Doesnt sound or look any better than a D390.

Damn, we can now own a BMW motorcycle. A BMW!

P.S. I know there's S1000RR and all, but you know what I mean.

For people who would do a lot of stunts , they can easily take and Mod it.

Damn that a BMW.....A BMW...Dont think i cna sleep tonight.

A BMW bike at a reasonable price.

BMW BMW BMW

I dreamed of buying a BMW car when I was in school. Then I lost interest in cars. so I am getting this....
not a big fan of Naked bikes... but its a BMW

ok, let the comparisons with KTM and discussions proceed...

haha

well one for thing, its a BMW! Its better than the KTM muhahaha!

TVS gets an insight into how to develop top-notch vehicles, and it is going apply some learning to use in upcoming Apache 200. Not only that, a nexus with BMW would increase its credibility multi-folds.
You can take it as gospel that BMW would never compromise on quality, it'll only be using TVS manufacturing facilities. And since it is a tech sharing agreement with no stakes involved, there is all the more reason to believe that G310 would be an exemplary product just like other BMWs.

Apache 200 would compete against Duke 200 and G310 would compete against Duke 390 and would definitely be priced higher than 390. Although, considerably less than TNT 300/Z250. From mechanicals to cosmetics, you can expect everything to be better than KTM.
And if gets launched at under 2 lacs ex-showroom as you said, let me know whenever you're in Bangalore, beer's on me

All in all, production of the new BMW G 310 R is subject to the same quality criteria that apply to production at the BMW Motorrad plant in Berlin-Spandau.
Also, you can try to be a bit polite while replying to other fellow-xbhp family members even when they're wrong. It's a forum to enhance each other's knowledge and not a competition to declare your superiority. Not that you care, but please don't spoil the discussion with contempt or derision. I have seen it earlier as well. We all are bikers, bikers are brothers. Let the brotherhood prevail. Cheers

My opinion, it does look way better than D390 for sure.

I am sure the G310R will sound much better than the Dukes which sound like Fartcannons.

No don't think so, at least from the video it looks like it's not much different. TVS would have to supply it with a special exhaust to make it sound different.

I am sure the G310R will sound much better than the Dukes which sound like Fartcannons.

If you remove the exhaust barrel from the G310R, it too will sound like a "Fartcannon"

Why should one remove the exhaust barrel from a perfectly sounding bike to make it sound like a fartcannon/Duke ?

Try to read your own comment. Any bike without an exhaust barrel will sound like a fartcannon hence dont compare the exhaust notes of the 2 bikes. Logic

The Duke twins (and RC twins) have an underbelly exhaust for a reason, if it hasnt become apparent to you, maybe you should educate yourself on it.

The underbelly exhaust is for mass centralization ... got nothing to do with how they sound. How the gases choke, how they expand, how they flow and the resonance is what determines the exhaust note.
