Re: BMW G 310 R and G 310 GS bookings to open from 8 June 2018
Not actually, He compared it to a CRF 250 which is little unfair considering it is a fully dirt bike. He complains about a lot of little things but forgets it is a small 300c single which is targetted mainly for urban and occasional soft offroading.Originally posted by manimaaran View PostTrashed the bike as politely as he could. He was happier on the 390. Priced at 3-4L?? I feel like BMW is gonna regret on this one.

Yeah, I'm just saying because its a similar powered machine plus it's made in india [emoji4] he had some praises for that in his review. Yes, it's more of a soft roader than off roader the comparison wasn't entirely fair. The engine seems to be a bit gruff it felt strained though.Originally posted by sparky View PostNot actually, He compared it to a CRF 250 which is little unfair considering it is a fully dirt bike.

The thing is, that bike has none to very little market in his country. 300cc single is barely a big deal over there, over here it IS. He compared the GS with teh CRF and X300 which are in the same category but different price points. Obviously CRF is exclusive for dirt riding but thats the aspect he focused on while giving an impression on the GS.Originally posted by sparky View Posttargetted mainly for urban and occasional soft offroading.For My Gixxer Related videos: Click HERE

But he did talk about the infamous vibrations (as in RR310) plus how buzzy the bike gets post 7k rpm (because it’s a single)
He did talk about he is was not able to corner because of the softer suspension and he is not able even to stand on the foot pegs.
Though I have booked the twins but I think I am gonna sit this one out. I am not gonna buy the bmw badge just for the sake of it. I hope test drive of the GS could change my perception otherwise.

Same here. Booked the GS 310 but I am going to wait for the on road price to make my decision.Originally posted by drive_angry View PostBut he did talk about the infamous vibrations (as in RR310) plus how buzzy the bike gets post 7k rpm (because it’s a single)

3.5 on road seems fine but anything more will be a deal breaker and from what I am reading on the net, it may very well cost close to 4 on road. I really really hope that ain't the case here.
On a side note, I doubt one can escape from paying the cost of the BMW badge. How much is one willing to pay is going to be the question.

Well my dude, I think it wont be a waste of money if it was Duke 690!Originally posted by ishaikhi View PostAnything above 3.5 for a single cylinder is waste of money.For My Gixxer Related videos: Click HERE
