Re: Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650cc, now unveiled

Folks from Hyderabad any showroom where I can visit to see all the colors available?

Everyone seems to have just one color mostly Green for test ride.

I booked Red. Just curious on how it might look. My alternative is Green. Would like to compare and see which might strike me better..

Re: Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650cc, now unveiled

Finally gave up hope of getting my customized Black Astral. The promised date was 1st April. Then they pushed it to mid-April and finally said mid-May with no guarantee of delivery in mid-May.

Took delivery of a regular Black Astral this week against somebody's cancellation. Haven't had time to ride the bike much but the 20 or so KMs that I rode it have been pretty fun.

Waiting for accessories too become available. Have seen some 3rd party accessories on YouTube but am not convinced about their quality. Any one has any pointers from where to get accessories (RE or 3rd party)?

I have seen all the colours in person, Red is ok in my opinion, I found the Astral Green, Blue and the Interstellar Grey the best out of all colours. I have an Astral Blue, but still colours are of individual choice and preference.

I had the Interstellar Green for two days as a replacement bike while my Bluebird was getting serviced, the blue turned a lot of heads, but not many noticed the Interstellar Green. This is just to give you a perspective. Trust this helps!

Thank you. Totally.

I guess green was feeling more closer to Black.
Since Blue being a single colour it might be looking better than the dual colour options.

@nbot, did you have this link from the beginning or it started assisting towards the end?
I had the same problem, I called the customer care of RE and go to know that, if you book bike from showroom directly then you don't get to track using RE app. This link appears only if you booked your bike through APP. Hope it helps

True. I too had booked in the showroom, it never appeared on the app. Got a call directly from dealer on arrival of bike.

I am not sure if what the customer care folks said is true. I booked mine from the dealership and can see as well as track it via the app.

The delivery manager took the responsibility of servicing and fixing the silencer.
Did they fix the silencer alignment issue for you bike? I feel mine too has a bit of alignment issue. The right one seems a bit off.

The issue was a bend clamp, they have put in an order and expected this week. I will post a picture once I have this fixed this week.

Can you share a picture of the silencer alignment in your bike?.

Also note that when they transport the bike and get it down from the truck, I have seen the handlers using the silencer as grip to lift the vehicle which could have caused this as this is a heavy bike.

Sure, just took them. Right one is definitely misaligned.

Probably they would have disabled it later not sure, but as of now I don't have the link in my Royal Enfield App. I have booked Interstellar Green from ITPL- Bengaluru showroom on 19th March 2023.

@varunezhava
It is definitely misaligned. Do take it up with your service centre.
I will wait for 6-12 months before I take any purchase decisions. The product is good but the entire sales process looks haphazard with such long waiting and accessories not being available.

Hi there. Did you customize your bike?

Any others that have received a customized bike?

I booked mine via the app only. So, I agree with you that the customer care is not telling the truth. In fact I got feeling that they have no idea on this.

What is your tentative delivery date? Did you go for any customization or its just off the shelf?

From the booking receipt it says 24-10-2023, but showroom personal told it will be delivered by June.
I have opted only pillion backrest as an accessory.
