Super thanks to Hitesh for sharing his ownership experience!
If you want to share yours too, do let me know on Instagram!
Thank you Dhanil and Motorbeam
Hey Dhanil please come with more ownership reviews.
Bro i had one meteor fireball red and i got around 40 kmpl milage I’m very happy with that 😇
am i the only one who finds it more attractive without windshield
Me too!
Yeah, without wind visor is my choice too
Thanks for this review...it helped me a lot 😊
I used meteor for 1000km and I got a factory fitted touring seat which really really sucks. I and my brother got issues with that touring seat and we found that normal seat is more comfortable than this so called touring seat.
I Own meteor fireball Yellow.
Very happy with the purchase. Super Comfortable for long drives.
My favourite is tripper Navigation. It's game changing feature. Just connect once and navigating is easy.
Getting mileage around 34-36 both highways and city .
Smooth sailing on 90-100 kmph
Is it good for short rider height and how much is the weight?
@@abhirai6124yes I'm 5'7 and my bith legs are touching the ground
OMG i was waiting for this for so so long 😎!!!
Royal Enfield Meteore rocks 🔥
I'm a meteor 350 owner and I'm fully satisfied . 10/10 🔥♥️
Servicing cost and mileage?
@@kapilpradhan1679 first servicing coast 1500 and second is 1700 . Slightly on higher side . And millage between 30 to 37 depending on your riding style and road.
@@risingwarrior7451 Which colour you have?
@@akpandey2395 Matt black
@@risingwarrior7451 I hear from a lot of people that after 1-2 year matte black becomes dull
Hitesh you inspire me again.......this time to buy a bike for my husband......your choice is good.👍
Happy to own one 🖤🖤 meteor custom fireball black ❤️
Does it has any heating issues ?
Does it has any scratch issues?
Mine is in fireball white. BEST DECISION EVER. 🔥❤️
@@VV-fo7lu nope, heavy traffic (more than 20 mins at a time WILL heat up the engine). As long as you can cross 40kmph not much.
@@askarmetha8917 Yup, tank is very susceptible to scratch, either coat or protect it. I just leave it as is though (polish it during servicing).
Done a good job bro.Covered all areas that I need to know.
Great choice 👍
great video again...
Bro is the touring seat customisation available for pillion/backseat as well??
Planning to buy this at the age of 17
Omg i also own meteor and i didnt knew there is a charging point holy shit thax 🔥❤️
Lol
Need a detailed service schedule and costs of this bike for next 3-5 years.
What a coincidence, my previous bike was also honda shine which I used for 300+ km rides. I just bought RE meteor fireball red.
To use Google maps he switched from ios to Android true royal Enfield fan😂😂😂🤣
😂😂
Haha. I was anyways going to switch to Android. Got bored of ios 🤣🤣🤣
😀
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
I also own the same variant. For me there are something that could be better like the hinge of petrol tank, front mud gaurd could be of metal. I also changed my meter console bcoz the glass broken by its own, i also dont like the poor paint job, it got scratches very easy. The headlight could be more powerful.
It could have increased the weight of the bike by 2 kgs more.
@@suryateja2k11 no problem, when u ride bullet u should be ready for 200 kg, but it adds more quality to bullet as it names.
Do you have Matt colour too ?
Wow this video couldn't come at a better time.. this can't be a coincidence.. I'm so excited that it's 4 am and I'm browsing Meteor videos.
1. I have a Honda Shine as well.
2. I am planning to book Meteor 350 today (19th Feb).. through the app..
3. I am opting it for comfort. I've taken so many test rides of different bikes, but the Meteor spoke to me.
Now all I hope is I have a better experience going ahead with Royal Enfield.
Thank you for the video!
