It’s been seven years since the TVS RR 310, the marque’s first product based on the 310cc platform co-developed with BMW Motorrad, was launched. In fact, the first motorcycle based on this platform, the BMW G 310 R was unveiled in 2015! The TVS RTR 310 is the latest motorcycle based on this platform and it brings with it a few upgrades. It left a positive impression on us when we briefly rode it in Thailand, on both road and track. However, it did leave a few questions unanswered so we decided to spend more time with it here in India.

The RTR 310 looks properly modern with its wide dual headlamp housed in a rather large housing. It does remind you of the Ducati Streetfighter, a great motorcycle to borrow inspiration from, so no complaints there. Also likeable are the goldfinished 41mm USD forks that look chunky and add more muscle to the design. At the side, the exposed trellis frame finished in white looks appealing and the engine cowl and radiator surrounds give the naked streetfighter a distinct touch. The sleek rear end further enhances the RTR 310’s streetfighter stance. An underbelly exhaust, we feel, would have given the motorcycle a cleaner look, though.
