[@sng_flawless1929]

At 8:12 , as Shumi mentioned , I would like to recall the service experience of my friend's Apache RR310 - 1. The Bed-Bolt (Engine mounting screws ) broke apart and the engine was loosely moving around 2. Went for servicing and they kept the bike for around 15 days with themselves with no updates 3. Finally , frustrated as he went to the service centre for update , they were like they didn't have the bed bolts in stock 4. He seldom went to another TVS centre, didn't get them , went to local hardware shop and got them himself and then they fixed the bike All this was happening in Bangalore's biggest TVS showroom and dealership , there is serious parts unavailability and zero feedback from servicing employees . Please consider this issue of servicing with TVS bikes carefully

[@vikramwadhwani6174]

Just curious. How many kilometres has your friend's bike run? Because bolts like these are NOT supposed to just break...not for a long long time at least.

[@tev596]

Even small things such as clutch switches, brake pads, and chain sprockets are unavailable most of the time. At this point, I don't recommend TVS just because of the service experience.

[@vikramwadhwani6174]

@@tev596 this is crazy. And yet, some of their products are actually very very good 😞😞😞 only to be let down by abysmal service and parts unavailability...

[@Yash_Motkar]

@@sng_flawless1929 Here’s one more worst experience of mine- I wanted to top-up the coolant in my bike and they asked me if i brought up coolant with me ? as they don’t have it in stock. wait for a week we’ll order it and then we’ll call you! ( and they never called me) So i have to fix things by myself and see it as an opportunity to learn. (One more thing is if we face any gear issues, quick shifter issues in RTR/RR310 then we need to ensure that their must be 21 degrees of 📐 angle between foot peck and the gear shifter.

[@hamzahghufran]

I can vouch for the parts unavailability in tvs showrooms... As a rtr 160 owner , ( which is selling like hotcakes) you would expect them to have certain bolts , fairings available... but it took my dealership 3 weeks to source a single bolt... and engine cowl... that also of wrong color.. Also one day literally everyone was just suddenly replaced , and I mean EVERYONE!!😂 I've decided to service it on my own or at local shop... better control and no long headaches

[@TheVanillaMotorcyclist]

You people had to break some poor tvs executive hearts in the morning. Jokes apart, the way you guys shoot the videos of Shumi riding any motorcycle makes them look so cool and awesome it's amazing. Hell you guys made w175 look cooler than kawasaki managed to do.

[@thefastelephant94]

I test rode this. I've never given TVS a chance. Not my taste hence. Otherwise what they do in all types of products is really nice and have my appreciation. But the closer I got to this bike, in a weird way I liked the way it looks the more I spent time around. The handling is on point but the feel lacks premium feel. The motor performs well but the buzz is not something I can set aside. The D390 most definitely is alot of bike for the money IMO. And its a better choice. What a time to own motorcycles, competition has made for some kickass motorcycles to choose from.

[@motorinc]

Indeed @thefastelephant94! Indeed.

[@Yash_Motkar]

Shumi sir I own RTR310 , The cruise control works fine and doesn’t needs to interact with clutch/break to activate … U just need to press the cruise button that’s it… ❤ I will suggest you to ride it again to rethink about cruise control.

[@motorinc]

Thanks for letting us know @Yash_Motkar

[@Dkm337]

Its the UI messaging that causes this conversation. frankly i had the same reaction when in engaged Cruise i am like why am i supposed to enable by pressing brake or clutch where it supposed to disengage. then i tested with vehicle off key ON and engine ON but no gears pressed yet or brake pressed, pressed CC on Cruise control Standby speed label in display didnot came. then after i pressed clutch but not geared yet, then CC standby speed is being displayed with 0. then in this stage if you go with first gear, at 4200 rpm you can press SET and CC will start to function from first gear. all they way upto 4th gear 45kmph. then its 5th gear and 50kmph. its a UI thing of RTR. enjoy these Niggles.

