New Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 is grabbing attention from cruiser lovers all over. It’s not just another big bike. It brings real comfort, classic design, and a smooth engine that feels perfect for long highway rides. If you’re someone who enjoys laid-back riding with a strong road presence, this one’s for you.
This bike sits above the Interceptor and Continental GT in Royal Enfield’s lineup. And it brings in a lot of fresh elements while keeping that familiar old-school charm.
True cruiser design with Royal Enfield DNA
From the first look, you know this is a proper cruiser. The long fuel tank, wide handlebars, chunky tires, and low-slung seat—it all screams classic. But Royal Enfield didn’t just copy old designs. They’ve given it a fresh twist.
The round LED headlamp, alloy wheels, and split-seat setup add a modern vibe. The rear fender is short and clean, and the overall shape is low and long. It has a big-bike feel but still looks elegant. You get three versions: Astral, Interstellar, and Celestial. Each has unique colors and small feature changes.
Comfy seat and relaxed riding posture
This bike is made for comfort. The seat is wide, soft, and low. You don’t have to stretch to reach the handlebar. Your legs rest forward on footpegs. This relaxed position makes it perfect for long-distance touring.
Even the pillion seat is designed with care. In the Celestial variant, you also get a pillion backrest. That makes two-up riding feel secure and stress-free.
The suspension is soft and tuned for smooth roads. At the front, you get 43 mm Showa upside-down forks. At the rear, twin shock absorbers keep the ride stable. Whether you ride solo or with a passenger, it stays balanced.
Smooth engine that’s made for the highway
The Super Meteor 650 uses the same 648cc parallel-twin engine seen in the Interceptor and Continental GT. It’s fuel-injected, air-oil cooled, and feels super refined. It produces around 47 PS of power and 52.3 Nm of torque.
This engine is smooth at low speeds and builds power gently. It’s not aggressive, but it has enough punch for highway overtakes. The 6-speed gearbox works well, and you also get a slipper clutch that helps during quick downshifts.
The power delivery is linear, so new riders won’t feel nervous. But at the same time, experienced riders will enjoy the torque and strong mid-range.
Smart display with useful tech
The Super Meteor 650 comes with a semi-digital instrument cluster. You get an analog speedometer with a digital screen showing gear position, trip info, time, fuel level, and more.
One of the best features is the Tripper navigation system. It’s a small screen powered by Google Maps and connects to your phone via Bluetooth. It shows turn-by-turn directions clearly and helps on long rides.
The switchgear is chunky and feels good to use. Even the LED lighting all around gives it a premium touch.
Braking and handling built for confidence
This bike is heavy but well balanced. It weighs around 240 kg but doesn’t feel too bulky once you start riding. The wide handlebar helps in controlling the bike in slow traffic and tight turns.
Braking duties are handled by disc brakes at both ends. You get a 320 mm front disc and 300 mm rear disc with dual-channel ABS. It’s not too sharp, but gives enough bite to stop the bike safely.
The tires are wide and grip well. The rear tire is fatter than the Interceptor’s, which adds to the cruiser look and helps with stability.
Built to ride far and look good doing it
The Super Meteor 650 is not just for short city rides. It’s built for long weekends, open highways, and scenic roads. The 15.7-litre fuel tank gives decent range, and the upright posture means you won’t feel sore after hours on the saddle.
Royal Enfield has also worked with Harris Performance on the frame. It’s strong, stiff, and offers better control than past cruisers. Even on curves, it stays planted and doesn’t wobble.
Value-packed cruiser experience
With prices starting around ₹3.5 lakh, the Super Meteor gives you that big cruiser feel without the premium brand price. It’s well-built, smooth to ride, and looks stunning from every angle.
This is a bike for riders who want to enjoy the journey, not just reach the destination. It blends power, comfort, and timeless style in a way only Royal Enfield can.
