As I've gotten older, the need for speed has gone from me. So a bike like this is perfect. I really like the Red and chrome Classic 350, as it looks a lot like the old BSA bikes. My only issue is that the chrome would require me to spend time polishing. I think the flat green military Classic 350 would probably be a better option for me. These bikes look really good with knobby on and off road tires, and it gives them more bite on gravel/dirt roads.
A mate of mine has the military classic. Such a nice bike and as you say looks great with knobblys on it...all for under 6k!
First, love the location, I would do that one again and try to make a point about the train, I love trains! Second, you said the best thing you could about that bike! It is the first bike I just want to take when I go out and easy to make U turns and get out and enjoy riding. Who wants highways when you have a bike like that. Wonderful
Yeap, everything is so easy on it...it was designed with passion and they got it spot on.
Ordered one the other day, can't wait to get it next week , just downsizing and want something lighter , great review. 😊
Thanks ,you're in for a treat!
@exeterrider Thank you , My Mate has one the same as yours and he's just done a trip to the I O M with his son who has a 350 Hunter , they both have other bike with bigger capacity, but they love the 350cc Royal Enfield, so they seem to have a good write up and if you can leave your ego at home and live life at a more leisurely pace then I think it's perfect and therapeutic, which is what we all need in this mad day and age 😀 Enjoy and stay shiny side up .
@@carlarthur4442 I bought a bike because this nucklehead we watch test rode a bike I fell head over boots for. W800 cafe. Saw his video and started looking immediately for where I could get one. Watch out for this guy, it might be his eyes ....they make us weak and want to buy motorcycles.... not sure yet. But I do believe, if you like him, and you like what he says, then you will love your new ride. W800 cafe is the best bike I ever have ridden. Just filmed my next video on it today.
Zzzzzzzzzz 🤮🤮the reason you were allowed to keep the bike longer is that no one else wants to ride it! These bikes are gutless, not for me😳
Chrasmatic, comfort, economy, great finish for under 3500.
That's why they have sold so well 👍
Not everyone buys a bike to pretend they’re a GP racer
@@ChadWinters exactly🍻👍
I have owned the Classic 350 for just over 2 years now and have to it’s the best bike I have owned in 54 years of riding. Unless you must travel at 80 miles an hour this is the perfect bike. So well made, reliable and you just relax every ride, no worries about speed limits, as more enjoyable at the lower speeds we have these days. 😊
Couldn't agree more! The value you get from RE is second to none. Money well spent I say. Thanks Pete
Have a 350cc meteor myself ( in the red) for 8 months now, and found it to be excellent, pulling away from a standing start gets up to its 70 mph fairly quickly, but the best is how comfortable the bike is , and handles a dream, all round a brilliant little machine 😊
+1. The comfort is terrific. It's like riding along sitting in your favourite living room chair .. I did 10/11 hrs (700km+) in one go Chiang - Mai to Bangkok and me ass was fine at the end... Had mine a year+. Almost at 30,000km , beyond standard servicing all I've had to repair/replace is two punctures (nails both times) and new brake pads...
She's 🔥 FireBall 🟡 Yellow. Love it to bits .. cheers 🥂
*Crap Game* 🎉
They are probably the best value bike ever made I think. Incredible bikes
Can't wait to get mine sometime next week 😌 🤗
@@carlarthur4442 🥳🥳🥳 Congratulations... You'll love it..!
*Crap Game*
@@Plough78interesting. I’ve been through 3 different seats and just can’t get comfortable. The original is probably the best but I feel slouched and get lower back pain. The touring seat dug into the bottom of my bike, it was like surgery so sore. I’ve now got a custom seat which is poor. Back to original for me.
ha ha --- now s 73 is controlling the level crossings ;;; and the local airfield ;;;
Hes getting out of control .😂
Wouldn't be too surprised with trains going past when parked next to a level crossing. My favourite is the new Bullet 350 but I wish they'd make a 500 for a bit more poke.
Yes I was expecting it but just not so many....and could have done without the plane too lol. I'd like to see a 650 single!
It seems like you lost your train of thought a couple of times 😮
All the time! That's normal for me!
I do like a train ER with the occasional plane.. that’s probably TMF seeing what you’re reviewing…🤣🤣🤣
😂👍
The bike is great I had the meteor 350 from new at 67 passed my full license so first big bike..I did 1200 miles on it and throughly enjoyed it..but sadly lack of power is the killer the 650 is probably the better option, so now looking at the new Vulcan s 2025 model stunning bike.and the Morini callebre …but I would not put anyone off them ..🥂
I understand what your sayiing...I know own one but have other bikes for long distance stuff....but I still enjoy the Meteor more than any of my other bikes for errand running and pleasure rides....The Vulcan is a lovely bike enjoy every moment : )
I can still see one of these ending up in your man cave, ER.