[@SudOak]

RTR 200 owner here whose friend has a Top Spec Sepang Blue RTR 310. The one in the DP is the first top spec in Maharashtra (I'm not bragging). I still remember throwing shade at the engine and the teasers when TVS was about to launch this motorcycle and my friend was baffled by the teasers. They announced cruise control and QS which was welcomed accompanied by absolutely unnecessary hot garbage tech. Heated and cooled seats, Wheelie and stoppie control etc. After a lot of me saying no and him saying take my money already he got the bike. I took it for a ride to Malshej from Pune and also city spins. This is my honest impression. My benchmark here is the RTR 200 and the recent 300-400's. So the duke, Speed, Guerilla etc 1. Engine: Yes they have bumped the power up but the amount of vibes is crazy. I cant deal with these vibes for 1000km days and stuff. The heat is manageable as well, Doesn't heat up unless you are in chock-a-block traffic. 2. Seats: The seats are bad. Not decent, not okay. Just BAD. The Peltier effect seats make no sense for Indian conditions. You feel the change in temp for 5 mins at max and the plates are not padded well, and they cannot be padded. You feel the plates right on your sit bones. BTW TVS makes great seats, all products. But this is a no no. 3. Modes: With what Shumi has said, Sport mode is the mode to use 90% of the time, On the highway I felt Urban was much better as it had a lot of torque on tap but no top end. It has a limiter at 7-8k RPM if I remember correctly. For some reason I felt Sport was rather mellow with even power delivery across the powerband. 4. Fueling: Could've been much better. Engine braking kicks in a second later, Off-on throttle in bottom RPM's feels jerky, and a lot of torque hits all of a sudde. ( Can be a skill issue also) but the RR310 doesn't have similar issues. 5. Tech: Quickshifter is indeed best in class, flawless. TC kicked in once when I was on concrete at quite low speeds and the torque kicked in all of a sudden. ABS tune is also good. No complaints. Cruise control is a good addition and trying it out for the first time on a motorcycle was a different experience. No complaints here as well. 6. Brakes Tyres Suspension: Tyres- Couldn't be better, Brakes - Great, Suspension - Little stiff for my liking. I weigh 73kgs at 5'8 and even with the softest setting it was stiff for my liking and experience. 7. Service: It had a lot of bugs with the new tech and the bike went to the SVC every month, Weren't always fixed. Parts were replaced and the mechanics aren't trained to handle or fix the bugs/tech in general on this new machine. The tech did bug where on a few days the CC wouldn't work, TC would give error and stuff like that. 8. Colours: Sepang Blue looks beautiful. Eye catcher on the street 9. Fuel: The tank is 11L with 9L usable, for a Long distance rider with one motorcycle garage which will do everything from track to tours. It will never be enough. 10. Price: Last Jan it was 3.8L On-Road (Top Spec). Worth it? Simple Answer - NO. Reason - Being a TVS owner and being associated with the community and having friends who ride similar motorcycles, the 200s, 160s, Ronin's even the mopeds are such great products. The comfort, power and fit and finish is just that great. But, the RTR 310 did disappoint considering this is not the first motorcycle out of TVS's stable. They know how to do it right, but as Shumi had said on some podcast which I don't remember, TVS changing their management, bringing in these guys from the International Markets and the Contracts that TVS is under with BMW. Their is limited scope on what can be done. This is just an user experience and the review says it all. Excellent video!

I own an rtr310 with dynamic pro kit and completed 14k kms. I felt like vibration is the only drawback of this bike. Not pricing except BTO variants. And the features it offers are good except heating&cooling seat. But benefits of 6 axis IMU is not a gimmick. And the beauty of this bike is dependent.its subjective.

​@motorinc why not? Can you please let us know. I was hoping that after the adv, rr and rtr would get the new engine, and maybe the prices would come down as it's an in-house engine. Is it not what it was made for?

[@shivamgupta-vg4co]

I have the RTR 200 4V Fi 2021 Race Blue variant (mouth full ik!), I love the design of RTR 310. Especially the Sepang Blue color variant (I kid you not, I love it). I know that there are better options than this in the same price range in terms of performance. But as Kartik and Shumi said, a bike isn't about specification, after a year or two the bhp will just be a number, it's what you feel about the bike.