Bhai waiting period bahut long h approx 6 months depends what variant you have booked
Same bike same Color love the experience but only problem is maintaining the matte black colour, once there is a scratch or smudge no way to remove it
I am facing a very big issue like when i am at any gear it feels that something is pulling the bike back...i mean when the bike is at 3rd gear it's maximum speed is about 45-50km/h
Please suggest something!!!🙏
can you tell what was the problem in gear ?
royal Enfield customer and going to service centre best love story❤️😂.. Go for highness 350 and chill, cz u've to go to service centre only for service❤️
My dad's dream bike
Waiting for super meteor 650
I feel highness is a better choice, what say guys
True
Does installing a third party leg guard tampers with the warranty?
No
Make ownership review on Duke 390 bs6
please compare meteor vs yezdi roadster
Some meteor bikes have bybre but this bike didn't have that why?
Is it good for short riders like 5.1 ?
Did you experience Tappet issue?
The problem with any review of re is people only talk about upsides ... its only when you purchase it, you get to know about the issues : from proud owner of re meteor fireball matt green
Why only higher engine cc bikes come with these kind of styling, ergonomics, accessories etc? Why not bike companies make 125 or 150cc bikes like this? The only attempt seems to be Yamaha Enticer
It's impossible to satisfy people of every segment
Howvmqny kilometres did ur friend finish
I'm confused to go with the meteor or Yezdi Roadster...
IMO , Yezdi roadster needs gear changes very frequently in city rides. It is suitable for highway rides. Though Meteor engine has less power than roadster, the ride felt better , hence booked Meteor.
Roadster is very noisy...and not comfortable for long ride
Back suspension comfort please explain
engineers do everything except engineering 😅😄
Is meteor is better next gen classic
Hi,
I have recently purchased my Meteor 350 Fireball yellow, no first service completed... I am hearing an Tik Tik sound from engine after starting.
Does anyone face this issue in meteor?
I heard same sound today on new Hunter
@@Darkrai-fq6vm Please inform the technician in service centre to adjust the tappet during the first service...
The motorcycle although looks good feels a bit like two cars hit it from the front and rear at the same time then shipped them to the dealers
1. Does it makes comfortable for taller riders like 6 feet and above?
2. How is the suspension, is it softer or harder?
3. Is there any false neutral?
4. Headlight visibility?
5. Build quality?
2 thing that I can tell u is the Build quality of every Royal Enfield is best 🔥 and its comfortable for taller riders 😎 like me
I don't think a 6 feet rider should have any sort of problem with meteor 350 because of its long wheel base and also you can hug the tank properly with your legs and won't feel any discomfort. But I would definitely suggest you to take a test ride before purchasing this bike to get to conclusions
Suspension is hard but you can go for nitrox suspension 2nd thing stock bulbs in Headlights aren't great change it to philips extreme vision rest everything ok
Good luck
1. Comfortable for all heights
2. For suspension there is adjustment knob on the suspension itself.
3. No false neutral
4. Headlight visibility is very good
5. Build quality is good though you might see some easy scratches on the fuel tank
can we change the foot pegs position
No., Just you can change foot pegs to larger size. No re position
Bhai mene bhi book kardi he 29 ko delivery he ☺️☺️
Bhai ne JVLR travel kia hai. Dedo ek award.
Lol
Getting RE matte is the biggest mistake for any owner.
Why? I bought stellar black last month. Any issues you ve encountered?
Any issues
@@maxheimer9605 You get 6 months of matte and rest of the life with Glossy..
@@SubhosVlogs That means you get best of both worlds. 🥴🤪
@@adrenalinejunkie9428 correct 😂😂😂
I own a meteor 350. I bought a stellar variant. It comes with chrome finish on the handlebar, mirrors and exhaust. The bike has good ergonomics. The concept is cool. On flat roads it feels like a magical chair taking you through the space. But the problem starts when indian road conditions are applied. Mirrors shake too much on concrete roads. There are options of touring mirrors which come at the same cost as chrome mirrors. Yet RE didnt put those on factory setup. Many options such as touring seats come at similar cost as stock seats and yet RE offers it as an option and we have to pay for it while the stock seat rots at home. Suspension is way too stiff and no matter how i adjust it, it stays hard as rock. Again here, nitrous shocks come at a very close price compared to those that are offered. But they are sold with a fake reason of highway stability.
