2026 Royal Enfield Meteor 350

Easy Cruising, the Royal Enfield Way

Relaxed, refined and made for riders who believe the journey matters just as much as the destination, the 2026 Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is Royal Enfield's accessible take on the classic cruiser.

At its heart is the proven 349cc J-Series single-cylinder engine, delivering smooth, torque-rich performance with the unmistakable character of a long-stroke Royal Enfield single. A low 765mm seat height, relaxed riding position and confidence-inspiring chassis make the Meteor equally comfortable navigating everyday traffic or settling into a long weekend ride.

With its sculpted cruiser styling, generous 15-litre fuel tank, dual-channel ABS and comfortable rider-and-pillion seating, the Meteor 350 is an approachable motorcycle that encourages you to slow things down, take the long way home and simply enjoy the ride.
