I've been waiting for so long for the 250cc Bronzewing.

Looks like you had a great trip, Cliff! Like you said, most people in cars have somewhere to be while we just wanna cruise on our motorbikes. 😂

Ohio Northern. Loved this video… 😊

Love the bike!

Did you noticed any dimension chages in pillion stock seat vs touring pillion seat ? ( Does it look broad than stock seat)

Thanks for the video and the PDF! Great work! Drive safe :)

Thanks ! I just finished replacing the sprinkler on my Rally 300 and it is much better!I used your video suggestions ! Thanks

Great video, straight to the point and the exact situation I am in

That’s a great little road to ride.

Nice view!

Looks fun! We need to ride sometime.

Just got a meteor 350 and I absolutely love it! I have a Harley lowrider s as well, but there’s something special about the meteor.

Enjoyed your video. I commented on another video of yours a while back. I also have a 2021 Meteor with just under 12,000 miles on it. I was born in Alliance Oh, but we moved back to my parents' home state of Iowa when I was like 2. Live in Texas now and miss seeing those corn fields. lol. My son and I was planning a trip from here to Iowa this month (October) but a couple of weeks ago a lady rear ended him on his Indian Scout 60 while he was sitting at a stop sign. So, his bike is in the shop getting repaired so we cancelled the trip which would have been about a 2000-mile round trip when it was all said and done. The longest overnight trip for me was from here in North Texas to central Texas to visit an old friend of mine around 200 miles one way. Like you I get a little nervous on some of those faster busier highways. I notice you don't have the Tripper navigation system on your Meteor. I had heard they don't have those on some of the newer bikes. What are you getting for gas mileage? I was getting anywhere from mid 70's to mid 80's mpg. I recently put on one of those DNA filters and I am now getting around 90 mpg. Also like the sound of it. You might want to check into that. Keep up the good work.

Does it reduce the seat height?

I bought the same blue R E in June this year and i love everything about it , everything youve said is exactly how i feel about mine . Stay safe and enjoy 😉 🙏 From England 🇬🇧

Thank you! Was able to get a 12v adapter installed on my 2013 CRF250L in short order thanks to your video.

I enjoyed your video. I grew up in Western PA, just across the state line from Youngstown Ohio. I'm not real familiar with the area that you were in. But, you're right about all Ohio villages are sort of set up the same way. I hope you can take a ride when the leaves are changing more. I really miss that about living up that way. Thanks!

What a great tour through Small Town USA! I recommend Dietsch Brothers ice cream and dessert shop next time you are that way! Nice old fashioned ice cream and candy shop. The Meteor ☄️ is sounding great! Love the advice at the end; set small goals towards larger ones. I tend to have large goals and end up with analysis paralysis when trying to accomplish my large goals. We need to meetup for a ride soon, now that you know I do in fact ride on pavement 😂 P.s. I like the boot cam!

I would ride to that airport just to eat one of those cheeseburgers 🍔 😂😂 I'm like you, I can't stand tailgaters, especially on a motorcycle. I do the same thing, wave them on. That is one good-looking bike! A lot of time spent editing, and it paid off. Well done!

Yeah, the tailgating is exasperating.

The sound of your RE thumper is music to my ears.

Well done you for keeping on going. That was an interesting look at smaller towns in the USA. In particular a part that we'd not normally see viewing here in the UK. That's the beauty of the internet and YT. Thanx for taking us along.🤟

Ahh, and that’s the downside to travel on the 350; while 55mph(ish) is MY happy place and 55mph is about the bike’s happy place, it is NEVER enough for any four-wheeled vehicle. Even on two lane state highways with lower limits it just adds stress to the trip. 60 to 65 is where I need to be just to keep things somewhat in balance behind me and that’s just not comfortable for me on my 350 with no windscreen, etc. I also spend a lot of time and attention to waving people around me when able and then pulling off at other times to let the line go by. I find that trip time can easily double from what the map suggests. Glad you hung in there! I also found that the day of the week can make a big difference in traffic demands. Some days are just easier than others. Stay safe! Happy Trails…!

should have got thee silverwing i have a 84 standard love it its my 4th motorcycle

I own a Honda GL500 Silverwing for sale if anybody is interested. I live in Cleveland

What a fun ride!

wanting to get one for my dual sport but was oblivious to tongue weight requirements when I bought my 2016 2WD thinking I only want to take my moto that weighs 340lb wet surely the 3,500lb towing capacity is enough. thanks for the video. looks great!

Nice little ride out. Got to make the most of it now with autumn and winter almost upon us.

Those are the kind of roads I like. Were you in the Xenia/Springfield area?

Nice review on the fabulous Meteor 350! I've a 2021 Fireball Yellow with nearly 8000 miles and agree with your sentiments 100%. Have been to the old pickle factory and drooled over the vintage bikes especially the Suzuki 2-strokes. Your Meteor will continue to improve with more miles ridden. Mine took 3000 miles to run-in completely. Been riding since 1973. My Meteor is the most comfortable stock bike ever owned.

Any issues with the quad lock? Any damage to the phone from vibration?

Thanks for sharing with those of us who were not able to attend. Great video!

Nice nails 👍🏻

Nice seeing ya on the dirt again!

I'm amazed! 1: I didn't know turkeys could fly, I just thought they were a similar bird but not related to chickens hence flightless. 2: Your car was the only one there when you got back to it. 3: There was no litter and crap all over the place in the car park and no overflowing bins. AWSOME!

always to have different tools for different tasks!