Man i bought Vitpilen 250 for myself and i am so happy by choosing that bike over KTM 250 because the recognition it gets on the road is something else and the power is just amazing. Also as shumi said engine heating yes every bike with higher CC engine does heat but after sometime you will get habitual with it. Also I wanted to have continental for myself but didn't have the budget to buy the bike but now i have Vitpilen for myself i am so proud of myself for choosing it over any other bike

[@RajKumar-em4yy]

As the owner of the top BTO model with all packages and using for an year, I can assure you, That heated/cooled seat is not just useless but a problem actually. 1st the cooling effect will turn to irritation after few minutes. 2nd you cannot turn it on or off on the fly, you need to stop the bike. 3rd you can feel the plastic cooling setup on the seat, there is no cushion at all, it will be a pain in the *** literally. I considered buying the normal variant seat and settled aftermarket cushion on top. Adjustable suspension is good, you can adjust as per the road you travel. Sound is not disturbing for me after wearing helmet. High speed stability is very good, ran in potholes in highways at 100+ speeds many times and never felt losing control. Ride modes - Only sport. others are useless for normal rider. Gear change indicator red light in Urban and Rain mode is distracting. I dont want to use Race and Supermoto. Not safe for public roads. TVS Connect - useless Mileage - I ride 70% highways and rest on Bangalore city traffic. I get 28 to 30 depending on how aggressive I ride. Offroading is good for a bike not made for offroading, rode thru pretty bad conditions. Dynamic kit with Adjustable suspension and Tyre pressure monitoring system is worth the money if you are interested. Dont opt for the Dynamic pro kit. This is my very 1st bike. All the safety features really safe guarded me throughout my learning journey and for that I'm grateful.

Btw, This transformation of Motorinc in the last three months is welcome. The inclusion of a bit splashy and funky narrative is apt. However, Let's not get too excited and make it too funky - That might increase the view count but not the opulence with which Motorinc is crafted until now.

[@motorinc]

Thanks for the cautious compliments @KaushikS-gm9pi! Your feedback is duly noted too. 😅

[@adwaitmathkari]

I own one from the lsat 10 months, and here's my feedback as well: Yes the accleration and the performance are amazing! The grip, the riding stance all great! The quick shifter is great! Sound - its too loud. I gave this feedback in a TVS camp and what their team mentioned is that its great to have this sound isnt it? - not really. Colour scheme - Man I am thinking of redoing the whole thing, removing the coulour red altogether or removing silver altoghther. Too many colours really. The g310R designed with just black and white looks so much better. Rest many of the things point on - about the riding modes being useless, TVS service being terrible. Overall I'd say I like the bike, its not bad as the PROS are in the areas which are more important than the cons!

[@motorinc]

Thanks for sharing @adwaitmathkari, what do you think of the service otherwise? And what made you go for this in the first place?

[@adwaitmathkari]

​@@motorinc Thanks for your response! The service is quite a pain as there is only one official service centre in Pune city which is far away. There is no pickup and drop service. Further the experience there is like you have to wait atleast 2 hours before getting someone to attend to you as they are servicing all the other tvs bikes and scooters at the same place. Then you drop the bike and come back the next day or in 2 days again. For insurance they ask you to leave the bike with them until the part that was ordered arrives for me they were asking to leave the vehicle with them for about 20 days - unacceptable. As about the second question, I researched a lot of options like the speed 400, scrambler 400, duke 390, himalayan, the main points that were pros for this one were - - I wanted something that handles very well in the city, that is agile. Thus came down to the speed 400, duke 390 and the 310. - Duke is 70000 Rs extra. And the speed 400 looks too small for me as I am 6ft2. Thus looking at the looks and the agility and performance, I went for this one.

[@abhighnasharma9159]

I test roaded it, it had a jumpy throttle, but liked the grip and handling a lot, i never felt anything like this before. But the buzz and the aftersales service is a huge letdown, especially for the money i put on a 300cc bike!!! While competition is having better tech with 400cc!!! Honestly It would be foolish to buy. I have a question, how is the handling of rtr 310 compared with duke 390..... Which is better? Or better put which is more confident & fun, in twisties or straight.

