                  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.

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.

                  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.

                  Driven by single person only
                  Bike's performance is an excellent, powerful pickup, starts easily, one handed used only, driven 7700 km only within 3 and half years. Overall experience is memorable, sound is normal, highway experience is totally amazing, driving R15S vs other bikes is totally different, average can be maintained if we drive well.

                  The best bike of segment
                  Its a stylish bike. Very good looking and powerful with a muscular body and heavy duty. I love the bike since beginning, my dream bike and very solid bike. Better in every aspect in mileage, great in looks and performance. It's very sharp looking and comfortable for long rides also a good mileage provider, good acceleration and pickup, fast, smooth, tension free riding and less maintenance bike for sure. In this price range, it's the best. The best bike. I would definitely recommend to young guys, not for old grandpa's, it gonna make you feel royal and elegant, very strong presence and that's why I am recommending this bike to all of my friends.

                  Pocket rocket
                  The only bike in the segment which provides you punchy power and aggressive position it may have some cons still who are above 5.5 height can ride this rocket comfortable. Personally I love riding sports bike and this is seriously a legendary one in the segment also from 200cc segment. I reached upto 153 of speed on a highway which is so much within a 155cc segment. End of the day its very sexy for enthusiasts who prioritise power over features. So good i mean its powerful but not that torquey its so light weight and too much powerful no braking issues for me personally and mileage i got is around 42 to 45 in city and around 50 on highways too good for college students but you get back pains and spine problems not suitable for long rides good for flicking in traffic. Yes i do, The things you have to consider while buying this is its power packed for a beginner its good for track not suitable for long rides and also you have to be confident while driving this when VVA kicks in you just fly.

                  The best starting Sports Bike
                  Great bike overall. Fantastic control and road presence. Wish I had purchased this bike earlier. Crazy engine performance. Loved it. The bikes gear shift mechanism is very smooth. Easily touches 100+ speeds with full control. Great impactful headlights and maneuverability even on bumpy roads. Very easy to handle when compared to other similar bikes.
