Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 Unveiled | Details, Ride Experience Explained | EICMA 2022 | BikeWale

Here's everything you should know about the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650. What else would you want to know about the Super Meteor 650? And, would buy it over the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650? Do let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

But ground clearence is very low compared to gt 650and interceptor

[@garyseaton4619]

This bike is for the European and American markets. It looks fantastic. The change in rake, forks and tire size is huge. More clearance is good but I'm still a fan of the gas shocks... Want to see what it costs here in North America...

[@Therandomaveragely]

It is for Indian markets too😊

[@johnludmon510]

I live in the UK where Royal Enfield have gone from a left field choice to a more mainstream choice which offer excellent value for money (my meteor cost me less than a Japanese 125). The super meteor looks like another step up in class and has details like the new switch gear and indicators that look like a massive improvement over the ones on the existing 650’s. I expect the bike to retail about £7000 in the UK which will put it closer to the big 4 in price but if it is as well made as the meteor it should still be competitive. With the Harley EVO sportster being discontinued there is a hole in the market for this type of bike and the low seat height will appeal to the shorter rider (women). The bike in Europe falls into the A2 license category and could be a perfect first “big bike for those who have just passed their test.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

We like how you have summarised it. 👍🏼

[@rockymeto]

The only problem i have is the ground clearance and i believe RE have specifically targeted the international market. overall everything looks promising.

[@BikeWaleOfficial]

It’s a cruiser motorcycle, meant to be ridden on highways. So, GC shouldn’t be an issue.

[@Anjuraj]

@@BikeWaleOfficial to reach the highway we need to pass through all gully nukaas pot holes and why not extraordinary speed bumps

The Super Meteor looks great! Those bags are perfect for that bike. I like how they curve with the fender. I don't mind paying a little more for this bike. It has more accessories, for long cruises. I think it's just a nice ride man. They should make them in the colors of the new 350s. Great review, keep it up!

[@oneworld797]

Those panniers are average type and looks. They will fade in the hot sun, lose color and shape in a short span of time. Aluminium or other metallic Panniers no to only look great but are also much durable and strong in the long run. I hope they come up with fog lamps, extra fuel cans, riding gear, for long trips too.

[@willernst2721]

I am fairly certain this bike will do well here in the U.S. It looks good and is priced at a point where people can buy it and then build it into exactly what they would want out of a bike. Although I want an interceptor or a 650 classic, or even the shotgun, I would expect this bike to sell better then any of those bikes here. The price point compared to all of the other bikes in it's class is what should really get it over, I mean that with it's look of course. The bike really looks like it could be a Harley from the 70s or 80s just with a different engine. What I am trying to say is it looks like a real bike, not like what most companies are calling bikes now days. I have a few more months before I can afford any of these bikes so maybe I will wait and get this one, (that red and white two tone is a very nice looking bike), but I don't know yet.

[@lancerbiker5263]

I think RE nailed it with the Fireball. Light, comfortable, economical, beautiful, customizeable , and all the other ables. Call the new one the COMET. The Meteor 350 is a new classic. It wasn't "reborn".

Very well done review. Unfortunately since the nearest RE dealer is an eight hour drive away I will not be purchasing one of these machines. This is a huge issue with RE here in Canada that they are not addressing.

Canada is not a big market for a rather new entrant in that market to justify dealership in every population center in the geographical vastness of that country. If Canada had atleast one fourth of US population, one could reasonably question the marketing and sales strategy of the company for not making more dealers available.

The bike really should come with a second disc brake straight from the factory. You can never have enough Breaking. It is sorry that they cheapened out and did not put a second disc on it when they were redoing the bike. It would not have added too much to the price. It would have been a good selling feature as well. Especially if you're going to be riding two up touring you want to have all the breaking power that you can get.

Not much exciting actually if you observe actually. The hype dies here in India. I would rather go for the cheaper interceptor than spend a premium over this for what ? Inflated tank, raised handlebars, poor pillion support, same power torque, all of which can be achieved by cheaper after market mods. It's going to be a negligible sales churner for RE in India. For the foreign market though if priced optimally not aggressively it can work wonders for international markets like indonessian, Vietnam and US. Dont be judgemental. I am really awed by the launch but upon pressing hard on the pretext of buying it, I really don't find a differentiating factor. The alloys and the pillion looks darn cheap make. They had a real chance of breaking the premium cruiser market but they just screwed it with the own legacy. The same darn boring v shaped chasis. It feels like a moded bike. RE legacy and their noob fans are ok but when threading into premium category they donot intrigue cruiser enthusiasts like me. A bit more power tuning and design change would have caught my attention if not the legacy. I am not a RE hater infact I own a RE.