[@Harsh12351]

It would have been insightful if you would have compared this to BMW 310R vecayse according to latest updates the vibration and noise issues in it did significantly go down. So, why a person would not splurge on that or say a Honda Cb300R?

[@shalinmodi6748]

Eager to listen about new yezdi adv. 2.0 with alpha2 engine from schumi..... It may not be as gr8 as new Himalayan but can definitely be good tourer

Sh!7 ... that ending was awesome, summarized in one sentence.

[@pranaykrpiyush8572]

Why are so many people categorising based on cc? Like 300 or 400 categories and why not based on horsepower?

[@abzzy100]

Yes you should buy one😆

[@ruutu18]

Look maxxx bike ❤️‍🔥

[@suvamsingh2588]

Make a similar video on Duke 250 gen3 (with tft) . It'll provide a better picture for the viewers who want to purchase a bike and are confused among Speed400, Rtr310, CB300r and Duke 250.

[@motorinc]

Mechanically the 250 Duke remains the same @suvamsingh2588, check out review here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZi1mHljftCbfrs

[@suvamsingh2588]

@motorinc Bhai isko public to karo 🙃 members only me h

[@ajayaravind3814]

yes.. it is priced 'optimistic'. but tvs are the only manufacturer who is genuinely trying here. First ronin and now rtr 310.. They tried to bring a new one and it is rough.. At least try to encourage a bit for their doings.. We need enthusiasm not a business oriented brand.

[@motorinc]

We're all for it @ajayaravind3814! But we'll be honest in pointing out the shortcomings too. Real people are going to be spending their hard-earned money on this and we'd like them to know the product for what it is today.

[@tesla1772]

What are your opinions on cb300f

[@motorinc]

Haven't received a test bike so far @tesla1772!

2.60 Lakh Budget, I want a bike for daily commuting and occasional highway touring in around Bangalore. I am 6 feet tall, weight 80kg. Please suggest.

Been waiting for a test bike from Honda for a long time @lalsri

[@akashr2396]

Quick question! You guys don't talk about EVs? I was waiting for the Mahindra Be 6e vids.. but it looks like it's never coming out?

[@motorinc]

We don't have the full picture of the cars yet @akashr2396! We'll wait until we do. Speaking of electrics, here's our latest stories on some of them: 1. MG Windsor: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2Snno2soM99pZY 2. Tata Curvv EV: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKvJloeHorxkndk

Believe me or not i got the latest (sept 24) manufactured bto variant the vibes are same as cbr 150r which i owned dont know why everyone are focusing on that this much the suspensions are best never had any malfunctions in electronics department first time went for tvs bike and m having fun.

[@motorinc]

Glad to hear that you're enjoying it @ridencampp!

[@madhavtripathi6250]

You should do a video on best bikes and cars in every catagory 2024 . Suggestion

[@motorinc]

Thanks for the suggestion @madhavtripathi6250

[@nethaji9653]

Does this conclusion apply to BMW G310R (Naked) as well? Or is it worth considering to buy one still in 2025? Can you please make a similar video on G310R

[@motorinc]

Not directly @nethaji9653, we haven't tested that one yet.

[@aravindbhargava1651]

How can we expect cruise control in a budget motorcycle work like in super bikes like multistrada or Hayabusa or triumph rocket etc.. They gave it in a budget motorcycle which itself is a big thing

[@motorinc]

The complaint is not about how it works @aravindbhargava1651, it's about how you activate it. The system itself is quite useful and reliable.

[@vinaychinthla314]

i guess changing the sprocket from rr310 make bike less buzzy, that side look 9:06 is best in segment

[@motorinc]

Our question is, why did they have to change it in the first place? 🤷🏼

[@vinaychinthla314]

@ that sprocket might be enable to access more speed in less rpm

[@GearUp45]

@@vinaychinthla314 if we change the sprocket from rr310 ,is there any difference in acceleration and mileage?

[@vinaychinthla314]

@ yea acceleration comes down a bit

[@kirayoutube5252]

TVS have already reduced the vibration. Almost zero now on handlebars. Rest of the body some vibrations are there but reasonable for solo riding. The vibration reviews are based on the initial batch or the pathetic service centers which still have the old batch for test drives.
