Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is replacement to the Thunderbird – It is a new gen motorcycle

Meteor 350 will be the company’s first next-gen product to go on sale this year. Launch is on 6th Nov, as Meteor 350’s rival has already arrived in the form of Honda CB350. To meet evolving customer needs and expectations, Meteor 350 has been equipped with a range of updates including new colour options, an entirely new platform, a new engine and tech upgrades.

Royal Enfield’s new 350 cc engine will be more efficient in comparison to the existing unit. It will be paired with a newly developed transmission and clutch, which have been designed to reduce friction. As a result, the new powertrain will allow smooth gear shifts and increase the life of clutch and other moving parts.
