Lookie what we got here!

If all goes well, @Johnl and I will install it Saturday and post a video Sunday.

For the uninitiated: this is the performance camshaft available from Hitchcock's for the J-platform Royal Enfield 349cc engine.

Did you know I'm a time traveler?

My present self just made my wife's future self angry, by ordering a new motorcycle part. 😜

So, now that we know the ECU swap allows the Meteor 350 to perform beyond the stock limiter, I'm excited to experiment with gearing and power.

It will be interesting to see how we can turn a bike made for highly regulated markets into something that can keep up with a small v-twin, and using only drop-in mods.

It's a real testament to Royal Enfield and the aftermarket.

Further confirmation...

Tonight I took the Meteor to a spot on my commute where I regularly hit the speed limiter. It's a decline with new pavement, on a closed road (concrete barriers). The speed limit is 75 mph, and any creep above that would cause the bike to buck as the ECU choked it.

Though the speed is sufficient, the inertia changes are dangerous, imo, so I feather the clutch, which is still not ideal.

Tonight we made 85 mph top speed (137 kph).

Myth Confirmed:

Swapping a Hunter 350 throttle body (mated with ECU) for the Meteor 350 stock throttle body eliminates the speed limiter.

A quick test ride netted a top speed of 76 mph (122 kph) on a flat road with ~250 lb payload of rider, saddlebags, and gear.

This means it's still rev limited to around 5750 rpm, which is consistent with Hitchcock's dyno session on a stock Meteor.

Weekend plans booked...!

#royalenfield #motorcycles #royalhell

I've got a Hunter 350 throttle body on the way, will be mounting on my Meteor 350.

This will be the first swap of four, in this progression:

- throttle body (speed limiter delete)
- front sprocket (gear up)
- rear sprocket (gear up)
- performance cam (offset power loss from gear-up)

My experience will be captured on video, for RoyalHellCustoms.com

Following up on this post from last night, my daughter took a special request and did mine, too 🤙

My daughter decorated her helmet, and I think it looks better than a factory wrap!

I think #royalhell is going to have to acquire some more helmets and raffle them off, for charity.

On the waiting list for a new cam for my Meteor 350. This will be the most significant mod I do to this daily rider, this year. I'm stupid excited.

As far as mods go, this one is really simple and satisfying to complete.
