Beautiful review but your mic isn’t clear intermittently

Very Good little popular bike enjoy your new baby from here in 🇬🇧

I had bought the same bike (meteor 350 fireball blue) on the same month(April 12-2024) Cheers and safe riding 🍻

Hi I am in Uk 🇬🇧 I had one from new did 1200 miles on it great comfortable bike great sound economical, but after 1200 you do get fed up with lack of power so I sold it,but I can understand how and why you can’t help liking these bikes..my next bike possibly the Vulcan S or the new moto calibre….which lands in Uk this year 🤔

Hello! New subscriber. I started riding when I was 55. 63 now. The 2nd bike I bought was a 1982 Silverwing. I still have it and I still love it!! I also have a Goldwing that my wife and I usually ride 2-up, but the Silverwing has a special place in my heart.

Welcome to 20 year old news...

A big Hi from me, a pensioner in the UK who rides a Meteor Fireball 350 in the lanes of Hampshire, just for pleasure. I won't bore you with my bike-owning history, but my current Meteor is the second one I've owned. I've only recently acquired it. It's a pre-owned 2021 model with just under 3000 miles on the odometer. . I expect you've read plenty of KZfaq vids on the Meteor 350, but I can make a couple of observations on my returning to the model. Just as I found on my previous Meteor, riding over big bumps on the road-surface would produce quite a violent 'kick in the butt'. I've experimented with rear suspension pre-load as per a few KZfaq vid suggestions. The advice was to to do a counter-intuitive thing and add a couple of click-steps of pre-load. I tried that and found just one click added to pre-load improved the ride quality massively (two clicks was a slight a retrograde effect from just the one). My weight in full riding gear is about 74 Kg. I've also noticed that , with my latest Meteor engine having more than completed it's break-in mileage, the general performance is much 'perkier (relatively speaking) than when riding my first (new) one wth a tight engine. I persoanlly don't favour the heel/toe shifter and will be replacing the original gear shifter with a conversion kit that makes the shifter 'toe' only. I fitted the conversion on my first Meteor and it provided a vastly improved gear-change action. (Kit marketed by Tec Bike Parts in the UK, who do mail-order). They do the kit in a silver finish, and also in black, which is what I'll be getting, but Tec are awaiting new stock of the black kit) Part of the reason for my return to Meteor riding was for the added comfort (in my old age I have started to develop arthritis in my right hip) I am really glad I made the change back. If a person is not the type that craves sports-bike performance, the semi-cruiser ergonomics and low revving, but high torque engine, characteristics of the Meteor 350 are a delight. The Meteor handles the 'twisties' in the country lanes surprisingly well, and the riding experience has a soothing but exhilerating effect on the mood 😀. 👋Safe riding, and keep enjoying being a Meteorite.

If you're feeling down, just remember that the numerical remedy is 2 (wheels) & 1 down, 4 (or 5) UP! Ride safe y'all, greetings from a 🇬🇧 RE 500 Classic owner.

You did not rode it you drove it lol

I was always looking at GS with some prejudice because here in Germany it's mostly ridden by blokes over 50 in Hi Vis jackets. Plus you see dozens of GS's on every bike stop. Then I bought one myself last year. It's an old 1100 from '97 but boy are these things good! I returned last week from a five week and 6000 mile trip on the old girl and she did everything I asked for and more. 47 mpg and no mechanical issues, pretty great for a bike that's 27 years old. And the newer ones have only gotten better each year.

Welcome to the BMW club. There is a reason they have been building the GS for over 40 years. It's an iconic bike which gets better every year. IMO, it's the Swiss army knife of bikes, it does it all, and is a pleasure to ride.

I like Super Meteor 350!

The quality of the video & sound 👌✨

First time seeing you❤ good luck with your content ✨👌

I figured the blue and yellow colorway! I have a 2022 Meteor 350. I love it! The only issue I have had is the battery that came with the bike gave out after less than a year and a half. In looking at some discussion boards, this seems to be a common issue. I bought a Yuasa battery and haven't had any issues since.

