BMW G310 R is available in India at a price of Rs 2.99 lakh ex-showroom, besides this fact, most of us already knew exactly how the BMW G310 R is like. Almost every other publication in Britain, USA and Canada already gave us their analysis of the bike, almost a year ago.

It is rather being greeted with skepticism and biased critical evaluation.
Both bikes, as of today, represents the pinnacle of Indian build quality because of all the international praise, they have gathered over the years. With its official price release, it is much more clear now that the main opponent of BMW G310 R is KTM Duke 390.

BMW has taken the crucial decision of coming into the sub 500cc motor class by undergoing joint venture with TVS Motors India.
