Is this bike to small for someone that weights 185 and is 6'3"

No problem with the weight at all, but your height might be a problem. I'm 6' 210, and it hauls me down the highway at 70 easy. It is a little cramped though, and at 6'3", it might be too cramped for you. Sit on one at a dealer, and see how it feels.

No, it's not too small at all. I think you'll find everything fits just fine, even at your size, and your weight won't even be noticed by the Rebel.

You are too tall! This bike is physically too small for any one over 5' 9."

i'm 6' 200# and find it cramped for long rides. The seat is uncomfortable after 30min-1hr of constant riding. It is an excellent bike for starting on and i would continue to use it if not for the cramped riding position and lack of power over 50mph. if more aftermarket parts were available i would consider upgrades, but there really aren't and spending $1000 on a bike for foreward controls and a seat are not cost effective to me, i'm looking to upgrade to a VTX.

I'm 6'3", 175 and I rode an '05 last week that I was considering buying for my wife (who is 5'2"). I have a 34" inseam, and I thought it was too small for me, but prefect for her. I'd look at a cruiser in the 650 range. Even as a beginner, you will still be able to handle a 650.
