Nice review. But do not hesitate to take a wrench to those grips to get them to fit you better. It's not just about comfort, it is about safety. Thanks for the great info. I think I'm going to get one just like yours. 👍
It is true about the LED bulbs. I immediately hated them when they first came out. It felt dangerous driving at night. To compensate for their inferiority they’ve made them extremely bright, so now it seems everyone is driving around with their high beams on. LED’s are a gimmick to get you to pay more for something we’ve always had in the first place.
Another excellent video. I like how you have the music so soft in the background. Good interview. I usually don't watch videos this long, but always watch yours. Hope you got to ride it, I want to. You are very talented. Keep it up. Thank you. Oh, I have over 15,000mi/24,000km on mine INT650.
@@MotorcyclistDiaries You know I've thought about that. You and others are such good TH-camrs then I listen to mine and I sound depressed, that I'm getting ready to jump off a bridge. But since you mentioned it I will think about it some more. I value your opinion. I'm heading down to Boca Chica Texas and the Rocket Ranch campground to check out SpaceX and she rolled over 16,000mi/25,700km yesterday.
Please don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to teach you or something. I was comparing myself to different TH-camr's and felt depressed as well because there always will be somebody who is kind of a "better". I learnt that hard way that "comparing" is a "Big NO NO". We all are different and unique and have different perspective and vision, experience, soul and talents. There is simply no one like you in whole World who can make review your own way, the way you like it. Truly saying I get into that trap of comparison sometimes and I continuously work on that. On "Being Free" of other peoples opinion judgements and authority or influence. 25K kilometers! C'mon man! Who can possibility to ride Boca Chica Texas checking out SpaceX now?!))
Nice review buddy... enjoyed it very much I would recommend to change the current thumbnail because it doesn't match with the quality of the video..a simple portrait of the bike would suit well i guess.... anyways cheers for the amazing video
i am 172 cms. i added handlebar riser(from bandidos pitstop). and it feels even more comfortable. i just did a 4500 km ride and it was perfect. and i agree an option of footboard would make this a perfect cruiser
we have two meteor350 at home. one mine and my wife. she is a new rider and loves this. she learnt to ride on my RE Bullet 350. I moved from RE Bullet-Electra 350 to this but its my 4th bike. i wanted to go for interceptor650, higher price aside. it just missed out on small things. alloys wheels/tubeless tyres/ and riding comfort. meteor won easily.
I am the owner of the meteor 350 fireball yellow the experience it a very comfortable machine I jump from Kawasaki 110 as well. It not scary you is u a new rider.
At first I wanted the Fireball Yellow, too! 😄 But then I actually bought the Stellar Black, 2022 model…it’s gorgeous! I think your friend needs to find a different RE dealer. Bulb goes out after a couple of days and they don’t replace it for free? Come on! Handlebar adjustment? A piece of cake! Don’t touch it? WTF? Your friend is very sympathetic, very well spoken and described my experience with the Meteor, so far (except for the poor dealer service!), to a tee 👍 Sewing machine sound…perfect description! Great video…thank you 🙏
Yes, It’s True… Then LED Light Is Bright And Some Wide And Won’t Go That Far… But, Halogen Lights Are Brighter Wider And Also Cover More Far Then LED Lights… That’s Why Every Royal Enfield Bike Have Halogen Lights…
gearing is interesting. 1st and 2nd is short. 3rd is perfect for city cruising. 4th for highway cruising and 5th when you dont need to overtake anything (downshift to 4th) and yes 1st gear is clunky sounding.
I like the style of your videos... I'm between this one and a Honda twister 250, same speed, built quality seems RE is better? Would you say the Meteor is a better build than the Himalayan? Seems RE is improving in that aspect. The Twister is built in Brazil fit and finish is so so, and seems it has less fuel efficiency around 27 km x L. Would have loved to get your impressions on the ride not just from the bud. I'm older so I kind of like relaxed driving, and fuel efficiency, going for long rides without having to think on a fuel budget.
Overall finishing is pretty good. I don't know about quality of this bike, telling about quality I mean quality of metal alloy I wish it was improved comparing to Himalayan.
Liked the review, and I think the bike is very nice either. Interesting names and accent, are you of Russian-Korean decent? If so, I salute you again, from the Middle East, but born in the USSR. About the costs - Importers love to throw ridiculous prices, to keep warranty usually you must use a licensed mechanic shop, but check the small print, maybe a regular licensed mechanic can legally fix it.

Yes it did). But owner said that it looked cheap and colors didn't match the appearance of the bike. So he removed it and gave me advice if someone try to remove it, tell them that they shouldn't use special sticker removers, rub with fingers it is much better))

Need to replace a all lines with it) but mb someday I’ll put bar risers or more crushish hd style of handlebar))

I just now noticed the laminar vent in the windshield. I had not realized that was there. That should greatly reduce buffeting and backdraft.
Looks like a fun bike.
Great review! Thank you, its answer all my questions

@@MotorcyclistDiaries THANK YOU! I truly appreciate your words and for taking the time to express your thoughts.
Great production as usual 👍
Thank you Jim!
What a real nice guy. Enjoyed this. Thank you
and surprisingly rides very good on gravel/pebble/ small rock roads.
Best Bike Review ever... Thanks man!!
Thank you 🙏
I love your videos dude. So relaxing and full of interesting points of view. Please again! (I'm going to purchase a used Himalayan bs4!)
Glad you like them!

The 650cc Meteor will be called Super Meteor and will be displayed at the EICMA show in Italy at the end of November.
I hope so. I believe that 650cc engine fits better that kind of bike.
@@MotorcyclistDiaries Exactly. Will definitely be better to cruise around.
Thanks. Very good review.

Thanks bro 😎
~ Very nice video . . . Cheers!
Thank you Troy!
Awesome review, please come up with more such videos.
Excellent video.
Thank you Rolando!
Dude, great review although the amount of TH-cam ads on this one was higher than the topspeed of this bike.
Ahaha thanks! 🤣, set by auto it’s not me! Tssss 🤫 it is TH-cam 😄

this bike is perfect for riding hours at about 90-100 kmph.

here in india we get halogen bulb in headlights not LED. weird!
Владимир, гуд джоб!)
Спасибо!)
my wife experiences the 2nd and neutral issue. i dont. but its probably just needs lube in the clutch cables.
Why You choosed Royal Enfield instead Hyosung??? Nice video regards from Poland
Hope owner will answer you. It's not my bike.
Oh come on! Seriously royal enfield is a 120 year old continuous production motorcycle company with a huge amount of heritage, Hyosung just can't compete with this
I guess you’re joking)) the housing have only 250) and the meteor looks much better LMAO
Royal Enfield is the most admired company in India
No
👍👍👍
Shouldn't the side panel have the meteor name on it?
Yes it did). But owner said that it looked cheap and colors didn't match the appearance of the bike. So he removed it and gave me advice if someone try to remove it, tell them that they shouldn't use special sticker removers, rub with fingers it is much better))
Yeah I’ve removed it and put other stickers) I didn’t like font type and red color of original stickers.
sorry for spamming your comments
No worries as far as you don't put any links on adult sites))
brake pads are cheap for a bike this pricing. could have better quality.
Топчик!
나랑 같은 성향의 바이커이시네 ㅋㅋ
350cc full size motorcycle? 👌😜
Why not?))
@@MotorcyclistDiaries exactly, you don't have to have a thousand cc to enjoy your rides 👍🏻
4 beginner like me - 100%!
Because it’s heavy like a real bike and have a clutch)) scooter boys definitely need to try this bike. Smooth like butter.
g5ot one on order in brown. g5ood review.
Thank you ☺️
