Hopefully they didn't detune the smaller Rebel like they did the CRF250L. That bike turned out to be a total slug and heavy to boot relative to the Yamaha WR250R .
If they kept the peppy motor of the CBR this bike might have a wider appeal than just for beginners.
The original Rebel was $1495 in 1986. Doing the inflation calculation to 2015 dollars that takes it to $3295. Is the new Rebel worth the additional $1100? I'd say yes--if it runs well. If it's as slow as the CRF250L, no.
