I bought mine two weeks ago and have done over 800km already. I love this thing! Here in New Zealand we have a benign climate and endless windy, hilly backroads for which the Meteor is ideal. The handling, braking and suspension are perfect for this, although the power output is a bit marginal for the freeway. But who wants to sit on freeways all day? It's nicely put together and the detail & quality is excellent. Some established manufacturers need to be very very worried because RE is going to eat their lunch!
@@jeffh8840 Hi, Royal Enfield bikes have been used by the Indian Army since 1950's and on all types of terrains across Indian Subcontinent, from planes to the Himalayas, from desert to Marsh lands. Don't worry RE can handle whatever you throw at them.
@@brokeguy5607 regardless of what label YT stuck on the video, we most certainly were NOT paid by Royal Enfield to ride/review the Meteor. The “paid promotion” was Law Tigers, sponsoring the production.
If you like their bikes or not, but it needs to be cherished how well Royal Enfield revived itself and amps up their game to establish themselves as the "affordable but stylish and fun" brand, I just love what a unique and fairly successful approach RE took to tab into the market
Just waiting for my Meteor Stellar in red to arrive. As I am gone 74 and with knees that don't cope too well with my 750 Honda F2r's weight any more this bike is a "hop on and ride for the fun of it" machine. The finish and detail on them is FAR above what RE used to be capable of.
I saw lot's of royal enfield meteor 360 review also our Indian review's.....but man this is the best review i ever seen...on this topic....lot's of love from India (West Bengal)
Ha ha, I just bought the song (Laurel Leaves by Modern Aquatic) on iTunes and added it to my motorcycle playlist. Actually bought a few of their songs. Never heard of them before.
The 350 and 650 bikes of RE could very well become great sellers in the western countries as commuter bikes. A shame Harley and Indian don't tap into this segment with a few quality models.
Harley had bikes in those segments back in the 1960s-early 70s, in their AMF years, and they sold well for them. To capture a new generation of riders, I agree, smaller more affordable machines are the future.
Looks a great bike! I have the 650 Interceptor (UK spec). That is a fab bike but this is even better with digital gear indicator etc. RE have really caught the mood of biking. Good for them!!!!
and Triumph...Sooo expensive and not even made in the uk no more.That's why i bought the interceptor and not the street twin..3000 pound more expensive but in my opinion not 3000 pounds better.
Its predecessor THUNDERBIRD 350 was a super hit in India. And now the Meteor 350 is following that bright path here. Many people prefer Royal Enfield (be it thunderbird or classic or meteor or interceptor or Himalayan..) for their dream trip to Ladakh. Because, Royal Enfield has service centers everywhere in India, also at a altitude of 10,000 feet ( Leh)...
Thunderbird was superhit? Lol. Thunderbird was widely known as the worst RE model. The bike had several issues and sales were poor. Thunderbird was a rare bike on the road.
@@spiritofe629 He is talking about cruisers not comparing it with the other RE motorcycles. India never had that many cruisers. So to put it short there was never a great competition present. What else would have people picked? A Bajaj avenger? Thunderbird had the highest sales amongst all cruisers so yes in its category it was always the leader
I like your review man. I'm just new into the motorcycle world and planning to purchase this as a newbie. The freedom from riding a bike is just different. Ride safe, from the 🇵🇭
Bike is really good and easy to maintain. Spare parts are not very expensive. I personally own Interceptor 650 BS-6 but in my group my friends own Metor and have done 10k plus without any problem in high altitude and rainy season here in India, Mumbai.
It feels great that I also have the same bike and I got it delivered 3 days back and the experience is way better than expected....btw great review brother 👍❤️
I rode a 500 cc Triumph trophy for years in the 70's and this bike looks like a blast. Nothing wrong with the small engine as long as the bike fits the rider.
Loved the review! Amazing content supported by nice background scores. Just one thing. ByBre stands for By Brembro. Brembo Brakes would be BreBra which would be a lot more fun to say out loud.
@@roaddirttv Hello Rob, I have a question, I have small health concerns (joint problems), between the Meteor and the Himalyan which offers the most comfort? I have the impression that the Meteor holds the lower back better and that the legs are more relaxed. What do you think about this ? Thank you for your advice.
@@jlo1446 Meteor seat feels like you're sitting in a sofa, Himalayan feels like a firmly cushioned wooden chair. But Meteor's sitting posture doesn't allow much room to move around in case you get uncomfortable in a long ride.