It seems to be a lot of bike for a fairly minimal outlay by comparison with other machines of a similar capacity.
Yeap and nicer to ride....I have come very close a few times to biting the bullet on it Jim...I'll explain next time i see you.
Thanks for the video ( loved the trains 🤣) . I agreed with all you've said , I feel the same about mine . This bike is so much more than the some of its parts . As to the rust , I do my own servicing and always douse the collector box with used engine oil after a wash , it's fine just a little surface rust . I cruise everywhere at 55 and enjoy the ride . 1000 miles trip is no problem including loads of luggage 👍
Well said! Yes I think its a good odea to service your own bike...at least then you get to know it more. The newer Meteors come with better collecter boxes I hear so when mine goes I'll invest in one of them : )
Oh you've got the old exhaust with the huge box under the back of the engine, the new ones don't have it anymore, I removed it from my meteor, and they rust like hell! And I believe a lot of people complained about it, maybe why RE changed the design to eliminate it
Where have they put the box on the new ones Kevin?
They don't its now straight through which it should have been in the first place. I do suspect it might have something in the new pipe though.
@@exeterrider the new version has two cats in the straight pipe behind the heat shield, if you look over the top of the shield you can see em, looks like a snake has swallowed two rats lol
@@kevindarkstar ahh right 👍🍻
Maybe of interest, I have a 2022 Super Nova that I've put 6000 miles on in the past few months, I've looked at the box (that I've seen many comments about) and there is not a spot of rust on it or paint flaking off, why the difference 🤔? I also noticed on the blacked out silencer version they appeared to rust at the the exhaust exit point; nothing on my chrome silencer 🤔?
I now own one of these and have a blacked out exhaust...the CAT will rust on mine at some point soon, They are notorius for it but on the 2024 models they have now moved this to a different position so you should be ok if its a newr model....check out tomorrows video where I have a good suspension fix : )
Great post, I'm getting a new 350 meteor "Stellar" as it has the only colour I like "Dark Blue Metallic" same colour as my previous HD 883 iron, what a bargain at £3299, have been riding 45 years and now is the time... Tail tidy and rear seat removal will be enough to give it the sportster look and feel I am looking for, at literally a third of the price.
Sounds great! They make a black one too I think . Very nice!
The suspension fix is miles ridden when i first got my meteor i planned to change the rear shocks after the run in period but at 2100 miles its become quite luxurious 👍the common term for that is stiction in the shock absorber the front was the but nowhere near as bad but is now becoming very plush , the motor is still getting better as well and the gearbox which is superb by the way is sensitive to chain tension as i found it had lost its feel a bit but i adjusted the chain at 1200 miles and literally couple of mm was all it needed and normal service was resumed
Mines done over 2k now but still not happy with the suspension... Not sure if you have seen my suspension upgrade using hunter shocks but wow, the difference is incredible!
You're right one ofthe first thigs to deteriorate is the catalytic converter, which is why it was the first thing I took of the bike using the bypass pipe,(do not buy the hancocks one) The bike is so much more responsive without the cat and you get another few horsepower and a few more mph.
That's good to know, I may change mine and decat, thanks
Hope you enjoyed SB73 today! I got back to film my next video. Got depressed after the last one I did. But I am back
You may have found the video that depressed you others may have really liked . Often thats the way it goes. Hope your back on track soon dude. you're a top chap!
Great video you obviously love this bike i have just purchased this bike done just 300 miles, watched your previous reviews and cold see your enjoyment of this machine. I havent ridden a motorbike for many years (im 68) and was a bit dubious about it but i have got to say really enjoying it heel gear change was a bit different to what i was use to but soon got use to it thanks again for your reviews.
Glad you like them! and Thanks for watching. It wasn't the meteor at CMS was it?
You can almost see my house form there Steve and you are only a mile or so from St David's station on the main line and I always get stuck there walking the dogs, mind you it is a beautiful place to live and some cracking roads and lanes round there to ride down. I did like the bike when I saw you on it at the meet and ride out with SB73, the colour is growing on me, and I do get it it but I think I would opt for the 650.
It was pretty close!... This was octoberish last year. Lovely summer with that bike 🌞👍
Another good video. You need to buy one of the 350s.
Traded my C500 for a Signals 350 and after three weeks don't regret it.
Fabulous bikes if you have the right mindset set.
It will happen, for sure, just a matter of time I think.
Cracking HST.
