Hi from New Zealand 😊 I have the super meteor with 4000kms on the clock,got it New and honestly this is a very good bike,likes the slow stuff but it tells me also lets go and it can Go if you want that blast through the corners sensations,even stock rubber is surprisingly grippy,wind the back shock down a couple of notches and a difference is noticeable.
Such a great bike for yourBucks$$$$ GET ONE 😂

Hi Steve! Thanks for the comments, and glad you enjoy the bike! Great machine.

Adjust the suspension by two clicks going by your size, one click if your a light weight

I spent four months doing Indepth research into this bike as soon as ordering became available I order it. I have a full review on my channel. I love this bike I ordered it site unseen just based on online reviews I could not be happier with my purchase. I plan on doing all the maintenance myself except the valves.

Im getting one. The dealership said they sat in crates too long and developed flat spots in the tires. So they are replacing them with approved tires in the next few weeks

[@roaddirttv]

Excellent! Come back and tell us about it after you’ve had a chance to ride and get used to it.

I would really like to buy the Celestial Red Model. However, none of the Oregon dealers seem to be able to acquire one. Is there a "shortage" of this model? Any help/suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you.

[@roaddirttv]

We’re thinking more of them will begin showing up in dealerships after the new year. Maybe you could put an order in on one?

[@tobeunderstood]

doesnt re use upside down fork on bullet and classic?

[@devonnobles1083]

That's an illusion. Those are conventional forks.

Super HEAVY 650, how is it that R.E. lowers the weight of the new Himalayan and gives it 65 percent more power but they take the 650INT/Continental GT engine and put it into a machine that weighs 60-70 more pounds; most of the 1200cc motorcycles weigh considerably less. If you enjoy "lipstick on a pig" this is the bike you should buy...

[@devonnobles1083]

I think it is lighter than every other cruiser on the market except ones based on naked sport bikes or the meteor 350. What 1200 cruiser is lighter? Certainly not harley indian or triumph.
