ASC Manager: We will check again and get back. We have to get approval from our Regional Manager to replace the part as we don’t see any anomaly in the testing
@silverstreakcbe Welcome to the World of Royal Enfield. Firstly congratulations on your purchase and wish you many more happy miles on the Meteor. I have owned a RE Classic 350 for 6 years which was plagued with multiple issues - ranging from ampere meter short-circuiting to a (permanently) dead battery (a weird brand called Wind if I remember correctly), clutch wire snapping off, and last but not the least chain sprocket failing.

Hope RE has rectified the major issues in the new bike's lineup (i guess minor ones like the fuel indicator issues still remain).

The above-quoted lines show the way RE after-sales functions. Some Meteors were recently recalled for faults in their ignition coils. Please check the time frame (i think it's for bikes manufactured between Dec'20 & April'21) and hope your bike doesn't belong to the given series.

Pls keep a sharp lookout for any issues and make sure to bring them to the dealership service guy's notice immediately.

I think RE service guys are correct. Most owner's of RE Meteor or INT650 are used to a 100,125 or 150 cc bikes which have fuel "reserve" of 1 or 2 litres. Meteor has Fuel pump (Fuel injection system), which needs minimum fuel in the tank to be quite high. Meteor has a reserve of 5 litres, may be because this fuel pump. This problem is not a problem at all. My Meteor starts showing low fuel and goes more than 110 kms after that. So that's the issue IMHO.