👍🍻
What was the mpg you were averaging riding this 350?
Between 100 and 105 UK mpg👍
You have parked next to a level crossing?? 😂
Yeap exactly 🤣
You thing that is small for my height 186 cm?
No it's fine 😎
I have never yet owned a bike without a seemed tank on it 👍😁
😉👍
🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🤣🤣🤣
🚨🚅🚨🚅🚨🚅🚨🚈🚨 🚁 😂😂😂
choo choo!
Ha, planes, trains and automo I'm mean enfields lol
And anti air missiles next video if they keep taking off when im filming.
Short review nice & cool. got home from work and see this after midnight.
Thank you very much from 🇩🇪 to 🇬🇧 😀
Ps: get out of there fast !!! first trains then a plane. whats next ??? a ship falling from the sky 😛
@WilliamAndrewPhilipBodie meteorite, that would be ironic 🤔😂
Always a pleasure 👍
@@exeterrider And the nr 1 video on YT 😀
Impressive that you've clocked up 1100 miles on it mate,although not as Impressive as 4 trains & 1 plane interrupting your work! 🤬🤣👍
I think this colour suits the bike,but we all know red bikes go faster! 😉✌️
Red was never the "in" thing till you got yours John. You're a trend setter for sure
I have this bike / love it
I can see why, fantastic motorbikes 👍
Hah, hah...Planes, Trains - only automobiles didn’t bother your video. Good vid anyway, brother.
I bought my first motorcycle a year ago (-at the age of 63), and I chose a RE Classic from 2014. I’m very satisfied with it, but one of these new 350’s were surely on my list of choice. More modern bike when it comes to equipment, less vibration and more easy to handle because of the size.
I’ve adopted to my beloved Classic 500 and will never sell it on. But if I had the budget & physical space fo 2 bikes, I would probably choose one of these for every day commuting.
It’s a very classy smaller bike😊👍
I'm so glad you got into biking a little later, so many want too, don't, then miss out. And as we know they are missing out on alot!
Well, that was a classic Exeter Rider review! 🤣🤣 You seem to attract 'em wherever you go! you excelled this time though, almost non stop trains and an aircraft as the icing on the cake! You should consider doing a review from a convenient layby our on the Clyst Honiton bypass sometime....... Right under the flightpath of Exeter Airport should be ideal.... what could possibly go wrong? 😁 Anyway, back to the Meteor, The 2024 Lands End Trial at Easter..... Of all the bikes entered, including old Brit trials bikes, Serows, X trainers, CRF 250/300s, Beta Alps, Various Enduro bikes as well as classic and modern Trail/AdVenture bikes, The Field Trophy for best Motorcycle overall was won by Chris Northover riding a 350 Royal Enfield Meteor!! Fair play that man!!! 👏👏👊👌
Yeap, I thought a train or MAYBE two would add to the video ,but I wasn't expecting all that AND then a plane....it worked though .
Chris Northover is a heck of a rider isn't he. I'd be interested in seeing that bike sometime.
I can’t believe you haven’t bought one yet 🤷🏻♂️
Enjoyed the distractions 🤣👍🏼
Well I have it on good authority that he did actually try to buy one, but the seller seemed to have a change of heart.
I'm pretty sure that he'll succumb eventually. He just needs to find the right bike at the right price. But he's getting there ! 😉
I'm putting money aside to buy him those leather chaps for when he does get one. Detachable codpiece optional.
I hope the Social Ride went well Jeff. Sounds like a lot of people were planning on coming 😱
Cheers Jeff,
Garry
There is definately a bee in me bonnet, and it won't go unless I get one. It's hard to concentrate on the things I should be thinking about till I do TBH. You don't know what its like.............................................................................................................................................................................
Exactly that Garry, right bike, right price and at a time when I feel more safe money wise coming in rather than a deficite every month which is doing my head in tbh.
The cod piece you can keep for yourself because I know you French people are a saucy lot, I've seen the films.
Social went well, with some heavy showers but that didn't dampen the tone. I didn't get a lot of footage but will see what I can stitch with what one has.
Areeba
@@exeterrider Saddle and I will be much excite by the prospect of finally welcoming you into the RE legends club Steve 👍🏻
I'll be in touch about our planned trip to that adult novelty store on Sidwell Street in the coming days mate. Just don't tell anyone. It can be our little secret 😇
I'm looking forward to trying a few different things on.
Cheers from France Steve,
Norbert und Dorris.
@@exeterrider Hopefully things will fall into place for you Steve. No point in trying to brute force it. Fingers crossed that things pick up for you soon, because you'll need some extra pocket money for our planned shopping expedition to Sidwell Street, of course.
