Recently Asked User Questions

Q. What is the difference between Royal Enfield Meteor 350 Fireball and Supernova?
  • Well, all the variants are having the same engine and performance the only difference one will spot is in the appearance. Here Fireball is the first variant, this is the most basic variant of the lot, and thanks to its basic equipment levels, it bears the closest resemblance to the erstwhile Thunderbird X 350. Points worth noting here are that the alloys are a plain black design, the tank logo is a sticker, the exhaust is blacked out, and there is no backrest. The mid-range variant is called Stellar, and it gets a chrome-finished exhaust system, a rear backrest, and 3D tank logos. However, it still has to make do with the all-black alloy wheels. On the top is Supernova variant that looks like a pukka tourer straight from the showroom, not least thanks to its large front screen. In addition to this, it also gets smart-looking diamond-cut alloy wheels, dual-tone paint schemes, and contrasting seats.
Q. Which is the best between Stellar or Supernova? I know the specifications and all details but confused.
  • The top-spec Supernova variant is more oriented towards touring with a large windshield and more premium seats. In addition to this, it also gets smart-looking diamond-cut alloy wheels, dual-tone paint schemes, and contrasting seats. Stellar is the slightly more practical variant with a cushioned backrest as standard and chrome finish on the exhaust system, fuel injector cover and handlebar. Apart from colour-coded fenders and side panels, this variant also gets 3D logos for an added dose of premiumness. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Q. Which is better Honda Hness 350 or RE Meteor 350? I want my bike for longer ride like 700kms and I have back pain issue too.
  • I have done couple of long rides on hness. Easy to do 400kms a day with split seats. Yet to take my meteor out on a long ride (will post once I get a chance to). But I must say short distance drive (50 kms) is more fun on meteor. Meteor has better gearing and gear changes are very smooth.
  • I have both , but Hness is more powerful bike get top end easily 130+ whereas Meteor slower than Hness.
  • Both are comfortable for long ride, meteor slight edge over Hness CB 350, over all hness is good.

    Looks is above all models of Royal enfield 

    " The Royal Enfield Meteor 350 flaunts its meticulously crafted cruiser style along with its encouraging performance. The target audience has its mind on the prime engine, compactness, and the user-friendliness of the keyboard along with easy smartphone connectivity. Chill rides, impressive torque, and thoughtfully conceived design are the highlights of the style which are appealing both for week-end-cruising and urban commuting. Though some users have pointed out the gas throttle, they contributed to the previous version of the vehicle and should be amended in the next modified version."

    Comfort level 

    Both the bikes offer same comfort level.Only difference is the windshield in supernova, Which on high speeds blasts lots of air on driver's face.So if you wear a half face helmet then it may cause some difficulty in cruising.