Great video Cliff! I have never road a Royal Enfield before, maybe someday I will get a chance to.

When are you gonna buy one?! I want to ride one!!

Miles of smiles , congratulations on your meteor 350 fireball !!!!!!

Hello Cliff, great choice, the bike looks really good. I enjoy my RE Classic 500 it is perfect for touring the Scottish countryside and my commute to work in Edinburgh.

I like cows. I can't believe I just found your videos. Thanks for the effort I like your waysound like me, lols. Liked and subscribed. Jim in Western Australia.

Did the bike carrier work for the crf or was it too heavy?

Was the crf250L to big for the carrier on the pilot?

I own a 2022 meteor 350 and use it for my daily commute to work and have done just under 10,000 miles on it and like it a lot . The bike has been reliable and cheap to run and is fun to ride . I get about 180 to 200 miles before the reserve light comes on and a dealership service is about £250 for a major 6000 mile service. The bits that aren’t that good are the drive chain which I had to get changed at 6000 miles the tyres which are ok in the dry but not that good in the wet and the high beam on the headlight which puts most of the light skyward and none on the road you can see more on dipped. The chain and the tyres I can get better aftermarket items the headlight I am stuck with as the led one in the aurora isn’t a plug and play swap. You can improve the gear change feel by replacing the pivot bolt and bent wire linkage with one off eBay and the comfort foot pegs are worth doing as well. . The rear shocks when the preload is adjusted are ok and improve with miles . Personally I wouldn’t throw money at the bike to get more performance out of it as the Triumph 400 is only £1000 more in the UK and it has over twice the power which you are not going to get out of the 350 engine. I hope you enjoy the bike as I love mine.

Something to buzz about on, Mmm might have been better to go with the hunter

Have you seen any of the 'Ol Man Ronin' vids on his Meteor? He was in Ohio as well and loved that bike as much as his Harleys. You do seem to be revving it quite high for a new engine btw.

I'm considering one of the RE 350s, but can't decide which model. Why did you go with the Meteor over the Classic (the one I'm leaning towards most) or the Hunter?

Love the new bike, buddy!

Love from India ❤

Why you didn’t try Himalayan 450 over meteor?

Very nice video, I’m also looking at the meteor, but as a first bike and funny enough in the same color 😂

great video........luv from india

Congrats on the purchase! I had a black meteor 350. Loved it, but upgraded to a super meteor 650 so that I can more easily do highway. Wish I had kept the meteor 350 for around town.

my dad got me one , and it's one of the best bikes I've ever seen in terms of comfort

Congrats. I have the exact same bike, color and all. I recommend the touring mirrors, they don’t vibrate.

Beautiful

I want one.

super glue works good for holding the nut in the wrench.

Great stuff. Thanks

Where is the covered bridge? Look interesting.

Goedentiijt 😂😂😂

Been there multiple times.

I bought a 2004 sportster from them about 3 years ago. Best purchase on a bike ever! The bike was turn key, needed nothing, it has been dead reliable! I just put 2000 miles on it with some friends riding through 6 states. Zero issues! I was treated very well there and have recommended many people to take the drive to Williams. And no, I will NEVER sell that sportster!

Great video!

Great video. Straight to the point and helpful. Thanks!

Check out Brimms salvage in Kenton! You'll love it

Since it's June as I'm watching this, I'm pretty sure that you didn't buy the Silver Wing, but with an older bike like that, that you're not familiar with, I'd tend to err on the side of caution and not buy it. Just my experience.

Ah those lovely Ohio roads😂. Why do other areas of the United States look like professional pavers? 😂

That looks like a great time. I'm not sure how I could manage it but it would be nice to do. So many memories at Mid Ohio, mostly SCCA events in the early '70s.

I'm working backwards a bit, just watched you getting your new ride after watching your visit to Williams yesterday. Since I live in the same general area I'm planning to pay them a visit in the near future.

That's a good looking bike! After seeing your visit to Williams I'm planning to do a road trip to check them out. I live in Batavia.
