Royal Enfield KXA00102 Brown Passenger Backrest Pad for Meteor 350

Royal Enfield KXA00102 Brown Passenger Backrest Pad for Meteor 350

Complete the Meteor 350's passenger backrest with a genuine brown cushion designed to support the pillion's lower-back area. Royal Enfield KXA00102 is the official brown Passenger Backrest Pad for the Meteor 350 MY20 onward. Its colour and construction are designed to coordinate with Royal Enfield's brown Meteor seating accessories while giving the passenger a supported contact surface behind the seat.

The pad is constructed in the same manner as the matching seats and is intended to support the pillion's lumbar area. It mounts to Royal Enfield's model-specific passenger backrest structure and forms the cushioned front section of the complete backrest assembly.

Essential purchase warning: KXA00102 is the brown cushion/pad only. It does not include the cast-aluminium backrest arms, rear backplate or complete mounting hardware. A compatible Royal Enfield Meteor 350 Passenger Backrest Mounts kit must already be fitted or purchased separately.

What This Product Is

KXA00102 is a model-specific brown passenger backrest pad made for the Royal Enfield Meteor 350. It is not a complete standalone backrest and cannot be safely attached directly to the motorcycle without the correct Royal Enfield backrest mounting structure.

The cushion faces forward towards the passenger. The separate backrest mount provides the structural arms, rear backplate and fixing positions used to secure the pad. Once correctly assembled, the pad provides a finished factory-accessory appearance and a supported surface for the pillion.

Key Features

• Genuine Royal Enfield accessory: official part number KXA00102.
• Designed for the Meteor 350: confirmed for the Meteor 350cc MY20-onward platform.
• Pillion lumbar support: designed to support the passenger's lower-back area.
• Brown finish: intended to coordinate with Royal Enfield's brown Meteor 350 seat options.
• Seat-matched construction: Royal Enfield describes the pad as being constructed in the same manner as the seats themselves.
• Factory-integrated appearance: shaped for the genuine Meteor 350 passenger backrest structure.
• Simple pad fitment: Royal Enfield lists an indicative fitting time of 10 minutes when the correct backrest structure and hardware are available.
• Three-year accessory warranty: manufacturer-listed period, subject to applicable Royal Enfield terms.

Confirmed Compatibility

The pad is compatible with Meteor 350 trim families such as Fireball, Stellar and Supernova when the motorcycle is from the confirmed MY20-onward platform and has the correct Royal Enfield backrest mount installed.

Required Mounting Structure — Sold Separately

This pad requires the genuine Meteor 350 passenger backrest mounting structure. Royal Enfield documentation associates KXA00102 with two mount-kit references used across different production or market listings:

• KXA00086: the original Black Passenger Backrest Mounts reference shown with KXA00102 in the India product page and official combined fitting instruction.
• KXA00625: the later/current Black Passenger Backrest Mounts reference shown with KXA00102 by Royal Enfield in newer market listings.

Confirm the exact mount-kit SKU available for the motorcycle before ordering. The required structure must provide the correct left and right backrest arms, rear backplate and four pad-fixing positions. Do not drill the pad, modify the stock grab rails or attempt a universal clamp installation.

Fitment Note / Return Prevention

Before checkout, verify all five points: KXA00102, brown colour, passenger backrest pad, Meteor 350 MY20 onward, and compatible backrest mounts already installed or ordered separately.

• This is not a complete backrest assembly.
• The left and right backrest arms are not included.
• The rear decorative/structural backplate is not included.
• The complete mount hardware is not included with this pad listing.
• The black pad is the separate KXA00088 part number.
• This pad is not listed for the Hunter 350, Classic 350, Bullet 350, Super Meteor 650, Shotgun 650 or 650 Twins.

Do not purchase KXA00102 solely because the motorcycle already has a generic or aftermarket backrest. Match the genuine mount-kit reference and the four fixing points. If the existing backrest does not use the Royal Enfield KXA00086/KXA00625-type structure, fitment is not confirmed.

Returns: make a clear, continuous unboxing video within 24 hours of delivery. Show the sealed parcel, shipping label, complete opening process, part-number label, product colour, front and rear surfaces and any visible concern. Installed, compressed, marked, modified, soiled or damaged pads may not qualify for return. Keep every label and piece of original packaging until the SKU, colour and mounting compatibility have been checked.

Technical Details

Installation Note

Royal Enfield lists a 10-minute fitting time for the pad. The following pad-installation stage assumes that the correct Meteor 350 passenger backrest arms are installed and that the backplate and four specified pad fixings from the separate mount kit are available.

1. Support the motorcycle securely on a level surface.
2. Position the brown pad with its cushioned support surface facing forward, towards the passenger.
3. Align the pad with the four mounting bosses on the left and right backrest arms.
4. Position the mount kit's backplate at the rear of the pad and align all four fixing holes.
5. Loosely install the four M8 × 25 mm button-head fixings supplied with the mount structure.
6. Centre the pad carefully relative to the motorcycle and confirm that it sits evenly.
7. Tighten the four pad fixings evenly to 12 Nm using a calibrated torque wrench.
8. Check that the pad and backplate are secure, centred and free from movement before carrying a passenger.

When the complete KXA00086-type backrest mount is being installed at the same time, the official instruction reuses the original front grab-rail fasteners, uses the mount kit's longer rear fasteners and specifies 25 Nm for the mount-to-motorcycle fixings. Installation should be completed by an authorised Royal Enfield workshop if the correct mount version, hardware or torque procedure is uncertain.

20. What should I verify before fitting?

Verify KXA00102, the brown colour, Meteor 350 MY20-onward fitment, the mount-kit SKU, all four pad mounting points and the required hardware. Record the unboxing video before installation.

Why the Mount Dependency Matters

The cushioned pad is not a load-bearing motorcycle bracket. Passenger movement and acceleration loads must pass through Royal Enfield's properly installed backrest arms and the motorcycle's specified frame mounting points. Using improvised brackets or unmatched holes can damage the pad and may create an unsafe condition.

Ordering the pad and mount as separate components lets the buyer choose black or brown upholstery while retaining the same compatible support structure. It also means the pad listing should never be mistaken for the complete backrest assembly.

Care Guidance

Clean the brown pad using a soft damp cloth and a mild cleaner suitable for motorcycle seating surfaces. Do not use petroleum solvents, aggressive degreasers, abrasive brushes or high-pressure water at the seams. Wipe away dust before rubbing the surface and allow the pad to dry naturally.

During routine maintenance, check that the pad is centred and that all four fixings remain secure. Do not use the backrest as a lifting or tie-down point, and do not hang luggage from the cushion or its backplate unless a separate Royal Enfield accessory specifically permits it.