I have had my Meteor 350 for 3 years this month (August). 2021 Stellar red Meteor 350. I just went over 11,000 trouble free miles. I will be 68 this November and have ridden motorcycles most of my life. I've owned dirt bikes and a Triumph 750 but other than hill climbing and riding out in the sticks on those dirt bikes none of them gave me the enjoyment this Meteor does. The only thing I didn't care for when I first got the bike was the poor (dim) head light. Maybe the new ones have LED lights but this one doesn't. I put an engine guard on it and hooked up a couple LED lights and attached them to the engine guard and that really helped. Also installed a windshield, saddle bags, touring foot pegs, and just got my touring seat today. My son and I are planning a road trip from here in North Texas to Iowa this fall. About 800 miles one way. He rides an Indian Scout 60. I love the Tripper navigation on it. It will let you put in your destination and avoid highways and toll roads. Granted It won't break any speed records but at my age it goes plenty fast. I'm at the age that I just like to get out on the back roads and enjoy cruising. I know you will enjoy your Meteor as much as I do. The one common thread I hear people say on RUclips that give their review of the bike is "it puts a smile on your face."

I bought the Sportster with the ape hangers in June.Kinda weird seeing my actual bike on a RUclips vid.I haven't even taken any pics of it,yet I get to see it on the internet now. I think it was Jake that you showed briefly that I dealt with.Great guy.He ran out and stopped me when I was about to leave and handed me 2 $100 bills...Turns out I accidentally overpaid $200.Can't ask for a more honest dude than that

Hé salut, je découvre ta chaîne et nous avons la même passion RE et j'ai également dans mon garage la meteor... pourrais-tu me faire un retour d’infos sur la protection moteur (la peinture noire résiste t’elle bien aux projections, la chaleur du moteur est-elle correctement évacuée....) j’envisage de l’installer ! Merci par avance. ✌️

I purchased a pre-owned 2021 RE Meteor 350, which came with the touring seat for rider and pillion. But find the rider's touring seat to be a bit hard, but it does look good with the stitching, :-). Enjoyed your video. Cheers.

I've got a Meteor 350 recently, and the seat feels too soft; perhaps will buy the touring seat. On the bicycles I prefer the Brooks saddles, and had similar sturdy leather custom seat on my HD Sportster, but the original Enfield seat is more or less ok, at least for an hour or so. Thanks for the review!

Its been almost a year since i picked up my 1982 GL500. I should do a propwr review soon. Its treated me so well

I was wondering how much it costs, and off of the style? Do you like it, how do the ride of it?

I fitted the touring seat on my bike at 500 miles at the time it was less than £100 ($120) in the UK and it for me is a worthwhile upgrade as it is firmer and more comfortable (the stock seat the padding compresses and it felt like I was sitting directly on the base after 50 miles) . I would also recommend the comfort foot pegs they allow you to move your feet a bit to relieve the cramps . I have had over 9000 trouble free miles with my bike in the last two and a half years with the exception of the rear indicator lenses fracturing where the screw goes through. This I have put down to Royal Enfield employing a gorilla to over tighten them at the factory as since I replaced them I have had no problems but l do have a couple of spare lenses (£5 each) just in case. My first service cost me £150 as it is a valve check along with oil and filter and check over but I have seen people paying over £200 and less than £100 as there is no set charge .

If you have interest, I live nearby and purchased a Triumph Scrambler 400x ($7200ish out the door). Can do a comparison if you like

Did you installed any PPF on your bike? Looks so polished so asking 😅 I'm using supernova model thought to buy Touring seat how you compare with stock seat with Touring one?

They are extremely reliable 500 cc,50 h.p. water cooked shaft drive. I had one with 80k and no problems at all. They are a bit heavy but the 90° v twin is well balanced and it does not feel heavy. It handles similarly to a guzzi without the dubious Italian electrics and a dry clutch not noted for longevity.

The engines are bulletproof. The balance with the guzzi type v twin is great. I owned three and they were better than my guzzis

Ive just bought a Meteor exactly the same bike and colour, i downsized from my B M , and i love it , never had a problem with the heal & tow shifter , the note out of the engine is great , mine is the blackedout , air cooled so go anywhere without worrying about coolent , does about 80 to 100 miles per gallon, i love everything about it ❤️ Ive changed my style of clothes as well , open face helmet , and bomber jacket that suits the style of bike , enjoy your R E 😀 Best wishes from England 🇬🇧.

You wait until the engine has been completely run-in (I think terminolgy in the States is 'broken in'. Guess that's from your Country's affinity/history with horses). Whilst it's a pain adhering to the low road speeds in each gear in the early stages, it pays dividends in the long run. I've recently returned to Meteor ownership and bought a well looked after pre-owned Meteor Fireball (yellow tank) with just under 3,000 miles on the odometer. When I get out on the country lanes of Hampshire (UK) my newly acquired 'bike conveys it's happiness. I didn't realise what I was doing when I parted compay with my first (first owner) Meteor (local R/E dealership ceased trading !) As you mention, the duff-duff exhaust note is magic. Any troubles from the day just melt away 😁. As I will have to do most 'servicing' tasks from now on, I'll be forming an even closer relationship with my two-wheeled beauty from now on.
