I bought one and it's superb, living in rural France riding the lanes or the main roads is just fun. 😅

What i like the most about RE is the Paint selection for their entire lineup. They never miss.

I took a Super Meteor for a short test drive at a multi-brand test event a couple of weeks ago. It was easily the biggest surprise of the day! I loved it!

Royal Enfield has come along way from the brim of extinction. So super happy and proud to see the growth of this heritage brand and their sprit of keeping motorcycling pure. Can't wait to see what more is coming out of the RE stable. The Super Meteor 650 is truly remarkable and such a great all-round bike! And Bob like always enjoy your videos and delivery. 😎🤙

I own this bike. Got mine on 23rd March and I love it. Yes its heavy and not really fast but its got a lot of charm and character and its comfortable. RE is doing amazingly

Commenting on looks, I don't think it's superficial at all when talking about bikes. We're not buying a refrigerator. Bikes are the very definition of consumer discretionary spending, and if you don't like the look of a bike, then you really shouldn't get it, no matter what your friends or reviewers say. It would be like dating a girl that is perfect for you on paper but simply doesn't excite you.

I rode the Meteor 350 and fell in love with it, so I can't imagine how nice it'd feel to ride the super meteor

I’m 67 years old. Love my 2019 interceptor and couldn’t have bought a more appealing bike with more than enough power for my style of riding. I’m in northern Ontario Canada and there aren’t many Royal Enfield bikes here, the Interceptor really gets noticed. I’ll be first in line when the Super Meteor gets here. I don’t particularly like to modify things but it will most certainly get “ bobbed”. Great video motobob I find myself taking a breath for you!

Excellent video. As an Enfield 650 owner (and fan), this new flagship bike seems to live up to all the customer feedback I’ve heard. 👍🏻

Love the look of these bikes, modern and classic, great review as always xx

It’s amazing that these recent models by RE looks amazing and fantastically designed. Continental GT, Interceptor, Hunter and now this… damn

Really nice job by RE. As long as youre not expecting gobs of low down torque like a lot cruisers have, this will fit the bill for lots of motorcyclists. It’s not going to wow you with off the line speed and you’ll be changing gears a lot on roads with elevation changes.

Accurate review which i ever seen before great job motobob👌🏻😎 love from India 🇮🇳

Had a demo for 24hrs, took it back to the dealer this afternoon, loved it! Great cruise on a sunny day!

It's an amazing stride for RE, one thing I wish to have more work done is the rear suspension.... I love the rest of my little beast

Great review and I can confirm as owner since March 1st, this is a great package. I also thought peg position would be a problem, it's not though. Thanks

Love the look of it. Great review, thanks!

You are a master sales person. You had a video for a CB1000R. I bought one. Love it. This video. I have been looking at a continental GT. Now this is beautiful. I forgot how nice a cruiser can be. You killing me man!

Definitely like it in that green too, nice preview.

I would love to see a comparison video between the Super Meteor and the Guzzi V9 and more Guzzi reviews in general.

Was dying to c d deep green colour super meteor 650…u showed it nicely n in great detail…👍🏻

Affordable, very good looking bike! Love to have it. The bike is getting great reviews from many RU-vidrs.

They hit our local dealer a week or 2 ago. Look real nice

With Harley ditching the classic Sportster 883 and 1200. This Royal Enfield is the only cruiser with a real retro air cooled engine. looks and sounds Beautiful 😊

I totally agree with you, but i was expecting a V-Twin which could give it good potent numbers in terms of engine output and also that they have never tried to do with a V-Twin for a long time

Great looking bike,personally the best of the Honda and Kawasaki,can’t believe your getting so much bike for the money,don’t know how Royal Enfield do it. Great video.👍🏻

I love my meteor, it's only the 350 but we've already done many miles together, it's comfortable and fast enough for me and 100 mpg if ridden around 60 mph ( I run a 16 tooth front sprocket ) . The only thing I must say is the tripper is rubbish, just use your phone in a cradle with a cover if wet . Enfield are really getting good , and prices are so fair in a world full of greedy bike sales 🤔

The one we've all been waiting for! RE is actually trying to make the bikes people want and can afford. Thank you Royal Enfield!

