Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives

BMW G 310 R

  • Looks muscular and has attractive colour schemes.\r\nSublime handling doesn’t come at the cost of harsh ride quality.\r\nMotor feels energetic but with less vibrations now.

KTM Duke 390

  • Improved performance means this is the quickest bike in its segment
  • brakes feel sharp and predictable
  • adjustable suspension handles bad road well even in its stock setting
  • lower seat height should make it more accessible to shorter riders
  • feels super light on its feet and agile when changing directions
  • you can barely feel any engine heat
  • even in bumper to bumper traffic and motor has become a lot smoother than before.

BMW G 310 R

  • The LCD console feels dated and out of place on such a premium bike.\r\nLimited dealership network.\r\nService costs are still on the higher side.

KTM Duke 390

  • Some of the panel gaps are a little too pronounced
  • H-rated Metzeler tyres feel a little squiggly when pushing the bike hard and the signature KTM orange colour option looks too garish in this model.

Q. Is BMW G 310 R suitable for tall guys above 6ft if not any suggestions - G 310 R - G 310 R?
  • BMW G 310 R offers a comfortable riding posture with wide handlebars, requiring a slight lean towards them. However, the high set foot pegs put the rider in a very knees-up position, leading to a cramped lowed body posture. Such seating position restricts the riders to go on a long distance journey. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.

Q. I'm now presently stuck on BMW G310R and Honda CB300R. I like the naked bikes and style and I want to know which one of these are smooth with gear shift, less sound, and which is more suitable for both city use and touring too?
  • Currently, the Honda CB300R is not available for sale in the market and is yet to get a BS6 update.

It is a delight to ride in the twisties with enough power on tap to thrill you. It is also more affordable now, which bodes well for its positioning in the market. 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.
