Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which bike is better from Appachi RR 310 and Appachi RTr 310
  • Both the TVS Apache RR 310 and the TVS Apache RTR 310 are powered by a 312.2cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, paired with a 6-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch for smoother shifts. The Apache RR 310 features a fully-faired aerodynamic design, dual-channel ABS, trellis frame, offering excellent stability at higher speeds. In comparison, the Apache RTR 310 carries a streetfighter design with sharp, muscular styling, adjustable levers, ride modes, a TFT instrument cluster with connectivity features, and the same high-performance braking and suspension setup. While the RR 310 emphasizes sporty touring and track performance, the RTR 310 balances everyday practicality with premium features and agile handling.
Q. Which is better between KTM RC 390 and TVS RR 310?
  • Rc
  • Apache rtr 310 cc
  • Both the bikes are good in their own forte. If you're looking for a light, powerful, sharp-handling sportbike that'll help you hone your skills, the KTM RC 390 makes perfect sense. However, the bike's committed riding posture means it's more suited for track than a road. And in that case, you could consider the TVS Apache RR 310 which has been significantly improved post its BS6 update. On the other hand, TVS has done an incredible job in ironing out the sore spots of the Apache RR 310 with the BS6 update. It is loaded with tech, making it the most technologically advanced motorcycle in its class. The new prices are quite close to its fiercest rival -- the KTM RC 390. While it may lack the outright performance of the RC 390, the Apache RR 310 BS6 makes up for it by being a well-rounded machine that can do daily duties as well as corner carving or even touring, for that matter. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.Read more -TVS Apache RR 310 BTO Review: Tailored To Your Needs.
Q. I am confused between RR 310 and Meteor 350. I know both are entirely different ride - style. My requirement is fuel range, ergonomics for long travel and power. Please advise.
  • Thanks Zigwheels :)
  • As per your requirements, you may go for TVS Apache RR 310. The TVS Apache RR 310 has always been a fairly quick motorcycle. Quicker than its Bavarian counterparts and almost as quick as the Austrians. The beauty of the RR has always been its great balance of everyday rideability, performance and handling prowess. At 100kmph in 6th gear, with the RR’s motor ticking away at 6000rpm, you can feel almost no vibes. It’s not a butter-smooth motor by any means, but you can easily sit at that speed all day long. Do take a test ride for better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
