    Excellently pointed out about the engine braking in prev gen 350.. I always felt the engine braking strange in the classic 350.. Sometime it feels like no engine braking at all!!. Then if I downshift more..enormous amount of braking kicks in which makes the wheels lock.
    Glad to hear the revs are sorted out and can't wait to test it. Excellent review btw

    Im going to be seriously looking to buy one when they arrive here in the U.K..
    First job for me would be silencer change ,tour saddle upgrade .
    And alter the Tripper mount to move it up to be centrally level with the Speedo.
    Love the simple 2 valve ohc power plant which if built as well as the interceptors plant will be ultra reliable.
    A one tooth more up grade to the engine sprocket for solo only riding imho would give a more relaxed criusing speed.

    RE have just dropped the 500’s in the UK and we haven’t had the 350’s for over ten years the meteor is rumoured to be released over here before the end of the year. The 650’s are the biggest selling bike over 125cc in the UK and have brought lots of new customers to the brand as they are priced well below their competitors at £5500 to £6200 depending on the paint option you choose. The meteor if priced right about £3500 to £4000 should attract more customers to the brand. The only problem I can see with this bike is the performance 120kph translates as about 75mph which means that motorways are going to be best avoided and out of town it could be a bit slow compared with other traffic.

I though have been very impressed with the new bikes that Royal Enfield are making they are a massive step up from the old models in both performance and quality. The old singles had a reputation for being a more “hands on” bike that needed constant maintaining to keep working the 650’s have killed that dead as apart from adjusting the chain and air it the tyres you can leave the spanner’s alone . I can only hope the meteor continues this.

  • @n4zou

    I wish RE would built a dedicated sidecar bike. Here in the USA only Ural is selling sidecar bikes but they are very expensive and Dealer's can't keep them in stock so you end up waiting months for your bike to arrive. Don't expect to find a used cheap one as used bikes cost just a little less than new so it's better to wait for a new bike. RE could assemble sidecar bikes using standard frames and only change the triple tree to optimize rake and trail for tugging the sidecar. That and welding brackets on the frame for attaching the sidecar. You don't really need to drive the sidecar wheel or have reverse on street sidecar motorcycles but an electric reverse motor on the sidecar could be an optional accessory.

    @TheLazyWandererMys 3 года назад +5

    Good one Rohit. That was a very honest, not-hyped up review. Looking forward to ride one. Expectations are always different with the RE fanbase, though everyone demands refinement, top speed and all that, the very fact that there are so many buyers for the UCE350 engine despite the well known fact of it not being the most comfortable/reliable bike in its segment of price bracket means there is a large chunk of people to whom the bike still appeals. Being a RE owner myself, I know the pain of parts reliability and the constant oil leak and what not but would i trade my bike for something better? buy another one? may be, trade this one in? definitely not! Among all the frustratiuon and chaos it brings at times, there is this connection that cannot be put in words. Its not 'macho-ism' as ppl often mistake it to be. Its something more... much much more. Its a bond very few bikes with so many short comings can create. That is the USP of RE more than anything else. And with Meteor I think they have retained or tried to evolve that feeling without straying too far from. Question is will Honda be able to attract this kind of crowd away from RE, Guess only time with tell.
    Two things, thanks for answering the questions and about the 650 Twin Cruiser, who knows? well from that smile, I certainly feel that you do. Haha. Btw Still waiting for CB350 review and a comparo

    To make a bike complete cruiser it would be interesting to make design to keep leg in complete relaxing or more forward stretching position...and there should be at least enough space to sit two average people. Because cruiser ask you to take for a longer ride....and if bikes length is little increased that will help to have enough seating space...This bike looks stunning ...I like its power ...(my personal opinion only)
