Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 Vs. Moto Morini Calibro 700 - 1 Winner!

[@Niro.C]

The RE 650cc twin is a gem, they need a stronger version of it by adding a supercharger 🤠

[@MCCJustMotos]

I like how you think!

[@davezimmerman8627]

you have some nice roads there for me to ride my scooter on! oh yeah- great vid and comparison. nice bikes.

[@MCCJustMotos]

Thanks my friend! Gotta meet up again sometime!

It isn't that the RE has more power than the Calibro it's that you didn't understand how the Calibro makes it's power. The Calibro is a high revving engine and makes it's power up higher in the rev range. You were almost lugging the motor. The engine comes from an older version of the Kawasaki ninja 650 which is a high revving engine. You had it at low rpms most of the time.

[@MCCJustMotos]

I don’t know if I will agree with your assessment. This bike seems to be tuned way different with way more power down low than the other Moto Morini’s. I’ve driven all the MM’s with the 650 engines. This 700cc bike has much more punch down low than the 650’s. It is also way less smooth and vibrates more. It is grabby and hard to modulate smoothly. The mid-range has a larger gap and the top end was about the same as the 650’s. What you didn’t see in my video was the tons of high rpm power riding I did. (My camera was pointed too low for good footage). Thanks for the great insight and discussion!

@MCCJustMotos okay cool. Thanks for your thoughtful response. Have a great day.

[@Brettmotorcycles]

Have the super meteor love it and have customized somewhat…You can also add belt drive to super meteor and gets great gas mileage

[@MCCJustMotos]

@@Brettmotorcycles heck yeah! The SM650 is my favorite RE 650!

[@Bacchussmokes]

great comparison, both bikes are nice but looks wise SM650 is leagues ahead

[@MCCJustMotos]

Thanks, and that was my pick too.

[@redsenna3997]

in Italy the price only changes by 300 euros (between the caliber and the metor 650) anyway nice video 👍

[@MCCJustMotos]

Oh wow that is not a big difference! What do you ride?

[@redsenna3997]

@@MCCJustMotos I had a monster 620 ducati, but I sold it... now I'm undecided whether to get a Honda Rebel 500 or Morini caliber. Honda is Honda but Caliber has a nice powerful engine.

[@MCCJustMotos]

​​⁠gotcha. If you can ride them both first. I was not super happy with the grabby throttle on the Calibre, but that could just have been the bike I tried out.

[@redsenna3997]

@@MCCJustMotos Thanks for the advice. Maybe it's better to take the rebel 1100 😅... we'll see. a warm greeting 💪👍👊

[@peterwilliams3252]

Who do you believe just watched another test on colibra and no vibration and also dead very smooth,so I guess it depends on the test rider.

[@MCCJustMotos]

I guess So. I saw that (and all the other) reviews too. I was underwhelmed in those reviews..not specific at all. I think I had the fortune of riding 4 bikes of the same class (including the caliber) back to back. Thanks for the watch. I’d love to hear what you think if you rode it!

[@peterwilliams3252]

@@MCCJustMotos I have my colibra on order,looking forward to riding it.i have ridden bikes for nearly 60 years so I think I am a good judge of bikes by now and the motor marina is going to be a good,n.

[@MCCJustMotos]

@@peterwilliams3252 i very much think it has some great features and I’m sure you will very much like it. It’s nice to have cruiser bike options at this price!

[@BlueRidgeRider]

First, if I were the marketing department I would call it the “Cali-Bro”😂 I’ll go watch your review of that bike. Do you know if it has a boosted/slipper clutch like the Royal Enfield?

[@MCCJustMotos]

I think it was just a standard cable clutch. Yup Cali-Bro! Haha

[@BlueRidgeRider]

@@MCCJustMotosturns out it is a slipper clutch.
