The bikes were recalled in India, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Australia & New Zealand
Royal Enfield issued a recall for 236,966 units of the Meteor 350, Classic 350 and the Bullet 350 combined, in seven countries – India, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Australia and New Zealand. The company says there could be a potential defect with the ignition coil, which could result in the engine misfiring, reduced vehicle performance and an electric short circuit, in rare cases. RE said that the defect was discovered during routine internal testing and the issue has been clearly identified and isolated to specific batches of material sourced from its external supplier between December 2020 and April 2021.

The units recalled were manufactured between December 2020 and April 2021. The Meteor motorcycles manufactured and sold between December 2020 and April 2021, while the Classic and Bullet manufactured and sold between January and April 2021. Royal Enfield says that not all motorcycles may have the defect part, but in line with the company’s safety regulations and precautionary measure, RE decided to issue a proactive recall for all models. These motorcycles will undergo inspection and replacement of the said defective part, if required. Royal Enfield estimates that less than 10 per cent of these motorcycles will require replacement of the part.
