacket from 1982 – but then again the target market for this little machine wasn’t born in 1982 so they are just discovering browns and oranges. The Rebel + Aviation Nation edition is being unveiled at the hippest of venues, the SXSW festival in Austin, TX.