Luckily I got mine in 2 weeks. Booked in Feb'21. Can't help thank the guy who cancelled his booking, that got me bumped up the list. Else I had a delivery date of June 😳
Such a beautiful review! Loved the background song track, loved the scenic beauty! All these makes me wanna go on a ride seriously which none other video made me feel so. ❤️ Take love and support from India 🇮🇳
Its good to see Indian companies like RE and Mahindra doing good in the US . Their products are bot like the cheep Chinese knock offs . Their products are time tested and sturdy and at a very good price range.
Good review man, booked the same colour in Jan but due to the lockdown I couldn’t get it from the showroom, for the paper work is still pending, hope I will get it in another 6 days.
I bought the 2021 Meteor in Stella Red summer from Motozilla and love it. I thought it’s all I’d ever need at the young age of 70! (However, I bought a Rebel 500 in 2017 and said the same thing!) Now the Rebel is sad because she never sees me! I think she will find a nice home when I trade her in (hopefully soon) for the new 2022 Royal Enfield Classic 350 Signals Edition! (Same engine and frame as the Meteor but way more RETRO)! Speaking of age, watch Ol’Man Ronin’s channel about his undying love for the Meteor 350 (he was a big Harley guy until last year!) Anyhow, you said it all when you said the Meteor was “Hilariously Fun!” Best description in any amount of words! Nice job!
love from india sir my meteor is 3 days old and just as you said this bike make the rider to want for more ride. Every morning i am hyped to ride this gentle beast 👍 great video .
s Stuart Fillingham in the UK says, this bike appeals to muliple, intelligent personalities, regardless of their sex or experience as motorcyclists. I got my Fireball Yellow Meteor 350 on September 20th, and I LOVE IT! I'm an older, retired, and experienced rider. I owned 11 bikes before my Meteor, including a 1999 Kawasaki ZRX1100. I've had big fast bikes; I've been there, done that, and lived to tell about it! Now? I just want to do some lazy crusing on local back roads here... :) In addition to the types of riders you mentioned (who'd like the RE Meteor 350), there's another class or rider many reviewers miss: older riders like me who've downsized. When you get older, your mind and body change. You also have greater appreciation of how much longer it takes to recover from injuries. We want something lighter, easy to manage, economical to own & operate, and fun! My neighbor across the street, who retired today, also got himself a Meteor 350; he downsized from a Yamaha Venture. Anyway, don't forget us older riders who've downsized our rides. We want to keep riding, but we don't need something big, fast, and expensive anymore; we don't need to prove anything. We just want to enjoy the ride... :)
Great word, Marky. And we didn’t forget older riders, who choose to downsize for various reasons. We mention them in our article on the bike- roaddirt.tv/struck-by-a-meteor/ Glad you’re riding one, Marky! Rock on!
Love to see the way you enjoy your ride on re meteor 350, can't wait to get my hands on this! With that music in my head 🎶❤️ really liked your review 🙏
This video showed up on my YT recommendation list. Man, I had the urge to buy this bike after your review - lol. Loved everything about this review! Even loved the music- had to buy it on iTunes and put it in my motorcycle playlist - haha.
Very cool! Glad you found us! Hope you like, share and subscribe- check out our other bike reviews- more on the way! Oh, and we agree, the Meteor is an awesome value motorcycle. Glad you liked the tune!
America is so proud of there 1000cc cruisers for no reason.. These 350cc thumpers have crossed the most dangerous high altitude terrains ever, and are still continuing to do so.
It is! Interestingly, we learned that RE has a specific exhaust note they’ve worked hard to achieve with this single, a distinctive sound they engineered. Kind of like how Harley engineers their big twins to emit a hallmark note as well. We liked the RE pipe note too, for sure.
I'm on my 7th HD, mine costs 30k+, and I am still loving these little RE bikes! Simple, classic, and fun. But at 6'4" tall...probably will never get one as fun as they seem to be.
We get a lot of folks asking if someone over 6’, 200+ lbs would be comfortable on a bike of this size and displacement. We usually point them to the Interceptor or Continental GT 650s, yet we’ve also heard from many in your height/weight range who’ve ridden, purchased, and love the Meteor. Best thing to do is just go get a test ride, see what you think. We love all the bikes in the RE range. Affordable, but very quality-built.
