Hi there, Cruiser format has the personality of breaking your back, classic is the best in that regard. However, the classic didn't fit me well given my body dimensions + classic looked a bit small with my body type. So all in all this is the weakness of the meteor. But but !! As people say if there is a problem then there is a solution. I have made 2 videos on the modifications and links are given below 👇. My ride is very comfortable with these mods. 1. Suspension Upgrade: ua-cam.com/video/cvJYz9xgGJ0/v-deo.html 2. Touring Modification: ua-cam.com/video/Bdh7XXa3V7Y/v-deo.html
I have booked meteor 350 supernova blue E20 version and waiting for its delivery which will happen day after tomorrow and ua video just made me realize that I have made ta best choice coz I also had a ktm rc200 before now I have switched from ta same😎
Congratulations 🎉🎉 bro ... More miles to you both. Yeah, you will love it if you have proper expectations set. It's a good buy. I don't regret it at all. Thank you 🙏😊 for the support... Keep riding bro ✊🏍️
For pillion it's comfortable but for riders it depends on the individual. Because of the strict riding ergonomic your tail bone takes all the abuse. Take a rental bike if possible and ride it with a pillion at least for 100 kms to figure out the comfort matching.
I have bought a new meteor 350. I have covered around 2500kms. But somehow i feel crossing 80speed limit on the bike is not very easy. Engine starts feeling over done! Is it because I haven’t done my 2nd service yet?
Hi, I wanted to check about the feedback for pillion. If you dont mind me asking, what does your wife say about the ride quality? Is it comfortable for Bangalore traffic and long rides? Also please let me know your perspective as well!
Hi there , The stock bike's Pillion comfort is kinda compromised. The ergonomics are great but the space and seat , they aren't ideal however there are mods available. My bike is fully customised and you can watch that video for more information. My wife is happy with the modifications and meteor suspension works great with Pillion.

Hi bro, I’m planning to fix auxiliary light for metro that has yellow low and high beam for night ride, which light would you suggest that is not very heavy on the wallet. Also I need a non magnetic tank bag that can store the essential and a set of clothes. Thanks
Hi . Mera abhi bhi stock exhaust e hain. Changing exhaust is illegal, chalan hoga agar police pakar liye to. But lagana hai then try the red rooster brand.
How was the meteor on bad roads? Can it handle small potholes , speedbreaker strips (2-4 in a row),gravelly/mountaious roads reasonably well? I know its a cruiser and not meant for that, but still how robust is the overall machine at handling the aforementioned?
It can handle rough roads pretty well. I have been through many bad roads nothing happened so far. For single ride suspension may feel stiff but with Pillion it works pretty well. Also I use the fego air seat and ride with 1 psi less than what is recommended tyre pressure for both the tyres. Also as you ride more you develop skills to tackle those rough roads. Check out my other videos which might solve your doubts .
Hellow dada, video ta besh short n precise. 👍👍. Ekta bishoy janar chilo. Apni most probably gopro hero 8 use korchen helmet a. Super view te apnar duipaser rare view mirror duto dekha jacche. Kintu ami super view use korle mirror ashche na. 😢
Excellent video man ! I have a meteor 350 and want to start Moto vlogging . Can you guide me / do a video on equipments, safety gear , riding care and other things to take care of while doing rides? Keep making videos like these . I subscribed !
It is comfortable. I did a couple of modifications which made the longer journeys smoother and effortless. In the city you will be surprised how good the frame is . Take a test ride bro, hope you will like it. Thank you 😊 for watching!! Cheers
If Dominar is an apple 🍎 then meteor is an orange 🍊. Both are 2 wheelers but situated at extreme ends of the spectrum. It's on you what you like if you like high compression fast VFM machine go for Dominar if you like to pull and feel the thump then go for RE Both are good bikes in their own terms. But I agree the Dominar needs an update Bajaj is busy with triumph and KTM
Needed a chill out machine, a machine with comfortable saddle for Pillion. Duke is highly stressed out mad machine which I used to like but my priority changed post marriage. I don't ride over 95kmph and new gen re is just perfect for that.
With Pillion it is somewhat comfortable, The stock setup is not that comfortable but my bike is heavily modified for my touring needs. Currently I am running on older classic nitrox suspension which made a day and night difference. Spring suspension last long and it is designed to carry loads hence with Pillion and luggage the stock one performs better.
All 350s and Himalayan 411 has decent stopping power if not good . But it's not like a lesser sharp one. I don't like the break feel but I got used to it. Having said that you can use interceptor brake pads which are far better but a little bit expensive.
I am confused which one I should buy duke 250 or meteor 350 fireball. I have to ride from office to home in Bengaluru on weekdays and on weekends I will go to max 150-200 km. Could you please help in deciding the one?
You are at the right place Mate. I used to own d250 bs4 then shifted to meteor 350 bs6. Both are equally good in their own rights. Duke is a street naked angry stressed out machine. RE is a chill out comfortable cruiser. Riding RE is effortless due to heavy torque in low revs. Ktm always wants you to push . Meteor has a bigger road presence and is comfortable like a car. Mileage wise meteor is way better. Engine refinement is also good. A rentals for both the bikes and go for 100 kms ride and check what fits you better. I am very happy with Meteor. KTM is for speed and RE is for comfort.
I thought it was self explanatory, my benchmark was 700 kms in a day ( which i mentioned in the intro) if the bike wouldn't have been good then we would have stopped in Between.
I thought it was self explanatory. we did it, 700 ks without any problem so ride quality has to be that good (sort of). So far I have covered 7000 kms on the odo. A detailed video dedicated to ride quality is in the making & coming this weekend 🙏
Nope it wasn't. Right after buying the motorcycle I had modified the seat by extending the backrest and increasing the width of the seat. Please check out my touring mod video for more details. Thank you 🙏
CB 350 may be better in some cases but when i test rode I felt more connected than with meteor. Pata nai kaya hai, but there is something which highness is missing out. AAP test ride karlo and then decide.... Thank you 😊 for watching
Bhai i did 450 km in a day my butt hurt like hell my tailbone please dont ask about it…. Kindly give some suggestions… to avoid this

