    TVS tends to arrive at these figures with heavier than average riders. This could just be a tactic to make promises they can keep (instead of advertising quick numbers only to be discovered later as "false" by disappointed buyers).

    Being a short stroke engine, the performance is great throughout the rev range, but it comes with the caveat that performance drops rapidly as you increase the weight/load or ride uphill (like a heavy built rider, or extra luggage). The opposite is true for the long stroke (under square) engines typically seen in bobbers and cruisers such as the REs that are not designed to go fast. Because of the huge torque, here is no significant drop in performance when you add unreasonable amount of weight to the motorcycle or when you're riding in a steep uphill incline.

    TVS Apache 310 Review - New Title Contender in the Middle Weight segment?
    https://www.rushlane.com/tvs-apache-310-review-12258413.html
    We took a test ride of the new TVS Apache 310 at the Madras Motor Race Track. Here is what we think of the BMW engineered Indian motorcycle.

    Good review with factual conclusions.

    With these RR 310 motorcycles, the sales are going to be low because it is in the premium segment. It is difficult to guess RR 310 - specific capacity, but I would safely assume anywhere between 10,000 to 20,000 per annum would be a safe bet. Anything more than 20K per annum sales would be a windfall for TVS especially given the fact that in this segment, volumes cannot be expected - at least in India where most people cannot afford a 2.25 L ($3500) motorcycle.
    Agreed!!! This is not a volume segment. I see hardly 20k KTM’s moving per monthly average.

    My concern was whether TVS will be able to produce at least 10K a month. I wasn’t sure of their plants and their capacity. Also they need to produce more numbers of BMW’s too. Maybe roughly 25 to 35k combined per month. No??

    These need more time and better components to produce each unit. So, wanted to check on these, so could guesstimate delivery times [emoji7]

    This will be the future 150 segment. I think they have to ramp up their factories and business models accordingly. Not just TVS. Everyone.

    Gearbox : 55kmph@6th gear without knocking, possible!
    Head dissipation : Engine runs normal, not much heating.
    Brakes : Epic bite but average feel on the front, very good rear feedback and bite. ABS doesn't intrude at all like the RC. Front brake feel on the R3 still remains my fav.
    Engine : Eager to rev! It's again not as smooth as R3 but way smoother than the RC.
    My fav gears are the 3rd and 4th gears! The pull is hilariously good! From 30 to 106 and 41 to 129 is fun! 5th and 6th, I could only use once while trying to make the engine knock!
    Seats : Very good padding! If you've ever sat on the RTR200 you'll know what I'm talking about.

    Overall : New champion in that segment. The bike looks like a 600cc, thrills of a RC and comfortable as a R3



    The bike needs service every 10000kms afaik! The spares aren't as cheap as the RTRs but not expensive either. You can see the bmw logo on most of parts.

    Rear seat i did not try out. But, it's so small only a class 5 student can sit by the looks of it. Though it is soft.

    Going by the media review, I think it is possible to charge a bit premium for the spares.
