twin piston caliper work very well , better than most bikes in fact , and actually deliver decent stopping power . Probably because of the long wheelbase , rearward weight distribution and not overly intrusive ABS . The front 320mm disc and two-piston caliper works well enough , although I ’ d still prefer there were two of them for a bit more bite . Suspension action is quite good offering a comfortable and mostly controlled ride . The rear only gets unsettled when the road surface is very bumpy . The twin rear shocks offer 101mm of axle travel and have five steps of preload adjustment . USD forks with 43mm stanchions provide 120mm of travel . Their action is good , riding nicely over bumps , delivering good feedback and feel .
FIT AND FINISH The Super Meteor has great looking build quality , the fit and finish seem excellent . Our test machine came in an understated dark green and black with lots of chrome , polished alloy , and nice detailing . The look is clearly retro , but with plenty of modern touches , like
