TVS Apache RTR 310 vs KTM 250 Duke: Where is the 390 Duke? | PowerDrift

You are looking in the wrong direction! The new TVS Apache RTR 310 probably does not go up against the KTM 390 Duke. The pricing, the cubic capacity and the difference in performance. If you just take pricing here, maybe the RTR 310 goes up against the 250 Duke. Varun Painter and Ananya Awasthi with the answers!

A more sensible review. Elsewhere the RTR 310 is getting bashed for no reason, comparing it with the 390s, which makes no sense

[@powerdriftofficial]

Correct!

[@mrtaco5572]

it does the thing is rtr base variant can be compared to duke 250 and top variant to duke 390 since it has such vast options to choose from

[@nimalsunil8345]

RTR310 comes with traction control and cruise control as standard so base model with quick shifter is enough. If you want top speed then replace the sprocket with RR310’s sprocket.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Rear bigger?

[@notad3tya129]

​@@powerdriftofficialisn't the rear bigger meant for torque ? Smaller rear gives less torque but more top speed , learnt this while seeing a Duke 390 Gymkhana build

[@shivakumar-ef2iy]

Yeah the rear sprocket is 46 teeth for RTR 310 and 42 for RR310

[@Darth716]

Changing into RR310 sprocket doesn't make RTR310 go faster bro we tried it 😁🤣 (RR310 owner )

[@Rj-bikerK]

Not with base model it's with fury yellow which is priced at 3.1 lakh on road

[@aditkiranrachuru7477]

Y'all just ignoring the CB300r, it's as fast as the rtr 310, handles better as it's only 146 kgs and has a very refined and peppy engine. It might be lacking in terms of features but it's still a terrific experience overall. All for a price cheaper than the RTR 310.

[@powerdriftofficial]

We aren't ignoring it. Honda does not have one in their media fleet

[@senthamizhan665]

i am confused, i took test ride of both, as a 6 foot guy 250 feels smaller but way more agile than 310, but 310 has a liitle kick in acceleration in the initial gears (i loved it), is it at 5 bhp more making that difference ?, 310 has more vibration i felt it, but 250 seems to to calmer and refined, as a 2011 FZs owner any of these two bikes should give a considerable upgrade, i ride city ride and highway combined and occasional long rides. will 250 lifted to 820 mm seat height give a better experience ?

In Nepal, the price of KTM is Rs. 7,40,000 (4,62,000 Indian Currency) whereas RTR has not been launched and if it launches, it will be around Rs. 9,00,000 (5,62,000 Indian Currency) for the base variant.

Opinion for vitpilen 250 vs Duke 250?

[@sayantanchatterjee3626]

it's the same bike minus a few things. The Vitpilen has the MRF Revz which is objectively much worse compared to the Steelbraces on the Duke, which is better than the tyres on the 390. Vit misses out on traction control and ride modes while the Duke has them, it also has a tiny bit more wheelbase but not much to make a very stark difference in agility. The seat is 20mm higher on the Vit though it gets a flat spacious seat unlike the Duke which has less space in contrast. If you like Swedish minimalism the Vitpilen is a beauty but the Duke is objective an all round better motorcycle.

If you're looking at the TVS one, be ready to get lots of headaches as many of those fancy features might not work in a few months and good luck finding a good service center. (I own a ntorq, RTR200), my father has Raider

[@powerdriftofficial]

Oh hoo! That’s not good to hear

[@vickypietersen7326]

What features didn't work in the TVS vehicles you own bro?

[@desiCineMan]

@@vickypietersen7326 many things, rtr stopped within 1 month of purchase multiple times and didn't start, within a year in between the road the gear lever came off, clutch plate had to be replaced and they didn't honour the 5 year engine warranty because the dealer forgot to update the last service records. For the ntorq I was not able to use the xconnect app, millage is 30-32 even though I don't drive fast, there is a vibration sound from the speedo from day1 console for which the dealer told need to install a rubber padding which is not available now and we will bring it within a week, sadly 2 years ho gaya aur wo la nhi paaye, btw I raised complaint with higher authorities and for the issue in ntorq they said that I have to take it to a service station which is 60-70km from my place (dealer service was within 6km), the other option was that they will pick it up but repair and return will take 3-4 weeks, so they would need 3-4 weeks to fix a rubber padding. And I can keep on adding here but I think you got the point. Just to add, check reviews of tvs service centres, you'll understand.

