TVS Apache RTR 310: Design
Despite sharing the same platform as the RR 310, the new Apache RTR 310 looks nothing like its fully-faired sibling. In fact, it looks very different from the rest of the naked street fighters in the RTR range. From the outset, the RTR 310 looks much more radical than the other naked streetfighters in TVS’ lineup.
Visual highlights of the Apache RTR 310 include a split-style angular headlamp, sharp tank shrouds, an exposed rear subframe, split seats, and a chunky side-slung exhaust. The rear end gets a raised tail section with split grab rails and a tyre hugger with turn indicators mounted on it. The overall design looks very sporty with an aggressive forward-leaning riding stance.
TVS Apache RTR 310: Features & hardware
It won’t be wrong to say that the new Apache RTR 310 is the most heavily loaded model in the TVS’ lineup. With segment leading features such as cruise control, five riding modes, music control, voice assist, climate control seat, a bi-directional quick shifter, tyre pressure monitoring system, the RTR 310 clearly outclasses all motorcycles in its segment.
Other notable features in its kit include a 5-inch TFT instrument panel, smartphone connectivity via Bluetooth, all-LED illumination, USB charging port, and in-built navigation. TVS is also offering a comprehensive 6-axis IMU electronics package comprising features such as cornering ABS, traction control, race tuned dynamic stability control, wheelie control, SuperMoto ABS (switchable rear ABS), etc.
In terms of hardware, the Apache RTR is based on a trellis frame and a lightweight aluminium sub-frame that sits on a fully adjustable suspension setup from KYB featuring upside-down front forks and a rear mono-shock. The bike rolls on 17-inch alloy wheels shod with Michelin Road 5 tyres. Braking duties are carried out disc brakes at both ends accompanied by a dual-channel ABS as standard.
