When two worlds collide in the best possible way, you get something special. That’s what happens when Royal Enfield teams up with The Great Frog, London’s legendary jewellery brand known for their rock ‘n’ roll attitude and handcrafted silver pieces. The result? A Super Meteor 650 that’s been completely reimagined as a custom chopper that would make any rebel proud.
Ever wondered what happens when motorcycling meets pure rock ‘n’ roll spirit? This collaboration answers that question in style. Unveiled at London’s Bike Shed Moto Show, this isn’t just another custom build it’s a statement piece that screams attitude from every angle.
Design and Transformation
Transforming the Super Meteor 650 into a custom chopper is like witnessing magic unfold. The gentle cruiser has been replaced by something that is more akin to rocking out at an arena – and it looks like it rolled out from a backstage area. With the use of carbon fibre, this bike is lightweight which enhances its aggressive posture and makes it biomechanically implementing astounding agility.
What stands out is how the jeweller’s artistry achieves The Great Frog’s motorcycle design. Every detailing has been meticulously designed as silver adds-ons where the fantastic craftsmanship has been done in rings, which are contrived for the purpose of adorning. The bike doesn’t only appear custom rather it truly appears gorgeous with wheels.
Beside the core, they get into cooperation with the bike as well. Alongside the custom bike, they crafted an exclusive clothing line that embodies the spirit of both companies. The limited edition ring is hand crafted in London and marks the elegance of a true bike enthusiast fashion which captures everything their dreams would ever behold.
Engine and Performance Specs
Beneath that tough exterior lies the soul of a true cruiser. Here’s what powers this custom beast:Engine: 648cc air-oil cooled parallel-twin Power Output: 46 bhp at 7,250 rpm Torque: 52.3 Nm at 5,650 rpm Transmission: 6-speed gearbox Exhaust: Zard high-performance system 46 bhp isn’t a lot these days but it’s just right for this bike. This isn’t about drag racing or track days – it’s about cruising with attitude and making an entrance wherever you go. The Zard exhaust is worth noting. Not just for looks.
Riding Experience and Handling
This custom build still feels like a Super Meteor. Low and mean looking but easy to ride for all levels of riders.
The extended front end and raked-out geometry gives it that chopper look but it’s still practical for real world riding. It won’t corner like a sportbike but that’s not the point. This is about the journey not the destination and every mile is an experience when you’re riding something this unique.
The carbon fiber parts don’t just look good they actually improve the handling by reducing weight in key areas. Form follows function even in a build that’s all about making a statement.
The Collaboration Story
Royal Enfield and The Great Frog have partnered together for far more than just marketing purposes. They both admire finely done works of art as well as counterculture, and appreciate the notion of going the extra mile to make things worthwhile.
In the words of Mohit Dhar Jayal, Royal Enfield’s Chief Brand Officer, ‘this is about riding with soul.’ It is a call to remember motorcycles as more than a means of travel or a pastime; they advocate them further as vehicles of identity and lifestyle.
The collaboration is limited in scope, making it even more meaningful. The sterling silver ring and the apparel collection will be sold exclusively at The Great Frog’s flagship store in London, as well as their branches in Los Angeles and New York City, ensuring these pieces remain truly exclusive to motorcycle culture.
Market Impact and Availability
While this custom build is a one-off showpiece it demonstrates Royal Enfield’s commitment to the custom culture that surrounds their motorcycles. The standard Super Meteor 650 has already proven popular with riders looking for accessible cruising performance and seeing what’s possible with some imagination only adds to its appeal.
The collaboration also shows how motorcycle manufacturers are recognizing the importance of lifestyle and culture beyond the bike itself. When you can tie motorcycling to music, fashion and art you create something that resonates on multiple levels.
