This is excellent tuition, thanks Teacher T! Clear and understandable voice and explanations, good instructions, good camera, lovely bird whistling in the garden :-). I'll never understand why RE hides the SM650 USB port in the tool/air filter compartment.
That was a really interesting video with loads of transferable skills and information. I went a slightly different way with my addition of a dual USB port. I ran the power from a Healtech "Thunderbox" power management module under the seat, up under the tank to the cable cluster on the right-hand side of the head-stock. I then routed it up to the area just above and to the right of the Tripper (soon to be replaced by the Beeline Moto 2 unit. I designed and 3D printed a mount for the USB unit and had that clamp round the Tripper housing. It's up where I can get to it for plugging in cables and the dual USB socket can be independently powered off when I don't need it. As you say, the area behind that plastic headlight shroud is a mess and I found it really difficult to get the shroud back into place when putting it all back together again. It looked like mine had already been mangled when being put together in the factory.
Thank you Teacher T for sharing such a informative video for parts that outside the box, I've just installed it on my Super Meteor, very nice and easy to fit by following your installation. 😃
@@Teacher-T-Thailand Since it is a Royal Enfield's genuine parts, I basically just go back to the local dealership here in Sydney Australia and ask them with the parts number shown from your video, luckily they happened to have the very last unit in the other state, funny the local dealership here also wasn't sure if it going to fit for the SM650. 🤣However, your video gave me a solid confident and so I insist them to go ahead for the stock transfer, got it after a long wait for 2 weeks and had it installed for just less than 30 minutes. 😁
@@mawill2011 perfect. They are hard to get hold of since my video. Glad you managed to get one. Makes life so much easier having an extra fast charging usb 🙏
FWIW, I just ran a simple 2m Male USB to Female USB cable from the USB outlet in the Toolkit compartment under the tank and to the handlebar. I chose a nice thick cloth braided cable to counter the engine heat. Used some velcro tape to tidy up the loose ends and VOILA! Spent no more than 300 Indian rupees. Of course it is not as neat as the covered outlet of the OEM part, but does the trick! If routed properly, it is quite tidy. Took me no more than 5 mins to do it.
I also attached a simple OBD adapter to the diagnostics port in the battery compartment. I then use the DMD2 app on an Android phone for extended readouts such as RPM, Engine Coolant Temp, Batt voltage etc.
Nice video!!! It's important to have a usb for camera, also with original RE part!!!!! We are waiting for new fantastic videos about Thailand with SM650 !!!!!
Excellent video…I believe the USB on some of the 350 models are on the handlebar..Why the SM650 has it in the area by the tool set is confusing. Would under the tank and under the seat be a good route for a wire? Thanks for posting…
Yes the Meteor 350 has this OEM part pre fitted. This method gives you 2 working usb points. So I can charge phone on either handle bars, or in my pocket with a cable from the side cover. I prefer the later, and then have a usb spare on the handle bars for a camera 🙏
I really don't know. I had to argue, find the part number myself,, and then pay upfront for the part also. Any way, very happy to have 2 usb ports on the bike now 🙏
@Teacher-T-Thailand hears an Idea for a video. Roomer has it the brake pads from a meter 350 are compatible with the super meteor. See if you can get them to work on your bike. Some guys from India says it works some say it dose not.
Royal Enfield parts are in short supply sadly. I can’t even get rear brake pads from my local dealer. 45 day wait. And expensive. So after market HH rated ones will be ordered. Hope you manage to track one down. Works a treat 🙏
Hi Teacher T, I am looking to fit the 350 usb port onto my 650 but I’m having some trouble in obtaining one here in the UK. My RE Dealer said it could take up to four months to get one. How did you get yours and do you have any ideas how I could get one sooner. Many thanks!
Hello and thank you once again for a great video! Please be so kind and help us with a link with the USB port. I cannot find anywhere to buy it. Thank you in advance!
Thank you. That's a shame you can't get hold of the part. Just giving the part number to your local Royal Enfield dealer should be enough.if not, I will try and get hold of some 🙏
Really Thanks ! I have seen on ebay that we can find a "USB CHARGER Fit For Royal Enfield New Bullet 350 & Super Meteor 650" (Seller : 'royal-spares'). I don't know if it's the same part reference and if there is any difference compare to the 350 model.
Hi T, will this usb mod allow fast charging mate? As i have a cable from the USB port near the air filter, but it not USB 3 and only charges at a trickle
👍Thanks. This is as much for the fascinating belt drive video as for the USB video.
You are welcome 🙏
Ohhhh. And thank you so much for the Coffee! 🙏
That's fantastic, good job! I'm sure a lot of Super Meteor owners will find this very useful information indeed 🙂
Thank you. 🙏
Thanks Teacher T, I've just fitted my OEM Meteor 350 USB to my Super Meteor. Went like clockwork, and my screen protects the transformer nicely 😃
Excellent. Pleased to have helped. Can’t be done, but can be done 😂🙏
@@Teacher-T-Thailand No such word as can't 😉

Awesome...love these type videos. Saved yourself about $200 if you had it done here in the USA
Glad you enjoyed it and found it useful. You can always hit that thanks button 😂🙏
Love the way you are improving the bike.
Thank you 🙏
That's a good addition. Awesome!

I've got the RE USB on order, thanks 🙏 I wonder why your Royal Enfield dealer said it won't work, as it obviously does work.
I really don't know. I had to argue, find the part number myself,, and then pay upfront for the part also. Any way, very happy to have 2 usb ports on the bike now 🙏
In Italia non esiste questo come faccio per averlo
Is this a stock part I can get my dealership to order?
Yes it is. Part number in video

Unfortunately cannot find it anywhere in UK. Only on ebay for around... £40 delivered from India.

It does look the same, but far too much money. Better off going to your local Enfield dealer and ordering the part number in the video.
@@Teacher-T-Thailand It was not to order but to see if you think that there is a different. and true, I will see with my local dealer
was the screw m4, m6 or m8
I couldn't tell you unfortunately. I'm not clued up with screw sizes. But it is the same size as the clutch switch screws 🙏
Wish id seen this b4.
Sorry 😀🙏
Well done. It makes NO sense that the cable enters the USB port from the wrong side! Am I missing something? 😅
It doesn’t affect fitting really. May be to blow rain water away from the USB it wet weather? Unsure 🙏
Hi T, will this usb mod allow fast charging mate? As i have a cable from the USB port near the air filter, but it not USB 3 and only charges at a trickle
Yes, I’m sure this is a fast charger 🙏
How many amps does this USB have?
No idea, but it is a fast charger equivalent. 🙏
@@Teacher-T-Thailand
thank you
Is it posible to install un right hand?
Sure. I can't see why not.
It's a shame when I asked the question months ago 😡
Sorry Bob. It always takes a long time to video, edit and then post 🙏