I have seen a review by a guy in Germany who is 191 cm (6'3"). He said it is perfectly comfortable for him, and his riding position looked very relaxed.
hope everyone know there is a custom selection in RE Meteor lucky I choose Fireball black and looking forward to it such a lovely bike and your review clear all my clouds regarding Meteor Thanks
Nicely shot video. But you don’t mention a single downside or negative aspect to the bike. The video really gives me the impression that it’s a paid advertisement. I’ve watched a bunch of Meteor reviews and even the positive ones still point out the trade offs to get such a low cost bike. I’m still thinking of getting one though :)
It is indeed a great Bike from RE. I've done a detailed review of this bike in my native language channel and the owner is really happy with its performance. A Huge improvement from RE from its old product lines .
Great, honest review, lovely background score. Made me feel happy and refreshed. Would have loved to know your opinions on the limitations of this motorcycle. PS: Indian reviewers put heavy metal into the review of even a 125cc scooter!
watched this video twice..very well shot and such a positive aesthetically pleasing and amazing review..you got yourself a fan and a subscriber, LOVE from INDIA :-)
Agreed. Snagging a page right out of Triumph’s playbook. We’re catching wind of a 650 twin cruiser at some point soon... but you didn’t hear that from us.
@@chayanmitraful INDIAN OWNED ...METEOR WAS FIRST INTRODUCED IN 1953 BY BRITISH ENGINEERS...INDIAN ROYAL ENFIELD DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ENFIELD...IT LOOKS MORE COPY OF TRIUMPH THAN ORIGINAL BRITISH ENFIELD MODELS
Its funny the trip navigations and usb charging systems are standard for all new bikes for Royal Enfield, starting with the meteor. while these system are optional after market extras on other cruisers. No i do not work for Royal Enfield, I already two bike from them and waiting for the 650 versions of this
In fact it does have a center stand! We failed to mention that in the story. Never found a USB port, and to get under the seat(s) is a bit of a chore. Have to unscrew the 4 Allen bolts securing the rear grab rails/backrest, remove it, then the passenger seat pops off. Then two bolts secure the driver seat, to give access underneath. No real room under the seat for storage. The two side panels come off with relative ease, and that’s where access to the battery, tool kit and some electronics are located.
@@roaddirttv there is a keylock to be seen on the right side under the seat. I wonder what that's for? Here in Germany the Meteor is expected until end of April, but I guess it might be delayed. Sure will have a look.
@@svendura1 we found that to be the location of the tool kit, and several electrical couplings. Check out our details here- roaddirt.tv/struck-by-a-meteor/
Rob, Where is this place where you rode the Meteor? The roads sure looked like roads I've been on, but can't be for sure. Sometimes all roads look the same.
I bought mine two weeks ago and have done over 800km already. I love this thing! Here in New Zealand we have a benign climate and endless windy, hilly backroads for which the Meteor is ideal. The handling, braking and suspension are perfect for this, although the power output is a bit marginal for the freeway. But who wants to sit on freeways all day? It's nicely put together and the detail & quality is excellent. Some established manufacturers need to be very very worried because RE is going to eat their lunch!
Great word, Andrew! We’d love to come ride NZ with you someday. Dream trip for us Yanks. Glad you love the Meteor, fantastic bike.
Hi. I am in NZ too and thinking about the Meteor. Have you ridden yours on any metal/gravel roads? If so, how did it handle them?
@@jeffh8840 Hi, Royal Enfield bikes have been used by the Indian Army since 1950's and on all types of terrains across Indian Subcontinent, from planes to the Himalayas, from desert to Marsh lands. Don't worry RE can handle whatever you throw at them.
That's what motorcycling was all about, before the Greed kicked in to companies who are just making 900 - 1200 cc bikes,which are expesive,heavy.
Exactly onky the thing s msn needs is a decent engine and the will.to.ride.no need.for too much power
Exactly! Constantly filling it up. And it isn't as practical around town!
This is probably the most positive review of a RE motorcycle. Some diss em, some just ride em n have a good time. Cool review dude👍

In the U.K. the Meteor is being reviewed by riders of 6ft 3 and 6ft 4 who not only love the ride but say it is comfortable and fits them as well.

Thanks! We agree, great little cruiser.
