Adjustable levers are a must. Since the ones that come stock are too far for my small hands.

Better brake pads and steel braided lines are what I would say. It really makes for better feel and stopping power.

Forget performance mods; get a better seat. In longer rides, your butt will thank you.

If your bike didn't come with a quickshifter, get one. It’s a game changer for sporty riding.

I opted for better highway cruising by swapping the sprockets. It sacrificed a bit of acceleration, but it's way more comfortable now.
One thing that wasn’t obvious until you ran into a few people who had owned one of the Hunter 350 is that, even with Royal Enfield’s notorious recent reliability then and consistent records now, the new Hunter seems even worse.

In fact, the Hunter has been more reliable than my old Classic 350. The simpler design seems to have fewer potential failure points, and less vibration means fewer things rattling loose.

I have had my Hunter for about 8 months and have been back to the service center three times already. It’s nothing major but annoying little things keep popping up. The Meteor feels less reliable than my friend's.

It's hit or miss. For some people I know, they have zero issues, others have little issues all the time. I believe RE's quality control is still uneven across the board.

I've heard suspension and exhaust issues with the Hunter, but engine and electronics seem more reliable. It’s probably not a huge leap forward, but it’s probably on par with other recent RE models.

I've worked on a few Hunters before, as a mechanic. The good thing about them is that they are easier to work on than other REs, for reliability. They still have some of the typical RE quirks, but.

It’s reliable if you stay on top of maintenance, I think. I’ve seen a lot of the issues from people not riding according to the service schedule or pushing the bike too hard too soon before the break in period is completed.

The Hunter just doesn't feel as reliable to me, as it does coming from Japanese bikes. It has character, and there are occasional hiccups, but that’s what makes up for it. Right, all part of the RE experience.

In stop-and-go traffic, the heat from the engine is intense. Soon after, your legs feel like they’re in an oven.

Surprisingly, finding a helmet that didn't interfere with the aggressive riding position was surprisingly tricky.

The stock mirrors are pretty worthless. You see less of the traffic behind you and more of your elbows.

If you ride it hard, it's a bit of a fuel guzzler. That small tank also means more stops for fuel on long rides.

It’s a real pain because there’s no storage space. It's hard enough to fit a small toolkit.

The front brake is super sensitive. I had to get used to it without doing stoppies by accident.

It gets way more attention than I thought it would. You will have random people wanting photos and rides.
