Top Speed Royal Enfield Classic 350 

The topspeed is enough, if need go faster then buy a crotch rocket (Sports bike) 😊

Asolutely agree, way enough for cruising!

People travel 1000s of km on this bike travelling the length and breadth of India, including Ladakh, which is the heaven for cruise/off road biking.

The Meteor Aurora looks great on photos.

They look even more great in real life! I saw them in Milan.

Hi Andy, for me the speed is enough too. My Vespa Gts runs also 120 km/h, which is also fast enough to do long distance road trips. The handling of the Classic 350 is very good indeed. The look is outstanding. Ride safe, cheers Marc

You have Vespa GTS 300? You know, before Royal I' ve been riding my Vespa GTS 300ie with pleasure for years. Now both of these marvels are waiting for the spring in my garage.@@Marc.Stones

Yes I have a Vespa Gts 300 you can see it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kYfXMvtFxNE.html

The sound with the stock exhaust is great 👍🏻👍🏻 and the bike is cheap. Have a nice week too Dimitris ✌️

You are right, at top speed the engine sounds quite loud, best cruising speed is between 50-60 miles.

Danke :-)

For moto vlogging there is too much noise on my helmet 🙂

My bike is stock at the moment, but I will change the air box soon, mybe I will also install the FuelX.

I'll be checking in to see how that works. I like the Classic and I, also, like the new Bullet. Just need a little more oomph for this old fat guy.@@Marc.Stones

@jroberthadden: I bought a new '23 RE Meteor 350 in July (and have 2,000+ miles on it now). As Marc and other folks have pointed out, like the Classic the sweet spot for the Meteor 350 is in the 55 - 60 mph range (especially for the Meteor, which doesn't have a windshield). I agree with that sentiment, and if I wanted to ride much faster than that very often, I'd buy another bike. (In fact, I do have another 350, a BMW C 400 GT, that will go about 89 mph on level ground.) Having said all that -- the Meteor 350 is much like the RE Classic, and is a wonderful and fun bike when riding back roads -- I was still curious about the speedometer accuracy. So after the break-in period and its break-in service, I did a special test for accuracy, which I recorded. I can't post a link here, but if you do a RU-vid or even a Google search for "wspollack 2023 Royal Enfield Meteor 350 Speedometer Accuracy Test" you're sure to find it. The bottom line, according to my methodology, is exactly what you described: the speedo reads about 3 mph (5 km/h) high, once the bike gets moving. A lot of speedos over-display by a percentage of the speed, but the Meteor 350 just over-displays by a fixed number. I suspect that the speedo on the Classic works the same way.

I had a look at your video, I think the Classic will be the same, I will test it when the snow has gone :-)

I have several other much larger and faster bikes that I keep licensed and insured. It would be nice, and I'd like to see, a new Bullet 500 that would, easily run 75mph. Out here in the wild west we have many secondary roads that have a 70 mph speed limit posted and our interstates are 80. Having a little backroads bike, like the 350s would be fun but, many times after a day long riding around my area, it is nice to just get back on the interstate and blast home before the sun sets.@@wspollack

I never drove the Honda Forza 125

Absolutely, if you like the look the bike is ideal for beginners.

@@Marc.Stones thanks 👍

No the ECU does the recalibration automatically

@@Marc.Stones thank you. 👍
