Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 (2026) Spied Testing in Spain

Spain- Royal Enfield’s Super Meteor 650 has been spotted testing its upcoming 2026 model in Spain, indicating several updates are on the way. The test mule confirms the use of the familiar 650cc twin-cylinder engine, dispelling rumours of a new 750cc cruiser at least for now.

The side panel on the prototype clearly reads "650", ruling out any engine displacement bump. Interestingly, this test mule continues to feature a single front disc brake, unlike the dual-disc setups seen on the upcoming 750cc Interceptor and Himalayan models. This further supports the assumption that the model in testing is an evolution of the existing Super Meteor, not an all-new platform.

One of the key criticisms of the current Super Meteor has been its firm rear suspension with limited travel. The test bike seems to address this with a reworked rear suspension setup, likely aiming to improve comfort particularly for Indian roads. The Showa upside-down front forks may also be updated to enhance ride quality.

Another notable change could come in the form of a new all-digital instrument cluster, potentially replacing the current semi-digital unit with Tripper navigation pod. Based on the spy shots, the new console may include integrated connected features, offering riders more convenience and functionality.

Mechanically, the bike will likely retain its 648cc parallel-twin engine, delivering 46.3 bhp at 7,250 rpm and 52.3 Nm of torque at 5,650 rpm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The test bike appears to keep the existing 19-inch front and 16-inch rear wheels, along with 320mm front and 300mm rear disc brakes and dual-channel ABS.

In terms of dimensions, the Super Meteor 650 remains a substantial cruiser with a 1,500mm wheelbase, 2,260mm length, 1,155mm height, and 890mm width (excluding mirrors). It continues to offer a seat height of 740mm, ground clearance of 135mm, and a 15.7-litre fuel tank, maintaining its strong highway touring credentials.

With these likely updates in ride comfort, features, and possibly new colour schemes, Royal Enfield aims to refine its premium cruiser to better meet the expectations of riders in global markets like Europe and North America where the 650 twins have already made a significant impact.