This is my dream bike. I'll buy it as soon as I finish my college and get a job. I'm a fan of it's sound! Sounds bloody beautiful 🥺🥺❤❤

can't wait for the comparison video between super meteor and honda rebel 🔥

hola buen video! cual eligirias usted..? la honda cl 500 o la royal enfield supermeteor 650? gracias

Looks very good macho and painting is top quality.nicely indeed

It’s the best built (apart from the ugly foot peg and foot control brackets) but unless you like cruisers there are far too many dynamic compromises compared to the other RE twins

RE interceptor 650 owner here, I so want this available in the US! Will swap in a heartbeat, Int 650 great bike but the SM 650 is such a beauty

I tested RE 650 GT and interceptor. That engine is great ! Supermeteor is not my cup of tea, but I am really looking forward for Classic 650 ! I owned RE 500 EFI, it was factory for emotion, but kind of slow to streets in this days...That Classic with this 650 will be great ! I am sure !

I took one for a test ride today and it’s really nice well built but not for me. The rear suspension is really hard and you get bucked off the seat on speed humps unless you take it painfully slow and I didn’t like the way it rode when slow riding. It’s is a great ride tho it didn’t have the power I was expecting my old Interceptor was faster. Not sore if it’s geared differently. The breaks are great tho

Hello mate. Thanks for your amazing video. I actually bought this bike and its really amazing. ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

Would love to try one on a 400 mile trip. Just need a manual throttle lock I guess .

Word is it's coming to Canada for 2024. And here I am checking it out. What a beautiful machine from a time LONG forgotten by bigger (and now over priced) brands.

thanking you for your love towards our brand

Looks pretty nice! If you were to have £6-7K to spend on a beginner-ish cruiser, and had your sights set on both this and the Honda Rebel 500, what would you feel that you'd get for the extra £500 spent on the Meteor 650, in a day-to-day, real world experience context? (I know it's a case of a 650 vs a 500, but particularly with Cruisers, that's not so much of a simple comparison, with weight and torque to look at, etc.).

I agree it’s the best RE yet

Great video, can you please add metric/imperial conversations on number figures? Excited to see the Shotgun for sure, 👍

Love the wide handlebar

Great bike indeed, love Royal Enfield! I do wish however that the wheel base was slightly longer. It looks a bit short for me length of 183cm.

Looks gorgeous

i would really like to see a classic version of this bike with spoke rims and more chrome or the same rims just with chrome touches

Essentially, forward controls on the Enfield would be about where mid-controls are located on a Harley.

I wish these type videos, also mentioned USA Specs & Price's. I always have to Google them.

I’m not riding cruisers anymore because the sheer size of them and my older back don’t get along. It’s a solid bike for sure I’m not sold but worth a look. Not a lot of power but I’m not looking for gobs of power anymore.

Can’t get one of those Super Meteor’s in Canada. The only one I would buy. Hopefully they bring it here soon.

Amazing indian brand ❤❤

What did you think of the handling on this bike? I test rode it 3 days ago and genuinely was surprised by it. I don’t know wether it’s the suspension or the added weight but I felt I handled better than the interceptor.

I'm not really into cruisers but this is a great looking bike.

Might be a little heavier but at least it’s not made of plastic

To be very frank the sound in not up to the mark orelse there is absolutely no doubt excellent job 👏

Nice bikes - everybody seems to love them

Looking forward to the release of the RE Shotgun. Though this Super Meteor is very nice, the Shotgun will be my choice to purchase. Ride Safe ✌️

The best thing one can do with the money saved over the other mid capacity cruisers is to invest it in a big bore kit and Avon Cobra Chrome tyres!

I really like it. Just a few more HP would be nice.

Question, what shoes are you wearing in the review? I've been looking for a good MTB shoe and those look like they would fit the bill. Great review!

I love retros and especially cruiser styles. The super meteor is brilliant in my eyes , but I do think that maybe Royal Enfield could do with a bigger engine option as well as the 650 500 and 350 I know this would increase the price somewhat but they would probably still be cheaper than their main competitors in Triumph, Harley D and Indian I know there are after market kits to take them up to 800ish or more but maybe they could do an actual bigger RE engine maybe just under the 1200s of the others or maybe a bit bigger lol. I also think I'd like to see a Continental "CT" ( City tourer) with a jazzed up version of the 350 engine this could be cool for around town

Best looking cruiser on the market today👍

Royal Enfield nails it again. I have a Interceptor and love the bike... damn it - now I want this one also.

