After a long teaser campaign, BMW has launched its entry-level sport bike, G 310 RR, for a price tag starting from Rs. 2.85 lakhs (ex-showroom).

There are 2 variants on offer – base variant with Black Storm Metallic shade and Style Sport with Light White UNI, Racing Blue Metallic, and Racing Red UNI shade.

The base variant commands a premium of Rs. 20,000/- over the naked G 310 R, and its cousin TVS Apache RR 310. The Style Sport price is Rs. 2.99 lakhs (ex-showroom) and it commands a premium of Rs. 14,000/- over the base variant.

The G 310 RR is essentially the rebadged TVS Apache RR 310 with some minor tweaks here and there. The aerodynamic design is optimised by the full fairing, intelligent dimensions as well as lighter materials that work together to offer agile and precise handling.

Thanks to the Ram Air intake, the oncoming air flow is ideally used, and the gill vents ensure that the hot air is channelled away from the engine. The bike has an aggressive and sharp face with full-led headlights, large transparent visor, and pure-black handlebars.

The entire fly line is front-wheel oriented. The dynamic front, tank-hugging seating position and a pulled-up short rear visually underline closeness to the racetrack.

The console looks exactly similar to that of the Apache RR 310’s unit. Even the bezel’s carbon-fibre-like texture and the tell-tale lights have been retained from the existing unit. But, it shows BMW’s logo, brand name, and tag line: Make Life A Ride at the startup screen.

The G 310 RR shares its powertrain with the Apache RR 310. The water-cooled single-cylinder 312 cc engine churns out 33.5 HP at 9700 RPM and 27.3 Nm at 7700 RPM. The motorcycle accelerates to 60 km/hr in 2.9 seconds with a claimed top speed of 160 km/hr.

The 6-speed gearbox is coupled to a race tuned anti-hopping clutch with self-reinforcement that reduces engine braking and significantly increases riding safety. It also offers reduced operating force at clutch lever.

There are 4 ride modes on offer – Track, Urban, Rain, and Sport. The Track mode is focussed from acceleration to braking where the ABS is adjusted for late braking into bends.

Urban mode has balanced acceleration and braking behaviour as the ABS and throttle response are geared towards urban traffic. Sport mode delivers best possible acceleration and maximum deceleration values.

Rain mode is paired with Ride by Wire and the ABS reacts highly sensitively to guarantee riding safety and stability control on wet roads.

Ride by Wire system along with E-Gas passes on the commands directly from a sensor on the twist grip to the engine control system resulting in even finer control and throttle response.

Thanks to the electromotive throttle controller, automatic idle speed increase is possible when starting to prevent a possible sudden stall of the engine.

The suspension has a torsionally stiff, highly robust tubular steel frame in grid structure with bolt-on rear frame.

The front wheel suspension is taken care of by a solid upside-down fork while at the rear there is an aluminium swinging arm in conjunction with a directly mounted spring strut.

The suspension geometry is designed for easy handling, stability and a neutral cornering response, which makes for an active riding character and maximum riding fun.

The new multifunctional 5-inch TFT display boasts of a very good level of functionality that is synonymous with high-speed riding. Its intuitive framework, high-resolution and clear graphics provide all required information to the rider in an easy-to-understand format.

It shows essentials like riding statistics, riding modes, maximum speed, deceleration, temperature, etc.

The Infotainment Control Switch offers perfect operability of functions to change the desired modes or views. Depending on the riding mode, the TFT display also customises the screen with relevant information.

The high-performance brake system with 2-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) ensures efficient deceleration and short braking distances.

The BMW G 310 RR competes with the likes of the recently launched 2022 KTM RC 390, 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 300, and the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650. The lower price tag than its rivals coupled with the BMW badge is enough to seal the deal.

Customers can book the bike at all BMW Motorrad dealerships. Deliveries will be done on a first-come-first-served basis, the company said in a statement. Buyers can also visit www.bmwmotorradg310rr.com for booking.

For ease of ownership, BMW India Financial Services is offering a complete package that includes zero down payment, low monthly payments starting at Rs. 3999/-, and the option to fund insurance and accessories.

BMW Motorrad bikes come with a standard warranty for 3 years, unlimited kilometres. The warranty can also be extended to fourth and fifth year. Road-Side Assistance, a 24×7 365 days package further ensures prompt services in case of breakdown and towing situations.
