2023 Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 launched in Malaysia

KUALA LUMPUR: After making its debut last month, the all-new Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 has now officially arrived in Malaysia. The local distributor and importer of Royal Enfield motorcycles, Didi Group, offers the new Super Meteor 650 in three versions, priced as follows -

Variant	Price (on the road, without insurance)
Super Meteor Single (Astral)	RM 37,900
Super Meteor Dual (Interstellar)	RM 38,300
Super Meteor Tourer (Celestial)	RM 39,300

The key highlights of the new Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 are -

Iconic parallel twin-engine

All three variants are powered by the brand’s iconic 648-cc parallel twin engine which is capable of generating a maximum power of 47 PS at 7250 rpm and a peak torque of 52.3 Nm at 5650 rpm. Sending power to the rear wheel is a six-speed gearbox mated to a chain final drive system. 

Low-slung seat

The bike features a low-set, wide seat with a laid-back riding stance offering riders a comfortable cruising experience, irrespective of the number of kilometres to be driven.

Sculpted fuel tank

Another remarkable highlight of the new Royal Enfield bike is a spacious, teardrop tank, which not only adds to the bike's aesthetic appeal but also offers practical advantages to those who crave long-distance journeys without the constant need to refuel. 

USD suspension and disc brakes 

The  Super Meteor 650 comes equipped with upside-down forks at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear. According to the automaker, the suspension setup promises complete confidence and control whether you are driving on crowded streets, open highways, or everything in between.

The braking duties are managed by a single 320 mm brake disc with a two-piston hydraulic calliper at the front and a single 300 mm disc with a two-piston calliper at the rear. The standard braking kit also includes a two-channel ABS for enhanced safety.

LED headlamp

With a cruiser-like styling, the bike features an all-new headlamp that combines retro aesthetics with modern LED lights.

Digi-analog instrument cluster

Delivering all important driving-related information to the rider is a digi-analog instrument panel that comes with a floating LCD screen and a built-in Tripper navigation system.

Alloy wheels 

The new Royal Enfield bike runs on 19-inch front and 16-inch alloy wheels shod with 100/90 and 150/80 tyres. The wider rear tyre ensures “improved traction and stability, even at the highest of speeds”, according to the automaker.

More upright ergonomics

The Super Meteor Tourer offers more upright ergonomics to the rider with a tall windscreen, a taller handlebar, and a pillion-seat backrest.
