Is the Meteor 350's retro looks too impractical for everyday use?
The Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is famous for its classic, retro inspired design that many riders with a penchant for vintage aesthetics can't resist. But the styling of this bike brings to question its practicality in today’s traffic and urban environments. Others say the cost of those modern conveniences and safety features is the classic look. Some say that the simplicity of the design actually makes it more practical. The bike must be visible in traffic, easy to maintain, with storage options and how it handles different riding conditions, from city commutes to weekend getaways. Whether the retro styling hurts the bikes long term durability and resistance to wear and tear as compared to modern designs is also up for debate. Does the Meteor 350's classic look restrict its usability as a daily rider in today's world?
I’ve been using mine as a daily commuter for over a year with no complaints about the retro styling. In fact, it's been great! With its simple design, it means less to go wrong and basic maintenance is a breeze. It’s also a real head turner in traffic, and I think it makes me more visible to other drivers as well.
