Q. Is there any heating issue in the slow traffic. I have heard that in slow traffic engine gets exhausted and rider need to rest back so as to let the engine cool in BMW G 310 R. Is it true - G 310 R?

Well, the bike has just recently launched so it would be hard to give any verdict on its heating issue. But, now the bike gets GTT (Glide Through Traffic) which works like a torque-assist allowing the bike to amble around at slow speed by just modulating the clutch. So if you are traveling in traffic this feature might reduce the load on the engine thus saves it from getting heated.

Yes, this is true. It gets heated a lot, the default RPM set on the bike is high, in slow-moving traffic engine revs a lot. The engine is rough and feels stressed at times and ventilation is not at par, the exhaust note is also not soothing, the gear shifts are very hard and this is a deal-breaker. Vibrations are present on the bike, service network is limited in India. You do not feel confident at high speeds. The bike looks good, grabs attention, suspension are good, seat-height is good for short riders also is comfortable to sit, LED headlight is quite bright and gives good visibility at night, breaks are decent. Overall avoid buying this bike, It just looks good and there are lot of problems in this bike.

I have owned this bike (310 gs )for about 11 months now. In the span of these 11 months i have replaced the battery once and faced heating issue almost every time i ride it in traffic.I have to think twice before riding it in city. Once the bike temperature is above 100 C ,the bike stops . You have to wait till the temperature gets around(50-65) to start the bike again. Avoid buying this bike at all costs.
