Royal Enfield Meteor 350 New Colour
Colour options for Meteor 350 are based on the variant. The base Fireball variant offers colour choices of red and yellow. Both of these are in glossy finish. Green is a primary colour and its matte finish will enable it to target an entirely new group of users.
Meteor 350 new matte green colour option utilizes a blacked-out theme, similar to Fireball red and yellow. The green paint can be seen on the fuel tank. Most other components have been blacked out such as handlebar, engine, side panels, rear view mirrors, alloy wheels and exhaust. Wheel edges have matte green strips, but it’s not so conspicuous due to its light shade. These are more pronounced on Fireball Red and Yellow colour variants.
Other colour options for Meteor 350 include Stellar Red, Blue and Black. Top-spec variants are Supernova Blue and Supernova Brown. New Supernova Red has also been launched today.
