Great bike
Overall the bike is great for both city and highway rides as I stand 6.2 ft at 88 kg and it quite nimble as well as the weight distribution is very good with great torque and power figures. It’s a comfortable bike but the rear suspension is a bit stiff which can easily be resolved by replacing it with the classic Nitrox ones and it’s decently priced as well. However the biggest cons I found was the front led headlight which is honestly pathetic and the unreliable fuel tank indicator.

Good investment for future
I choose this for its style modern look and millage due to my daily commute and my budget. With this bike, my experience was amazing, easy to handle, no tiredness, feels well on long ride, I go to the nearby cities. Smooth on highway and city traffic is difficult to handle. Seat also comfortable. On highway, it feels like a rocket. It is more comfortable to ride. My plan is to go Ladakh with this bike and come. Nice bike. My friend was saying, this an amazing bike, you can go for this. Its handling so easy on highway. It feel comfortable to ride and improve my riding posture with time. This is the beautiful machine for every young ones.

Awesome cruiser bike in this segment.
Best highway bike for long trips. This bike is recommended for the trip lovers and long route destinations. Also, this is best for daily use from office to home. This bike is best comfortable bike in this segment. Best experience ever. I drove that bike from Jalandhar to manali and the tour was very comfortable. I would always recommend meteor 350 in this segment. Relax driving is always best rather than fast driving. Yes, if you are looking for best highway comfortable bike, then go for meteor 350. This is basically confortable with both solo and pillon, and for long trips you can go for this bike. Just speed would be less rest is ok.

Meteor 350
I'm riding this bike on highway pretty good performance and i love this bike and i drove it from kozhikode to idukki very good comfort and no back pain, i reach idukki about 5.5 hours and that is prestty fast. High perfomance and a mileage of 30 km per litre, i think this is decent good comfort can ride smoothly 250-300 km without any strain in back good sitting position in long ride we can get upto 35 km per litre. Yes of course good mileage for a 350 cc cruiser good perfomance, good comfort, decent mileage of 30-35 kilo metre per litre good service from royal enfield i think it is best in the market with this price range.

Comfortable bike
My friend suggested that it would be better and yes its better plus best for long and slow riding so much comfortable. People need to go classy over flashy. If you want slow ride and comfort better it is good. Comfort is awesome when you are riding all eyes on you but it's down clearance a bit off but it's ok, design is awesome and not feeling any bumps. I ride 1284km till now and it's awesome and great. Go for it Yes of course, I recommend this bike to buy but if you dont feel slow ride maybe this bike is not for you. Its very Heavy to handle in speed the fear of accident can take places so ride safe and slow.

Yamaha r15 v4 is a great fully faired sports bike
The reason i chose this bike was quite a story in short, i was a student who was about get in college and i needed a bike to travel a quite moderate distance. When i was searching for a bike which is highly affordable as well as stylish on the looks and has great features too! Then i came across this masterpiece which was totally worth it. The ride is great so far. But there are few factors to look for if a beginner is going to buy this bike, as a fully fair bike the biggest issue would be comfort on long ride eg. Posture issue because of the aggressive stance fully fair bikes usually have. But for the short to moderate distance its great soo far. And handling also good, and mileage is better than expected. One more thing to consider, if someone lives in a crowded city like area they can this as this bike isn't a street fighter or naked body bike for city specific conditions. I would absolutely recommend this bike to even a beginner who want to get a thrilling ride experience of a fully fair bike at price rang as low as this, mileage also great compared to other similar bikes, great handling too, maintenance is also fairly rated i would say, totally worth it!