Just have one question how is the comfort of bike for such long ride for rider as well as pillion
For pillion it's comfortable but for riders it depends on the individual. Because of the strict riding ergonomic your tail bone takes all the abuse. Take a rental bike if possible and ride it with a pillion at least for 100 kms to figure out the comfort matching.

But somehow i feel crossing 80speed limit on the bike is not very easy. Engine starts feeling over done! Is it because I haven’t done my 2nd service yet?
Don't worry, it will go away as time passes through. The bike will have more composure once it crosses 5k on the odo.

Try the hjg fog lamps ... It's easy on the pocket. As per as non magnetic goes try Guardian Gears bag. You can get it in Amazon

Can i install grandpitshop pillion air seat on my meteor 350 without opening the whole rear seat??
Please answer
Actually it would be very unsafe and it needs to be anchored properly.
Nice video .... What made you switch from Duke 250 to Meteor 350?
Needed a chill out machine, a machine with comfortable saddle for Pillion. Duke is highly stressed out mad machine which I used to like but my priority changed post marriage. I don't ride over 95kmph and new gen re is just perfect for that.

Is the back suspension comfortable for longride compared to other bike with monosuspension r15,suzuki etc
With Pillion it is somewhat comfortable,
The stock setup is not that comfortable but my bike is heavily modified for my touring needs. Currently I am running on older classic nitrox suspension which made a day and night difference. Spring suspension last long and it is designed to carry loads hence with Pillion and luggage the stock one performs better.
How is breaking system? Is it good? I heard that its not that good
All 350s and Himalayan 411 has decent stopping power if not good . But it's not like a lesser sharp one. I don't like the break feel but I got used to it. Having said that you can use interceptor brake pads which are far better but a little bit expensive.

Pillion seat is very much cramped. It must be very uncomfortable for pillion especially after that long journey in meteor 350.
Nope it wasn't. Right after buying the motorcycle I had modified the seat by extending the backrest and increasing the width of the seat. Please check out my touring mod video for more details. Thank you 🙏
