The Rs 7,000 price hike for the Meteor 350 is steep, but it was expected. At the earlier prices, the Meteor 350’s Fireball variant was more affordable than the 2021 Classic 350’s Halcyon variant (most affordable dual-channel ABS variant). A similar story was with the top variants of both the bikes, with the Meteor being over Rs 7,000 more affordable than the Classic 350.

The retro roadster has been the company’s primary seller, and with such a massive price difference between the two, the Meteor could pose a serious threat, especially since both bikes are based on the same platform and share multiple components.
What’s puzzling is the Rs 5,000 price hike for the Himalayan. When Royal Enfield launched the 2021 iteration earlier this year, it demanded a premium of Rs 10,000 over the 2020 model. Over the next six months, the price gap has shot up by an additional Rs 9,000. Despite the massive hikes, there has been no substantial change in the bike since its inception. However, the top variant of the Himalayan is still Rs 35,000 cheaper than the KTM 250 Adventure, which we must mention offers a more powerful and sophisticated engine.
If you have been planning to get the Himalayan and aren’t too happy with the new prices, fret not. There’s a more affordable bike, called the Royal Enfield Scram that will debut soon.
Royal Enfield Meteor 350 (2020-2025) User Reviews
In term of riding the bike really good I've had many great riding experiences with it. The performance is excellent and fuel tank capacity is also good. So there's no worry on long rides. The service network is available in many places so that's not a concern either. Maintenance costs are also quite reasonable.
Among all two-wheelers, the Royal Enfield Meteor offers the most comfortable ride, and its maintenance cost is also the lowest. It's a 350cc bike, yet it still delivers a mileage of 30–35 km/l on the road. For those who are passionate about two-wheeler riding, the best bike is the Royal Enfield Meteor.
I purchased it because it enhance the personality of a person more than 5.6 ft and also heavy weight people. The seating position is comfortable, mileage is good, every where it can give you comfortable seating. Can we used daily for office and heavy traffic. Less heating engine.

Riding about my 4 years of experience with this bike so I have travelled from Thane to hampi, 5 jyotirlinga of Maharashtra, other divine places with it is 25000 km overall. It was super comfortable. Mileage friendly, masculine look cruise Wonderful , stable and cruises for long distance. It is not heavy on road. Good road presence. Less torque good power. The build quality is awesome.

Dream bike for a middle class family, I purchased it in june 2021 with all my savings while working. It cost me 2.40 lacs in cash as I have ordered Glossy black which is non standard colour so I have to pay extra for it. Talking about my 4.5 years of experience with this bike so the max i go with it is 800 km (up+down) to Mussoorie UK. I like it.

Go for long routes, My Royal Enfield Meteor Stellar Black 350cc is Made same as Harley Davidson.
