Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 Spotted
The recently sighted test mule featured rear-end panniers, which were previously displayed by the brand at the 2022 Rider Mania event. This sighting could be related to testing the panniers for durability, fitting, and their impact on the bike's performance. Alternatively, it might indicate the brand's consideration of launching a new variant in the market. The lockable and removable bagger-style panniers are attached to the rear fender, complementing the bike's sleek appearance with their similar shape. Upon closer examination, one can observe a noticeable gap between the exhaust and the panniers.
If the brand intends to provide these panniers as an official accessory for the Super Meteor, it would enhance the motorcycle's practicality for long tours. As a cruiser, the Super Meteor would greatly benefit from such accessories that riders can easily attach for extended journeys.