[@desiCineMan]

Wow, my reply was deleted so quickly 😄

[@deepakmohapatra7416]

Glad to say that none of the feature ever stopped working on my RTR310 model which is 2 months old with 5500km. went around to do 200km in a single stretch and 800km in 13 hours of drive time. and it was comfortable. i am 5'7". this bike hardly need any maintenance and i come from handling Ntorq as my touring machine. timely make oil and filter change. and air filter replacement. most of its bolts are 5mm allen bolts are so far its proving to be easy to maintain. As far as me is concerned i deal with hardware and software on a daily basis so this kind of tech bike is easy to figure out. and for some less technical individuals yes it is going to be troublesome. app experience is 7/10 and the one this TVS pushes is their silly voice command system which is very annoying. and its the worst by far.

[@chandramowlij3127]

Love the way they introduced the heroes behind the scenes.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Team work makes the dream work.

[@Aditya-tj6vv]

Quite happy to see the your team. I don’t generally see them in the reviews of channels. Due credit should be given to them and thank you PD for bringing them.

[@powerdriftofficial]

😊😊

[@Ashes-9]

Why did they have to use the Apache moniker all over the tank shroud? apart from that, the design and the colour variant is just 🔥

[@powerdriftofficial]

Attractive no?

[@adityabaghel729]

varun just adopt me as a younger brother , I wanna ride your bikes and capture it.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Damnnnnn! No wasting time there

[@say2merohit]

last bit was captured really well :) very nice review explaining the potentials of the motorcycles :)

[@powerdriftofficial]

Thanks a ton!

[@virajvrooms]

The rtr is super buzzy than the KTM. Other than that I don't see any reason to complain. TVS has given it all. People who can afford the luxury of electronics will buy the kits, people who cant can still be happy with a good product base version. But this bike wont sell unfortunately. TVS needs to bring an ADV asap with all these BTO goodies.

[@powerdriftofficial]

ADV sounds good 😌

[@satyajitroy1907]

Great video appreciated , you guys are from another universe . Not a single thing missed

[@powerdriftofficial]

Varun and Jim Jam. Name a better combo I'll wait.

[@Sandeee]

why are poor tires on duke an easy fix? replacing new tires is costly and stupid too.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Easy because you have Eurogrip, Ceat, Apollo at a relatively affordable price

[@krishnakumarm6773]

The indian one is giving enough tough to the Austrian one But IMO i choose KTM over TVS

[@powerdriftofficial]

👌👌👌

[@Krish-wc1yz]

I would any day go for cb300r when compared with these two motorcycles, 1. Best price now lowered so 2. Best acceleration 3. No non sense features 4. Best in class mileage because of the compression ratio and light weight 5. Lightest in segment period. 6. Best handling bike 7. Last ......... Besttttt in class reliability. Flaws: 1. Just one that is fuel tank its ok I will live with it now in india for every 100 km you can find a petrol bank so its ok.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Well we haven't ridden it yet.

[@tushargautamarya2785]

Duke 250 owner here, chose it over the rtr 310 mainly because of the price and service. And I'm loving the 250.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Good to hear that mate.

[@parkershine21]

Bro, I am really interested in buying the Duke 250 not trolling you but I have a serious concern. have you ever been called Chapri because you own this bike or other people of your age considered you some lowkie asshole . I nean what the peers call think about duke. Bro, are you understanding what i am trying to say..😅

[@ENGDSRudraNarayanChetty]

overall a good video as expected from PD just the overuse of memes takes away a bit from the appeal. great video overall.

[@powerdriftofficial]

Tried to do something different! Thank you foe the feedback
