CRUISIN' TWIN

Royal Enfield unveils the Super Meteor 650

- SAYANTAN DE

Royal Enfield surprised everyone by taking the wraps off the Super Meteor 650 at Rider Mania 2022 after the global unveiling at the EICMA 2022. This is the first time we were able to get up close with the new cruiser, R powered by the 650cc parallel-twin engine from the Interceptor and the Continental GT 650.

However, Royal Enfield did mention that they have made extensive changes to the gearing and the engine mapping to give the Super Meteor a more laid-back feel that befits a cruiser. With 47PS and 52Nm on tap from the 650cc parallel-twin motor, there shouldn't be any lack of grunt, but it probably won't win any traffic light Grand Prix either.
