Meteoric Cruise

ROYAL ENFIELD HAVE been upgrading their portfolio of motorcycles and the Super Meteor 650 was one of the most awaited launches. This is the third motorcycle to emerge from Royal Enfield's tried and tested 650-cc platform. The design is more or less similar to that of the Meteor 350 wherein the bike follows the silhouette of a classic cruiser. It is nice to see Royal Enfield tap into the middleweight cruiser segment; it is something many enthusiasts have been waiting for. At first glance, the Super Meteor 650 is a well-built motorcycle that has a premium finish to it.

An LED headlight is a first for the brand

With this new offering, there are components that we see on a Royal Enfield motorcycle for the very first time. These include a full-LED headlamp and a Showa Big Piston Separate Function USD front fork. The instrument cluster is the same as the one we see on the Meteor 350, but the Super Meteor gets an off-set tripper navigation pod as part of the standard equipment.

Premium paint finish and impressive build quality
