The Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 is a retro-styled cruiser which extends the 650 Twins family. Once launched, the Super Meteor 650 will be Royal Enfield's flagship model.
Design & Features
The Super Meteor 650 joins the 650 Twins family and introduces a retro-styled cruiser to the line-up. It looks well-built with a hunkered down stance, with a classic teardrop-shaped fuel tank and chunky fenders with a wide and tall slightly swept-back handlebar.
Super Meteor 650 features LED headlight and tail-light. The headlight nacelle and stays are finished in brushed aluminium.
The Super Meteor 650 gets a LED headlight with the nacelle mounted on stays with brushed aluminium finish, underscoring the premium build quality and finish of what will be likely the brand’s flagship motorcycle once it goes on sale.
The Royal Enfield logo on the fuel tank is newly designed, and fuel tank capacity is 15.7 litres.
The Royal Enfield logo on the fuel tank employs the existing font, but the badging has been re-designed to give it fresh appeal.
The switch cubes on the Super Meteor 650 have a brushed aluminium finish, and the rotary switches have a similar design as the Meteor 350.
The rotary switches for the high beam, low beam and pass switch, as well as the engine kill switch are similar to the Meteor 350’s, but the switch cubes also employ a brushed aluminium finish, a first for any Royal Enfield motorcycle.
Accessories include soft leatherette panniers, a windshield, engine crash guards and more.
Several accessories, including leatherette panniers, a tall windshield, engine crash guards, bigger rear-view mirrors and a pillion back-rest will be offered, as part of the Grand Tourer package.
The Super Meteor 650 will be offered in a choice of seven colours.
The Super Meteor 650 will be offered in a total of seven colours, Astral Black, Astral Blue, Astral Green, Interstellar Grey and Interstellar Green. The Grand Tourer variant will be offered in two colour options, Celestial Red and Celestial Blue.
Part-analogue, part-digital, single-pod instrument console with a Tripper navigation pod will be offered on the Super Meteor 650.
The Super Meteor 650 gets a round off-set instrument pod along with the smaller Tripper navigation pod. Expect the instrument console to be well-featured with a long list of information, including distance to empty, odometer, clock, apart from the usual tripmeter and speedo readings.
