That’s actually a decent plan and Rebels are good looking bikes.
One would be great for around town with a little bit of highway time sprinkled in here and there but don’t get one for traveling interstates. Maintaining the speeds necessary to keep up with traffic would be stressing that little 250cc motor.
Another one to consider, a Yamaha Virago 535, had a friend with one when I was stationed in Germany. Good little cruiser style bike that actually handled pretty well.
