Background
With its name, the Meteor 350 takes on the legacy of a Royal Enfield icon from the 1950s. Launched in late 1952, the Meteor was a highly acclaimed touring motorcycle that earned its reputation over many years. The new Royal Enfield Meteor 350 easy cruiser carries over the brand's typical characteristics into the present day with many innovations, thus living up to its predecessor's outstanding reputation in the best possible way.Time Travel
Growing up in the 1980s meant that the enduring image of a motorcycle for me was a cruiser of some sort. It's not that I was a "cruiser guy," it's just that when you see a lot of something, it becomes the main point of reference, and in this case, a desire! Having only had bicycles until my late teens, I was intrigued by the idea of a typical American style cruiser - and the first, cruiser I actually saw in the flesh and instantly fell in love with was a Royal Enfield city bike.The new engine
At the heart of the Meteor is a 349cc, air/oil-cooled SOHC engine with a characteristically long stroke that delivers smooth power delivery and plenty of low-end torque. The electronic fuel injection system provides reassuring power delivery throughout the rev range, ensuring unparalleled performance. Continuing the tradition of the legendary single-cylinder, the exhaust of the new engine emits the characteristic sound of a Royal Enfield.Agile and light handling
With its new frame, comfortable riding position, ABS braking system, high-quality suspension elements and elastic power delivery, the Meteor 350 will enrich the cruiser world. The agile and light handling is the result of numerous hours of testing and development, resulting in a new frame that is more stable and torsionally rigid without compromising ride comfort.Turn by Turn Navigation
The Meteor 350 features a Turn by Turn (TBT) navigation system, used here for the first time on a Royal Enfield. This requires the Royal Enfield app, which is based on Google Maps and establishes a connection between a smartphone and the motorcycle navigator via Bluetooth. Turn by Turn Navigation is a sophisticated navigation solution that includes features designed specifically for motorcyclists and provides directional information via an intuitive display system. Combined with the diverse capabilities of the Royal Enfield App and a USB charging port, the Meteor 350 truly heralds a new era in Royal Enfield's storied history.
