This Chinese Doppelganger Of Honda Rebel 500 Is Sportier Than The Real Deal
Wuling, a popular Chinese car manufacturer has made its first motorcycle, and it looks gorgeous!
Wuling is a popular Chinese carmaker, and it has come up with its first motorcycle, the Wuling Serpol 1. In-line with ‘tradition,’ this Chinese bike is a doppelganger of another mainstream motorcycle from a big brand, in this case, the Honda Rebel 500. However, it does come with an interesting twist.
When it comes to design, the Serpol 1 looks quite identical to the Rebel with a muscular and rugged styling. Gets a low-slung saddle, high-rise fuel tank and upright handlebars. However, it does get one addition to set it apart – a sharp and stylish bikini fairing which is reminiscent of the MV Agusta Superveloce Serie Oro.

Powering the Serpol 1 is a Euro-5-compliant 494cc, parallel twin, liquid-cooled heart borrowed from Loncin Voge, making 54PS. This makes it more powerful than the Honda’s 471cc mill making 46.2PS and 43.3Nm.
The Serpol 1 runs a telescopic fork and dual shock absorber setup along with radial disc brakes at both ends with ABS. The Rebel uses axial discs for braking. The Serpol 1 runs on 16-inch front tubeless spoke wheels with a fat 130/90 tyre, whereas the Rebel gets flashy alloys. Apart from all that, the Serpol 1 features LED lighting.
Expect the motorcycle’s price to be revealed soon. If you're looking for a potent middleweight cruiser, the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 is a good VFM option. We've tested the bike and here's what we liked about it and what we didn't.

The Mid and Top Range of the bike so so smooth yet powerful, a value for money in my opinion and it's compact too 📈 really love the performance, the crusing is also fair on this bike, really Enjoyed the ride. Although some people might think they are over charging, but trust me, it's better than a 650 ❤️Read More
You know, the Honda Rebel 500 is one of those bikes they just completely nailed. It skips all that flashy, heavy chrome we see on old school cruisers and goes for this modern, blacked-out bobber look that works. And the first thing you feel is how crazy low that seat is. Seriously, it's a huge confidence booster.Read More
