Buying experience was very smooth
Buying experience was very smooth and simple , riding meteor feels great , low speed cruising and the feeling of pure raw engine roaring is just out of the world . It's power is unmatched, and seat comfort is where it beats most of the motor vehicles in its segment. Overall if someone wants a cruiser bike with powerful engine and comfortable seat ,meteor 350 is the ultimate catch.

Best for Highway
It's a really nice bike and comfortable....the great feature I liked the most about this bike was mileage. To get such a mileage with such a heavy cc engine is a great deal to be honest and the ride is also so comfortable you won't feel tired in long rides...the looks compliments this bike even more.

Good performance
Good mileage and safety was very very good and no need to discuss about the speed it was really an good experience to me. The speed war near lt was on the roads highways the speed goes high we can drive on the streets the mileage goes low and when we go to the highway then the mileage increases and it is useful.

My Opinion on hero Xtreme 160r
Speed and look are awesome. And handling are outstanding. By the way. It's value for money. Iam saying like this because iam using this bike from 1 year and it's still giving me it's best. But theres only speed limit of 120. One thing I like the most are it's headlight it's so bright and clear you can see properly in the night and dark areas
