An in-depth analysis of how much you’ll be paying for what essentially could be a rebadged TVS Apache RR 310
(UPDATE: BMW has launched the G 310 RR in India. Full details in our launch story)
Last week, BMW Motorrad India teased a new motorcycle that’s slated to debut on July 15. While details about the two-wheeler are few, the teaser image made it clear that it will be based on the TVS Apache RR 310. This will now be the third BMW-branded motorcycle based on the G 310 platform, which underpins the G 310 R and the G 310 GS. So, how will the Bavarian giant price its first small-capacity supersport?
The upcoming BMW G 310 RR could slot in-between the G 310 R (Rs 2.65 lakh) and G 310 GS (Rs 3.05 lakh) (all prices ex-showroom Delhi). For reference, the standard TVS Apache RR 310 costs Rs 2.65 lakh and the BMW-badged supersport might come at Rs 2.85 lakh. Will the German marque charge a Rs 20,000 premium just for its premium badge?

That’s unlikely to be the case. BMW Motorrad might throw-in the fully adjustable suspension from TVS’ ‘Dynamic’ package and the sporty clip-ons and rear-set footpegs from the ‘Race’ package from the RR 310’s Built-To-Order (BTO) programme as part of the standard equipment.
We can also expect BMW to give its own spin to the RR 310’s design with a few aesthetic changes which could include new headlights inspired by the BMW S 1000 RR. Furthermore, the German marque will drape the G 310 RR in the iconic Red, Blue and Violet tricolour.
The BMW G 310 RR may seem an expensive proposition considering that the TVS Apache RR 310 is available with a cheaper price tag. However, the Indian market will not be the biggest target for the German giant. Instead, the BMW G 310 RR’s main rival would be the KTM RC 390 which features a comprehensive electronic suite, in foreign markets.
But even with the Rs 2.85 lakh price tag, the BMW G 310 RR will be more affordable than the 2022 KTM RC 390 and the Kawasaki Ninja 300.

I've been riding the BMW G 310 RR for several months now and its a bike that definitely makes a statement If you are looking for a machine that balances daily usability with that big bike.

Its perfect for navigating city traffic and handles beautifully on twisty roads. While there are some vibrations once you cross 7000. Overall its niceRead More