Don't tell anybody. It can be our little secret 💋
Right, better take Apollo for her walk.
Speak soon !
Dermot in Provence.
You said that you haven't noticed anything different about the bike now that you have put more miles on it. However, the bike that I had did change. When new, riding over large bumps would send a painful thump through the seat, which wasn't comfortable! But after the bike had done about 1,500 miles I realised that the rear suspension had softened and it no longer gave those very harsh thumps. It was noticably better. 🙂
I did a video on suspension up-grade for this bike which may be worth watching...I didn't find it got much better and would prefer different shocks on it myself. but just £100 will sort this out easy : )
Chris has a another nice red meteor 350 on market place only done 900 odd miles. Just thought I would let you know buddy.
Thanks Pete, Yes I am aware he was good enough to let me know. I'm going to take a look. I was after the supernova really but the cost saving is quite good on this one....Thanks for the heads up and it was great to see you : )
Glad you enjoyed it, I've got a Hunter as I preferred the styling but all the comments about laid back easy riding hold true. I'm too old to be tearing around so the J platform suits me just fine, they're all good fun and great value. Cheers.
Well said! I couldn't agree more....I have much more coming soon on the Meteor : )
Nice video mate but I have to report that You Tube hasn't sent me a notification for your videos for over a month , I'm going to have do a manual check every few days which is how I found this one .
Cheers Phil. Yes I still launch a vid every week at 5pm👍
Great public transport in the UK!
I think the 350 j platform bikes make really good every day bikes with the ability to take on long journeys if you are not in the mood to get a hurry up. And because they are a low reving engine even when there maximum they don't feel frantic .
Well worded, I agree whole heartedly👍🍻
You seem quite taken with it. Something you'd want in your garage permanently?
Maybe 🤔😂
as non rider looking at taking their CBT what does not a fast bike mean in car terms? Would it be fast for most average cars? I dont really have an interest in going really fast by I cant really translate CC in my head!
I understand mate-so , imagine a diesel 1.9 van where it has loads of power but its not fast getting there BUT its still fast enough and when going up hill your in a high gear compared to a faster 1.2 fiesta which is faster but you have to go down the gears going up the hill because it has less Torque.
If you thinking of the meteor as your first big bike then I think you're on the right track TBH...it just depends what you want I guess.
I hope that helps.
@@exeterrider I think I get what you mean. Pulls better in most gears but even dropping down it wont have as much speed.
It is, at least along those lines. Obviously I'd be stuck on a 125cc after the CBT but being 6"2 Ill look a bit big on a lot of smaller bikes. Seeing as I'm not looking to speed around and they would probably suit my size a bit better I'm looking cruisers. Lexmoto make a 125cc cruiser. I've heard mixed things about them but my feeling is get it new for £1700 while it has the warranty so if anything goes wrong its covered and I can flog it when I hopefully pass the full test before warranty runs out!
@@Benjohns89 yes, the michigan is a comfy bike.
Go for it mate.... But look after it, keep it clean, the chain oiled etc and most importantly, cover it up at night, don't leave it out in the rain like so many others do, then they complain it trusts.
@@exeterrider plan is CBT before the end of the year and out money away for a bike when the weather improves around spring next year :)
@@Benjohns89 That makes sense. I think its good to get the CBT out the way.... I think it could also be worth you looking into second hand 125cc bikes from Suzuki and Honda etc... The VanVan is a fun comfortable bike for example. Just a thought.
The only thing missing was a brass band marching through 🤣 typical ER .. nice one mate
It wouldn't surprise me if that happens at some point....I think Beadle is haunting me!
😂
Only you could think that filming a video with a lot of narration right in front of a level crossing was a good idea Steve !
Brilliant ! What next ? We've had chainsaws, now trains. Maybe film from the end of the runway at Exeter airport ? Mind you, you'd have to leave the environs of Exmouth to do that, so maybe not, unless you have all of your vaccinations up to date 🤔
The love for the Meteor is strong in this one. We can sense it. We also understand it.
Take care mate, speak soon !
Garry
Or Exmouth airport could be a good one too. Sometimes I dream of a walk around where its so peaceful , and can get it done with no issues....but then I wake up and cry because its another day. 😂
@@exeterrider 😂
Exmouth airport should be quiet enough, 'tis true ! There will be nobody there because, so far, nobody has been able to find it.
Failing that, come to France.
It's dead easy to find a quiet spot over here.
Just go out into our street and shout "Je suis anglais" and everybody runs inside, locks their doors and hides behind the sofa. Perfect piece to camera tranquility is yours.
