Excellent review of a great looking motorcycle. I really dislike modern naked bikes with their plastic 'transformer' look and so the look of the Meteor really appeals to me. Hoping to test ride a Meteor soon, my pick is the Stellar. RE have a winner on their hands & will sell millions of these bikes. Probably the only thing you didn't mention was the forward position of the pegs, the low seat height & this was the base of three variants. Thanks for posting.

Rumours are that the 650cc BSA motorcycle is nearing production and will be launched in the UK by the end of the year. It is believed to be a single cylinder motor producing around 50hp and 50 Nm of torque. Will be manufactured in India and assembled in the UK. Launch in India is still not certain, so it may reach stateside even before landing up on our shores. Waiting for its spyshots to appear on the web. The return of Yezdi motorcycles is also eagerly awaited here in India with spyshots of a motorcycle nearing production seen all over the web.

Nice review. I've owned mine a couple weeks now. Looks like the bike you rode might have aftermarket mirrors. Mine are round, and I will probably install some oblong mirrors to get a better rear view. I am going to put some better shocks and seat on mine after the first service. Overall I like mine, but it's really a low performance bike. I will watch closely for a 500cc model. A top speed of 65mph is not ideal where I live.

[@forgottenmotorcycles]

It's a great bike for what it is. Personally, I'd use it as a town bike or even a slower gravel road bike. She's small enough & as plenty of ground clearance to get in and out of places. What color is yours?

[@Free_Ranger_CT110]

With RE's commitment to releasing a new bike every 3 months, maybe it won't be long before a 500cc variant is available. I agree with you about the top end, where I live you need to be able to keep ahead of the road trains.

Had one for about 2 months now and loving it - the only thing that drives me nuts is the short/low angle of the toe shifter. It's impossible to get your toes under there unless you have small feet and you're wearing a slim shoe! I know it's easy enough to use the heel shifter instead, but being forced to use it is a bit annoying. Ah, and the Tripper app is completely useless! Far too buggy and finicky to use.

[@forgottenmotorcycles]

Interesting. I didn't get to try the app in the short time I had the bike. Wondered what it was like to live with. Thanks. On the heel/toe shifter. That's probably going to be a point of contention for a few people and I understand that. Personally, I did like it but I've had them before. You'll have to keep me posted on how the Meteor works out for you. Love that bike!

@@forgottenmotorcycles I really do hope they sort out the Tripper app issues, as it's such a great selling point for a relatively low-cost bike!

I wouldn’t be happy if I was receiving that bike, the running in procedure says it shouldn’t be run at more than 44mph in 5th gear for the first 300 miles. This is very important on Royal Enfield’s as the engines are not run at the factory the way Japanese or European bikes are and if you want to bed the engine components in correctly and ensure the engine runs smoothly and reliably then the procedure needs to be followed carefully. The maximum speeds in each gear given in the owners manual and varying the speed by 10%, avoiding full throttle and not labouring the engine as well as not running it for more than 1 hour continuously are very important.
