Royal Enfield Meteor is the cruiser-style motorcycle launched after
the discontinuation of the Thunderbird that ruled the market for
decades. This bike has a better refined and smoother engine and provides
a lot better experience than the UCE engines.
To ensure that the bike performs optimally, it requires regular service and Engine Oil changes.

Benefits of Choosing the correct engine oil
Choosing
the correct engine oil ensures the bike has the best riding experience.
The correct engine oil for you will be the one that best suits your
budget and provides the best performance at a particular price point.
Using
incorrect engine oil leads to a downfall in bike performance, wear and
tear, and damage to the significant components of the engine.
Recommend Engine Oil Grade of Meteor 350cc
Royal Enfield recommends using the 10W 50 engine oil that satisfies the API SL and JASO MA & MA2 specifications.
The
new engine is much more compact and uses a 10w 50 viscosity grade oil
instead of the 15w 50 grade. The oil is thinner than ever allowing easy
access to all parts of this new compact engine.
Engine Oil Capacity of Meteor 350cc
As I have already mentioned, the newer engine in Meteor is more compact than before and thus uses less engine oil than before.
The Engine Oil capacity of the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 is 1.7 liters (1700ml).
Best Engine Oil for Meteor 350cc
Castrol Power Ultimate 10w50 SuperBike
Castrol
Power Ultimate Super Bike Edition is one of the most premium engine oil
in the market. This oil comes with an extraordinary 5 in 1 technology
that improves acceleration, protects the engine, and enhances the
performance with better cooling and a smoother riding experience.
This oil is a little costlier. You can also go with its normal variant which too provides a much more efficient performance.
Motul 7100 10w 50
Motul
is another reputed brand in the Indian Market. The Motul 7100 is one of
the most common and highly use synthetic oil that has an overall
excellent response. The oil makes riding much smoother and reduces
vibration and noise.
This oil has a great global review. Amazon recorded a 4.5 out of 5-star rating for this oil which is tremendously well.
LiquiMoly Street Race 10w 50
LiquiMoly
is the official and exclusive engine oil partner for the MotoGP. They
are manufacturers of one of the most finest and premium synthetic oils
in the market.
The issue with LiquiMoly is
that their oil is Imported to India and is not manufactured here. Thus
they are priced at a very much high price which they actually do not
deserve in my opinion.
Overall this oil gives a
good experience but I would always recommend going with either Castrol
Power Ultimate Or Motul 7100 rather than investing in this oil.
Total Energies 10w 50
It
is a High-Performance engine oil from the brand Total which ensures the
best performance at all temperature ranges. This oil is formulated with
durability-improving technology that enhances protection against wear
and tear.
