Here is how the newly unveiled TVS Petronas Racing RR310 differs from the stock bike
TVS has announced its partnership with Malaysian oil and gas company Petronas, rebranding the TVS Racing team as Petronas TVS Racing. The race bikes get flashy new liveries, and here is how the TVS Apache RR310 One Make Championship (OMC) Race Bike, in particular, compares with the stock Apache RR310 BTO in pictures.
Largely, the OMC race-spec RR310 retains the same overall body design as the stock bike. However, it does get revised styling elements which make it more track friendly. The first thing that you would notice is the Petronas TVS Racing livery consisting of blue, teal, white, red and black colours. The livery is properly sporty and elegant with the teal and blue shades flowing from the front to the back of the bike, making us wish that it was made available on the stock bike.
The bike gets a new custom fairing, of course different from the stock one, which is likely a little lighter, and more aerodynamic. The front of the race bike misses out on the LED headlight setup (for safety considering it’s a track bike) but retains the same sharp design. For weight reduction, the digital console has been removed, which means no screens or fancy smartphone-connected features. Adding on to what's different is a more committed clip-on handlebar, along with the footpegs.
Propelling the stock RR310 is a 312.2cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 34PS and 27.3Nm, mated to a six-speed gearbox. While the output figures for the race bike haven’t been mentioned, the new cams, modified valve train, ECU and new exhaust setup should make the race-spec RR310 churn out a good deal more power than the stock bike.
The BTO stock bike is suspended on a fully adjustable KYB USD fork up front and a rebound adjustable monoshock at the rear. However, this is tuned differently with springs and changed fluids for the race-spec RR310, making it more suitable for the track. The braking setup on the race-spec bike is more or less the same with no real change, handled by discs on both ends with dual-channel ABS. The race-spec RR310 also gets better brake pads to handle the track abuse and doesn’t get ABS.
And finally, the race-spec RR310 rolls on TVS Protorq tyres instead of the Michelin Road 5 tyres on the stock bike.

- Super Bike in 310 segmentTVS Apache RR 310 is a fantastic bike for city and highway both. I have used it for 2 years and the performance is superb. The riding posture is sporty but not too aggressive for daily use. Mileage is around 28-30 kmpl in city and 35 on highway which is good for a 310cc. TVS service cost is reasonable compared to KTM or BMW. Parts are easily available in Pune. Features like glide through technology, ride modes and digital console are very useful. Only issue is pillion seat is not comfortable for long rides. Overall build quality and handling is excellent. Highly recommended for beginners who want a sports bike feel. Best bike in this segment under 3 lakhs.Read More3 2