Great, honest review, lovely background score. Made me feel happy and refreshed. Would have loved to know your opinions on the limitations of this motorcycle. PS: Indian reviewers put heavy metal into the review of even a 125cc scooter!
lol..true
watched this video twice..very well shot and such a positive aesthetically pleasing and amazing review..you got yourself a fan and a subscriber, LOVE from INDIA :-)
Thank you! And welcome!
So excited with what RE are doing. If they expand their offerings a bit they're gonna sweep the rug from under Triumph. They need a 650 twin cruiser.
Agreed. Snagging a page right out of Triumph’s playbook. We’re catching wind of a 650 twin cruiser at some point soon... but you didn’t hear that from us.
The existence of this bike on the NA market means that the big 4 need to step up their small displacement game. Plus it’s so affordable!
Agreed.
I'm a new rider. I purchase this bike for my starter bike and oh boy I love it
Excellent! Welcome to the moto fold, and you’re on a great machine.
I am waiting it to arrive in Brazil...
there is RE India factory video online.....their craftmanship is impressive
We’ve seen that. You’re right, quite impressive.
Nice little vid. Cheers
This is my brand and my country, my India 🇮🇳 lots of 💘 from India 🇮🇳.
IT IS A BRITISH BIKE
Enfield is a British as well as Indian too brother.
We love Royal Enfield sooo much
@@chayanmitraful INDIAN OWNED ...METEOR WAS FIRST INTRODUCED IN 1953 BY BRITISH ENGINEERS...INDIAN ROYAL ENFIELD DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ENFIELD...IT LOOKS MORE COPY OF TRIUMPH THAN ORIGINAL BRITISH ENFIELD MODELS
@@Mo-xx9gg TRIUMPH IS OLDER ...RUNNING FROM 1887
I bought it one month ago, very exiting ride this bike

India RE Fandom: "We have been summoned" 🏍️
It's such a beautiful motorcycle with an amazing review.
Looks like a great bike to cruise out to the DZ on and back 🪂🛩
I'm keen on getting the black meteor myself!
It was a pleasantly surprising fine motorcycle.

I bought the 2022 Mr Clean Continental GT650 instead! 😎
@@P51D-Mustang oh man, what a fantastic bike! Congrats!
First video from US
Yup, thrilled to get an early preview of it over here.
Its funny the trip navigations and usb charging systems are standard for all new bikes for Royal Enfield, starting with the meteor. while these system are optional after market extras on other cruisers. No i do not work for Royal Enfield, I already two bike from them and waiting for the 650 versions of this
Great video !
Thanks! We enjoyed shooting and putting it together.
Thank you for this fun review! I will be getting one of these very soon.
Hoping the meteor 650 version that they are working on will make it into the states.
Loved the music 🙋 new sub liked your video Sir.
Thank you!
Already booked🔥 Waiting😎
Bro.. iam not able to make mind whether to sell my classic 350 and buy meteor or not !!
I love this bike dude❤️
Good work. Thanks for sharing. Thumbs up!
I wonder if it has a center stand, an USB-port and if the seat can be lifted in order to store some tools?
In fact it does have a center stand! We failed to mention that in the story. Never found a USB port, and to get under the seat(s) is a bit of a chore. Have to unscrew the 4 Allen bolts securing the rear grab rails/backrest, remove it, then the passenger seat pops off. Then two bolts secure the driver seat, to give access underneath. No real room under the seat for storage. The two side panels come off with relative ease, and that’s where access to the battery, tool kit and some electronics are located.
Yes it does have the USB-port underneath the clutch lever and a center stand.
@@roaddirttv there is a keylock to be seen on the right side under the seat. I wonder what that's for?
Here in Germany the Meteor is expected until end of April, but I guess it might be delayed. Sure will have a look.
@@svendura1 we found that to be the location of the tool kit, and several electrical couplings. Check out our details here-

@Royal Enfield North America interesting place for it. I’ll go have a look 👀.
Rob, Where is this place where you rode the Meteor? The roads sure looked like roads I've been on, but can't be for sure. Sometimes all roads look the same.
Much of the footage in the video was shot around Monroe, Georgia, Gene.
It's an amazing bike, I have test ridden it. But I am waiting for the new classic 350. I have an old classic 350 but Waiting for new one.
Will RE put this engine into the Classic 350?
@@khaccanhle1930 yeah, what I have heard is that They have built New classic based on the new "J" platform, which they have used in meteor 350.
@@khaccanhle1930 Yeah the new Classic 350 will have the same underpinnings and engine. It is about to debut anytime now here in India.