Try the new RE Interceptor 650 Blackout😉, they have greatly improved the quality of the components

Love from India 🤗

This bike's looks and price will be helpful in marketing to new young riders

Not a fan of the meteor. But with the windshield removed this looks pretty amazing. And that green paint job.

Anyone know when north America is getting them no one seems to know and I'm just about to go bike shopping bid like it to get here before I can't wait anymore 😔

I was anticipating upgrading from my Meteor 350, but a friend bought one and after one month is trying to sell it because he finds the ergonomics poor for our twisty roads and the feet forward seating position gives him a sore back on long runs.

Is there a way to get this bike with spoked wheels?

I saw a tank going through the city once.

I think appearance was the perfect place to start. That’s a beautiful bike and the reason we stop to ask what’s under the hood; how does she ride; what’s the price; will she hold up? Those questions and answers seal the deal. But looks start the conversation.

Regarding the engine, does it get too hot to the point of bothering the pilot? Thanks

Anyone know the UK address lead time for an RE SM Astra, in black (given a reported 2-4mths across India)?

Anyone know the length of the super meteors shocks? Centre to centre

Just wow my dream bike❤

1 cylinder and 250cc short of falling in love💕..a 900cc Air cooled triple would be awesome for bigger/taller riders😊

Exc review- A nice classic look bike that has me wanting one over the honda cb350

I have bought a Super Meteor 650 Celestial Blue. This bike is not at all meant for riding in the city. It has a very high turning radius, heats a lot ( very much more than my expectations) and the average is only 10 km/litre. The executives at Royal Enfield are claiming for average to be 22km/litre which totally false. They have given a charging USB Port inside the side panel case😂. What is the use of that ? What sense does it make ? In RE 350 it is below your side handle bar which is more appropriate. If you want to take this bike for an outstation ride than it is one of the best. Extremely stable bike with superb pick up. Look wise it s a beast . This is a very non biased and honest review. I had spoken to their executives at the Service station. Even they agreed to my feedback.

In brecon mid wales this morning there was a disguised royal enfield 450 himalayan hybrid, i asked the fella what uit was he was quite cagey said it waas an indian bike so i asked if it was the new water cooled 450 himalayan he admitted it was duct tape over badges twin exhaust silencers one side, quite low seat and cast wheels

Can’t wait until they make a 1200cc version

Interceptor in this colour,not a cruiser style fan unless its a Rocket 3🤑

I run a 411 Scram. Few tweeks and its one of the best bikes I've owned.

I used to own a Harley Iron 883 but traded it for a 400cc scooter. After seeing this RE, i thought about buying back an easy rider type of a bike. How is this bike compared to the Iron 883 ( if anyone knows )?

Kinda looks like that Triumph cruiser that came out around 2002. I think it was called a Thunderbird? I can't recall... But it definitely reminds me of a Triumph bike from my days of working a Triumph/Ducati dealership. Still, a decent looking bike though 👍🏾

The one thing about my RE I don't like is long distances. Maybe this would fix it

I could see buying this as a second bike to my BMW. I would want different unbranded side panels though

A really sweet looking bike, especially for the price. I'm just wondering, what is its top speed, ball park figure like? Can it overtake easily enough on a big highway? And with it being a bit taller than others in its class, does it have a bit more lean angle around corners?

Can you buy foot boards for them.

The best bike is whichever 650 you like best. Personally the Interceptor 650 is the best. I’m not a cruiser boy yet.

Nice but they should of upped the engine size to the 750 - 900 cc range.

Think the astral black is the best color especially with a ceramic exhaust

It does look nice but perhaps a bit too low down on the seat still personally.

Price already increased enormously! It is €9.900 in Austria! I envy everyone in a country where you pay the equivalent of GBP 6,700

I'm wondering comfort long trip wise.. Best comfort between a Kawasaki z900rs and the super meteor ?

In the name of Gods, when is this coming out to the US market? I'm over here waiting and I'm getting to the point that I think. I'm just gonna upgrade to a triumph speedmaster.

The problem for me is that the discontinued 350 and 500 Classic bikes made sense as a true retro, but I don’t see anything interesting in their modern bikes. However, I don’t live in the UK!. Here in my part of Europe we see RE represented in the motorcycle shows, but we don’t see them on the road.

Hi started watching your video on triumph s400. It was tempting to go for it as it retails less than 3L here in India. Ended up getting that meteor 350 and I’m loving it. Glad I chose this because triumph is a bland bike I hear. Meteor has the character.
