I have 3 Royal Enfields myself and my brother has just bought himself the red Meteor. He had a serious accident about 4 years ago and this is the perfect bike for him to return to the saddle. It is low, feels light, not too powerful and the throttle is not in any way snatchy, Perfect for Steve's return to biking or any beginner. I have been riding for 40 years and Steve for closer to 50 but i enjoy riding it as much as he does. Seems to me Royal Enfield cant put a foot wrong so far. Between us we have owned Triumphs Harleys a Norton Ducati and all the usual Japanese makes but Royal Enfield's have a charm all their own. Great Review as usual by the way.

Many mature bikers are walking away from hyper bikes. Changing to everyday rideable bikes without electrickery and the need to dress like a power ranger. This bike is a bargain for a go to work, tootle round bike. Some of my best biking memories were hooning around on 250s. Its pricing is amazing it makes electric bike manufacturers look like extortionists. Well done RE and as always great review aimed at the audience that are interested in this type of motorcycling.

This is just another home run from Royal Enfield! I have been to my local dealer to sit on the bike. Firstly, they are just beautiful, and they do not come across as a small bike when you are standing next to it. Handling the bike, it feels very solid! Definitely not a toy bike. I love the Interceptor 650, but I am 56 years old, and have not ridden in over 25 years. I just don't know that I need that much bike. My heart is torn. I also like to explore dirt roads. Mostly groomed, or gravel forest service roads. I really love the feel of the back tire drifting back and forth in the gravel. I think the 650 may be better suited for that. Sigh. I think I am going to just have to wait for the moment, and buy according to my gut feeling at the time. But then again...they may have a Himalayan style two cylinder bike out by then. Hmmm. Another monkey wrench in the works.

non adjustable forks can be adjusted. first the oil. softest is using auto transmission fluid, its intended use is far more demanding than suspension. it has excellent extreme pressure lubricity, good corrosion inhibitors by using double the amount the air volume in the fork leg decreases and acts as a progressive spring. on normal bump no change but on a big hit or landing from big air the forks will never bottom out, the high pressure air inside prevents it

Great review. I stand and smile next to my Meteor when I'm not on it. Its the smoothest single cylinder machine I've ever ridden. Riding it is a pleasure, literally makes the process itself a wonderful way to spend your time. It's got just enough power and it feels like a much bigger bike. At country lane speeds it's not a slouch. It gets to the point firmly and with plenty of confident torque. Standard seat seems fine, but I probably up for a touring seat just for the stitching. I can see myself holding on to this for a while.

Nice, but very heavy for a 350. Should really be around 170kg wet. I'm wondering whether they are planning to release a 500cc version using the same chassis, weighing about the same but with 30bhp. Now that would get my interest!

RE is actually in final testing stage for 650 cruiser called Shotgun. You can check it out spy videos are available on youtube. It will be the twin cylinders not single cylinder.

I'm getting caught up in the riptide. I've already got two REs, do I hear 3.. and will the 350 meteor lead to a 650 shotgun? Very fitting. I'm quitting cold turkey, right after the next test ride.. lol

Good review, thank you sir. Love the bike, i compare it with the Hyosung Aquila 300 and the Benelli imperial 400. If Honda does take the H'ness (cb350) to Europe as the planned then it get a difficult choice but for now this Royal Enfield is the winner for me. I wil buy next year after winter time. Thank you again for this review, it help me a lot. Greetings from Belgium.

Great review as usual Mark. Twenty BHP out of a 350 cc engine is a little low. No doubt someone will come out with a compression kit for it. Piston and other mods.Thank you.

Thanks Colin yes it bimbles along nicely at 60/70 mph but a little bit more power would be nice Cheers mark

It is capable of doing more, but there is a general consensus that there is an electronic limit on the meteor

LOL, a cue card taped to the tank? Maybe somebody will make a bar-mounted teleprompter, so one can keep their eyes on the road. I really enjoyed this content as there is not enought coverage of Royal Enfield. Really cool to see RE aren't resting on their laurels.

Phew Mark, ordered one 3 weeks ago but was on tenterhooks until you reviewed it and you concurred with me luckily! First bike in ??? years that actually put a smile on the face so cannot wait for that dealer phone call saying it's not stuck in the Suez canal, know what I mean?

Not sure if this has come up but the supernova in this video isn’t standard. You have the bar end mirrors and touring seat which are both optional extras. Standard comes with usual chrome mirrors and a dark brown seat. I think this seat and mirrors up the price a bit, but not 100% on that.