I did notice that a few train enthusiasts enjoyed the disruptions, so I suppose it wasn't all bad 🙂
Take care monsieur,
Garcel de Meteoreau
Honest review-I think the limiter comes in at 74/5mph, at least it does on mine. A real bargain, currently being offered by Moto gb at £2999 plus otr. You're gonna miss it.
Yeap thats for the Fireball version....Its the supernova I like which is down to £3500 on the road : )
@@exeterrider Still a real bargain at £3,500.
Classical Exeter review .. If there is not noise or interruptions, we will miss them. 😁 .. The bike is brilliant, the engine too. I still miss my classic 350 but think that made a mistake, should of gone for the meteor in red with the top spec .. But it's not healthy to dwell on the past. The thing I don't like is the instrument cluster and it's offset to left location, maybe the headlight too. Looks a bit unfinished like something is missing in the area. The classic is perfect in that regard, but it is not a comfortable seating position as the meteor.
The curse of the E.R (UK based) walkround chat will always be Stefan : ) Fair comment about the clocks etc, not something that bothers me but I see where you're coming from there. The Classic is also a stunning bike, but I'm more a "sit in" than "Sat on" bike type of person, I much like the Meteor as you tell : )
Not everyone wants to ride a mobile road block😞😞
Road block? It will still do the speed limit easy
New subscriber,, look forward to further videos
Awesome! Thank you! I have plenty coming
Lovely bike, good review.
I am so torn about this bike as I like the look of it but a few people have complained about the rear suspension being hard and causing backache.
Check out my suspension upgrade option video , £100 and its sorted....everybody that has done it has been over the moon with the results
Also bumping the preload up 2 notches helps a lot on the standard shocks
Good honest review of the 350 meteor enjoyed yesterday 👍🏍️
It read good to see and ride with you mate. Thanks 🙏
I have the meteor, now I want a high speed train
Don't we all Chad!
I rather liked the disco lights in the background. And trains too!
Really adds authenticity to your comments .
Yes it was a big mistake not adding music to this one tbh. It could have gone viral if I did I reckon.
@@exeterrider you could do an edit and TikTok it! Your sons will be able to tell you what it is😂😂😂😂
I just created an account and already have a few followers 😊 they’re all nubile young ladies who haven’t mastered the art of getting full dressed though 😠😠😠
Perfect🏍️🍻😎
lovely bike ER they're cheap and look cool loving the trains flying by !! 😊😊
I love it, 3.5k on the road ,comfortable, character, good looking , strong.....the bikes not bad either
@@exeterrider
😂😂
Got your name all over it! Just saying!😎👍🏻
So has this candle but I don't want another one PTSD is kicking in...Good to see you today sir. Have a awesome trip to Ireland mate.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 brilliant! Thanks mate, hopefully see you one evening on a group fish & chip run!!😎
I dropped by for the train-spotting and a bike review turned up... Good, honest review from a trustworthy channel
I appreciate that!
Planes, trains and a motorcycle 😅😅😅😅. I do love these, especially in that colour, but against your better judgement, I get a Himalayan on Wednesday. Another great video, thanks.
ahh thats fantastic well done...I hope you have many smiles per miles on it.
Nice one
Thanks 🔥
For being a commuting machine it is just perfect in my opinion.
It would be a life changer for me. Love em 👍🍻
@@exeterrider I get it. I agree. :)
I totally agree with you on the highway. I don’t really want to be going 80-85 on two wheels. So many other reviews are like “ don’t go on the highway it’s not safe you’ll die!” Like there aren’t dozens of cars and trucks going 65-70 in the slow lane. These same people afraid to go 65 MPH due to the danger are whizzing in and out of traffic at 90 assuming no car is going to change lanes in front of them, a far more likely danger than getting run over doing 65
As in the main review I filmed of this bike, I still found myself out in lane 2 over taking the lorrys in lane 1 often...it works ok as a mile muncher I think.
For the experienced rider it’s a fantastic second bike, when you don’t expect too much from it, it continues to amaze you just how capable it is and it’s such fun
It has a magic to it that totally makes me just want to ride it all the time. Its cheap to run as well....many boxes ticked!
An absolute beauty, good for those aging out too.
Yes they are! Good for everything I think. I'd have to keep the NC for bigger runs but this would open many doors👍🍻
My Mrs just got one. Yellow. ex demo with 367 miles on it. £3k. Cool. Lovely bike. Suits my vertically challenged mrs very well. Touring Wales this year.
Good choice!
Good for train spotting tours too!🛤🚝🙂. Hope you all had a good day on the Saddlebags get together.
It was great mate, the rain was on and off but we all made the most it. Thanks