After the 1st service console glass cracked a little. One service centre agreed to replace and another denied to cover under warranty. After 4 months passed I'm being told since one month that part is unavailable.
Engine tappets have to be adjusted every 5k otherwise the engine knocks like a spoon, many people reported similar issues and re fail to offer a solution. Some guy even complained of not putting engine oil after service which led to ceased block which re refused to cover under warranty. Oil that's being offered is semi synthetic and the company schedule claims its service life of 10k kilometers. But when I checked by myself during service of 5k kilometers, oil had turned total watery black, there was no viscosity to it. It was finished. Even after that, service people took my sign for oil replacement as if i was asking for any illegal stuff. The service crew is novice and many places I found out that teenage boys are servicing our bikes. And for God's sake never visit re authorised services for minor works. Otherwise they'll eat your free service for minor chain adjustment and chain cleaning. I have been cheated with that. It is stupid business and at the end of the day you regret an elephant at 80kmph on highways while ktm adventures take you over with ease..
Dude its 350ccand can only go 112kph. An elephant.
Hi, so how comfortable it is for rider with 5'5 height ?
It is more comfortable for all heights
I don't understand why we go for supernova only for chome finish, but engine is same for fireball. So company is making fool only on chrome...so better is fireball..no extra pay for the accessories
Company isnt making any 'fool'. It clearly states everywhere that the only differences between the three models are all cosmetic changes. If you're only after the power, then the fireball is the way to go
How s break
You have already decide to purchase RE from before I guess
people who rode honda cb350 series they never buy boomer meteor
Dinesh Karthik lite version
As Meteor 350 owner I have not heard a single complaint from any fellow owner or other riders at all. Maybe the backseat is too small for a healthier person? (I don't ride with pillion anyway).
Only international customers complain about it being underpowered which is justified for their road quality and traffic.
Seating is not good ... handling also for long rides
Waiting for classic 350 reborn user review.....
I also
saying that i will go for one model even if its costly will make companies unnecessarily increase the price some times even 100%. that's what is happening recently. please dont make such comments while making reviews. Just leave it for the public.
Zero vibration ????
Yaa
Zero vibration till 70. After that you'll feel a little. But that's the character of the engine. If you want zero vibrations you can opt for Honda CB 350.
Engineer to journalist lolz
😃
First view ❤️
🥇 First
Meteor only has 1 problem. It's not ideal to ride at 120 - 140 kmhr
Iss khusi me Goo kha le
How can you go at a speed when the company itself claims that you can't go over 120 kmph? Btw 120 is something too risky in India. I would suggest you to cruise at 90 kmph which is much safer and also gives better mileage
140?
Are you high?
@@r3sistance792 Bro sometimes when road is empty we travel like that. Otherwise, we always maintain a decent speed from 100 - 120. By the way, you will get challans if you travel like that in the city.
@@suryateja2k11 No, I just compared it with a KTM. For KTM, 120 is nothing. Anyways, I won't be travelling at such a pace.
1.Missing one point.please tell me the cost on road price?
2. Is it suitable for height 5.3 person?
Please reply Bhai
I am 5'5". Yes it is suitable for 5'3". Take a test ride, see how comfortable for you. You can opt for low seat option and/or buy riding shoes , most of them have 1.5 inch soul.
However
Price too high

What issues are you facing?
Entire ownership review was myth...ask me for truth of meteor
Tell me bro wanting to buy meteor or highness
No it isn't a Myth. I myself own a meteor and I've not faced a single problem till now.
What's the myth
Such a biased review. I own a meteor and nobody in their sane mind will say one good thing about the tripper. It's a wasteage of money.
