Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which one is better between Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and Yezdi Roadster? Tell the pros and cons of both.
  • Selecting between Yezdi Roadster and Royal Enfield Meteor 350 would depend on several factors such as your budget preference, features required, engine options, brand preference, etc. Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is a good option for those looking for a comfortable city slicker and fancy occasional long-distance trips. At standstill, the Meteor actually feels much lighter than you’d imagine, and when you get going it feels unexpectedly responsive. The sharper rake and the way the new motorcycle carries its weight will put even less experienced riders at ease on this RE. Once you adapt to the quickness and lightness of the steering and the stretched-out seating position, you will find yourself slicing through traffic without breaking a sweat. However, the Meteor doesn’t make a bigger and bolder promise of its own by way of plush ride quality, a greater sense of richness or, crucially, better cruising ability. On the other hand, Yezdi Roadster is lean and muscular-looking, just like the Harley-Davidson Roadster. It comes equipped with all-LED lights, a headlight protector, bar-end mirrors, and a small windscreen. The Yezdi Roadster gets a teardrop-shaped 12.5-litre fuel tank with tank pads on both sides, a split-type seat, and cushioned backrest. The motorcycle is suspended on a telescopic fork at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear. For braking, it uses a 320/240mm disc setup assisted by dual-channel ABS with 'Road', 'Off-road', and 'Rain' modes. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for the dealership dearership details.

Q. Being a beginner which bike will be best for me, Jawa42, RE-Meteor or Honda H-ness??!!
  • Selecting between the Honda Hness CB350, Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and Jawa 42 would depend on certain factors such as your budget, preference of the segment, performance figures, features required, etc. Jawa is the only bike here using a short-stroke, performance-oriented engine with a 6-speed transmission. Sure it’s fast, but it lacks the retro laidback charm of an under-the-square engine, something we think is crucial for a buyer in this segment. Whereas if we talk about Royal Enfield Meteor 350, it is a good option for those looking for a comfortable city slicker and fancy occasional long-distance trips. At standstill, the Meteor actually feels much lighter than you’d imagine, and when you get going it feels unexpectedly responsive. The sharper rake and the way the new motorcycle carries its weight will put even less experienced riders at ease on this RE. Once you adapt to the quickness and lightness of the steering and the stretched-out seating position, you will find yourself slicing through traffic without breaking a sweat. On the other hand, if you are looking for a comfortable, easy-to-handle bike with marries old-school charm and modern sensibilities well, you may go for Honda Hness CB350. It gets a prominent thumper exhaust note and it is the most affordable bike in India to get traction control. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for dealership.
Q. I am planning to buy Meteor 350. Shall wait for Classic 350 or Hunter 350?
  • As Royal Enfield Hunter 350 and 2021 Royal Enfield Classic 350 hasn't launched. You may go for Royal Enfield Meteor 350 which is available now. Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is a good option. Meteor 350 is powered by an all-new 349cc air-cooled SOHC 2-valve motor with fuel injection. The powerplant generates 20.4PS at 6100rpm and 27Nm at 4000rpm, working in conjunction with a 5-speed transmission. The engine is counterbalanced for optimum refinement. In terms of engine refinement, build quality, and modern features, the Meteor 350 has the edge. Meteor 350 is very comfortable, both in terms of rider ergonomics and suspension tune.

    the absolute best for you 

    The Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is a popular cruiser bike known for its neo-retro design, comfortable riding posture. I claims its mileage is around 41.9 kmpl, but it may vary depending on riding style and conditions . When i ride it in highways its top speed is around 115-120 kmph. It has a fuel tank capacity of around 15 liters. Due to its heavy weight i feel uncomfortable to ride it in tough traffic conditions .

    Classic Elegance with Modern Flares 

    Ever since I got my Vespa VXL 125, each ride has felt somewhat like a parade. This scooter does not just get you from point A to B, it does so with an unmatched style. The glossy paint, rounded mirrors and stylish finish capture everyone's attention. The performance is reliable with a 125 cc engine that offers smooth acceleration and achieves a mileage of about 45 kmpl.On the downside, the Vespa VXL 125 could improve its seat comfort it feels a little stiff during longer rides.

It is a partner of my father since 1 year . It has a 124.45cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine. The VXL 125 features the classic Vespa design with a rounded headlight, chrome accents, a comfortable seat. ABS is not available on any variant of the VXL 125 which is a major concern for safety .

    Good pickup and different look 

    It is a fashion icon scooter and is a very nice scooter with great pickup and the power in this scooter is also good. The space in this scooter is very good and is also comfortable scooter but the parts are not available everywhere. The smoothness of this scooter is very good without any vibration and the ride quality is good but the price is high. It gives a very different feeling to drive this scooter and the stability of this scooter is good but the suspension is hard.

    This scooter stands out with its elegant design  

    I have been riding the Vespa VXL 125 for a few months and it is very easy to handle. This scooter stands out with its elegant design and the smooth curves which encapsulate the classic Italian style. Equipped with a 125cc engine, it mirrors the power output of the SXL model providing sufficient thrust for roaming through traffic.Handling is a high point, courtesy of its well designed front suspension and sturdy rear. The braking with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, instills confidencenspecially in sudden stop scenarios.

    Dealer nearby1you 

    I am a vespa owner for the past three months in kochi and i have to say that the after sales services provided1by vespa and aprilia dealer is nowhere near to even the standards of honda or hero scooter services.My scooter1had major electrical issues from the factory and died completely while on road during a christmas1midnight.Then i had to push the scooter all the way to my home and called road side assistance in the morning1and they came and took the scooter to the service centre and i picked it up two days later with the rear1number plate dented and scratched.Again the same electrical issue happened and this time i met with an1accident as a result of it.After questioning them their quality of services and expressing my frustration of1spending 1.4 lakhs on a scooter that constantly breaks down, They agreed to look into it thoroughly and they replaced1the complete fly wheel magneto assembly.I reported the same to vespa customer care and till now, I have not1received a follow up call from them.As a result of the accident, My brand new scooter has scratches on its1body and when i asked them to fix it as it was not caused due to my negligence, They just painted the centre1stand after i insisted a lot and said that the rest of the scratches are negligible.As i didn't have time to1spare behind this vehicle anymore, I just left it as it is and is thinking of fixing it under insurance1later.I have to say that any people looking forward to buying aprilia or vespa must make sure that the dealer1who services your vehicle has a good reputation and is committed.I had a small talk with the new customers of1vespa and aprilia and have come to know that some are facing electrical issues with the vehicle.So, Please1research well before spending such a huge amount of money.Even though i am a vespa owner, I don't find it1worth spending so much considering its low mileage, Dearer spare parts and low quality after sales service.I1would personally not recommend any of their scooters to my dear and near ones as a person who is using it1daily.The electrical issue that i had come across is just one among all the issues that i have faced since1purchase.The other issues include, Engine oil leak from drain bolt and engine oil filler cap after first1service due to failure to replace the respective gaskets, Water ingression in rear left indicator due to a1broken indicator assembly from factory which i fixed using araldite and ignition coil fault that caused1frequent ignition failures.All these have happened only within the second service of this scooter and i feel1like selling this scooter off as soon as possible but is still holding onto it because of the huge amount of1money that i have spent on it.So, Please verify with anyone whom you know have purchased from a dealer nearby1you before spending such a large amount.If you have no sources then, At least check for google reviews and1read all reviews carefully.Please, I have suffered a lot and now i don't want anybody else falling unknowingly1into their 'premium experience' tagline.So, Kindly research a lot and invest your hard earned money wisely.
