Rally Raid G310GS: Close-up Look at the New Adventure Kit

- Ex-Dakar Rally Racer and Adventure Rider, Jenny Morgan, gives us a detailed rundown of the new bolt-on Adventure Kit for the BMW G310GS from UK-based Rally Raid Products. The kit includes everything to transform the budget-oriented Baby GS into a more off-road capable and better all-around adventure bike. As part of her role as a test rider for Rally Raid, she’s been instrumental in developing the new adventure kit. During our discussion, she describes some of the weak points addressed in the stock BMW G310GS, improvements gained, differences between the ‘Level 1’ and ‘Level 2’ kits, how the bike compares to the Rally Raid CB500X Adventure and more!

Have a feeling we're gonna be seeing more of Jenny lol there's no denying that what she did with the G310GS in the amount of time (or lack thereof) we had to wait to be able to get these kits for the G310GS is nothing short of incredible based on how small of an operation shes running (that is the impression I've gotten anyway).. Meanwhile she personally has put a few thousand miles on the G310GS lol talk about living and breathing Adventure bikes, this is a truly rare and impressive display of individual effort made here. No doubt in order to snatch up an entire lucrative markets worth of products in one fell swoop and I bet theres gonna be a lot of these kits going around and not much of else on these bikes
The spoked wheels make all the difference in making the bike look like a true GS.
Great job guys. The bike looks like it performs well.
Great upgrades on my two favorite bikes : 310 Gs BMW and cb 500 x Honda.... they brought the essential upgrade who missed on the both original models... Thanks
Very informative! That exhaust sounds great!
It's a pretty sweet looking bike that's for sure
2:55 The tubular engine guard welds look miserable. How is it possible?!
This is what my G310GS wants to be when it grows up.
I wish BMW made a G310GS Adventure, with a larger fuel tank, spoke tubeless wheels, engine protection and upgraded suspension. All of that is available in the aftermarket (thanks Rally Raid!) except the larger fuel tank, and for my old man adventures, that's the feature I'd most like to have.
Excellent detailed review of the different upgrade kits available for the mini-GS. Jenny really knows her stuff and explains it well. The tracks you show demonstrate its broad capability. I'll bet many riders here would think twice about tackling them even on an enduro, much less a 400 pound ADV rig. Lighter ADV rigs will bring more new riders into the industry at a lower entry cost and they can gain confidence before moving up to bigger bikes, if they so desire.
That dude is a chick?
@@ekimandersom4478 Not sure if you're being cheeky but I'd wager she would put most of us to shame riding some tough technical terrain. Do you have a substantive critique of her knowledge or explanation of the RR features?
@@osimnod No i seriously thought a guy was talking
This broads capability?
@@markroberts1838 I was obviously referring to the bikes' "broad capability".
Great stuff guys!
Thank you! Hope it was helpful.
Skid plate looks awesome just wondering if it makes it difficult to remove the oil filter or change the oil?
Please update us on the NEW 2021 BMW G310gs upgrades from Rally Raid!🙏🏽
Same bike
Piękny motocykl 👌
I wreszcie mniejsze wydanie GS z serii BMW! Siedziałem dziś na nim... Chcę go mieć! :) Pozdrawiam!
She knows her stuff
Shit and Pigeon come to mind when I look at the welding on that engine guard ! But they have addressed this and have got a lot better at welding mine looks really good. Keep it up Rally Raid great job but maybe a little cheaper Please.
WOW!!!!!!!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH, FOR THIS AWESOME REVIEW!!!! I RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS BIKE, (USED: 2018), AND I WANT TO RETROFIT/UPGRADE MY BIKE WITH MOST OF THESE SUGGESTED MODS! WHERE CAN I GET THESE NEEDED ITEMS, IN THE U.S.A.??!!!....
google
Aparrently BMW almost released this bike with a different higher exhaust... would love to see that fixed in the aftermarket. The low pipes look so scooter-ey. Dreaming of F650's...
So nice i liked..!!!!
How much of this kit could be used to turn the G310R into a Scrambler?
That engine guard was welded by Ray Charles... with his legs.. behind his back.
while hanging upside down..
Bahaahaa!
i would love to know if the 310 a good tourer
i have two friends with bigger bikes and i want to know if i can catch up with them on a long ride going with 70-75 miles per hour (110-120 km/h)
im asking about vibration, small 11 L Tank and the comfort
thanks
As a 310 owner I would say not more than 110 km/h and there are vibrations
Where can I buy these spoked wheels?
i am in india and how can i buy rally raid conversion kit i.e. spoked rim , front froks , rear shocks etc ....
Go to their website
Rallraidproducts.co.uk
@@satyamsharma9414 is this the correct website www.rally-raidproducts.co.uk/ ????
nive vidéo; Jenny do you prefer the Rally Raided CB500X or the G310GS ? Pros & cons please; thanks
Hey Trekky, she talks about that at min 7:30.
ADV Pulse : Thanks
Contemplating between KTM 390 ADV and BMW g310gs. Any recommendations?
I think it depends on your area and services !! In my area bmw have a 50/50 service but ktm has better service anyway i took the bmw ...and had 2 pay a bit in rto and othera
Dealer allowed me test ride; Most notable thing is the motor needs some torque, it has almost nothing under 5000rpm. I love Beemers and I think The 310GS is one of the best looking ADVs out there but I'm looking at RE Himalayan.
I’m planning to buy the BMW 310GS and would like to convert it. Is it possible for me to order for the convention kit and have it delivered to the Philippines.
Anything is possible
You need to improve sound. Very hard to hear the voice in some places
Will there be an adventure kit for its rival, Kawasaki Versys X300?
We've been told 'no' by Rally Raid. Too similar to their CB500X kit it seems.
this the bike bmw should built or honda or yamaha with a 450cc motor. I ll keep my xr650L and put a seat concepts seat on it.
I had one no power .against the wind it struggles to go over 50 .no power to climb up hills.
Looks good but welding on the engine bars is awful
to be fair, the bars fitted to the US demo bike were a pre-production example, while the final dimensions were still being worked out.
This would be an ideal bike if it was 399cc 45hp with an adjustable suspension with spokes rims with a 58 wheel base.
Tyres used ?
Bridgestone Adventurecross AX41.
Way no 21” front wheel?
The bike is not physically the right size for a 21" wheel. The bike goes everywhere with a 19". Remember it is a dual-perpose ADV bike, not a full-on dirt bike.
Im swapping my 21 for a 19 on the F800GS.
@@CanadianTexaninLiguria I've nothing but good things about doing that. The 21" was only to distance the bike from the r1200gs.and fit it in another more off road market.
So, around $8K+ all said and done? There's the price point you need to come under with the 390 Adv, KTM. Of course, there's always the RE Himalayan, with most of these upgrades already included in the sub $5K pricing, as well as a larger fuel tank. Yeah, it's heavier, but add $3K in suspension and motor upgrades, and I think the prop bike would pale in comparison, maybe the orangesicle too.
The Royal is a pile. The only thing it has going is the price
The BMW isn't mentioned on the Rally Raid webpage....
It's on their homepage.
when done building this little 310 you will wish you just bought a bigger 750 or 850 adventure. Would be cheaper anyways
Meh, looks cool I guess. Honestly, I'd rather have a Honda CRF Rally with a few fakles.
Y0
sup
Really raid keeps blocking my comments.
Bad@ss bike.
Im just 5”4 do you recommend it?
The best way is to go to a dealer and sit on it - ask them to put the bike up on axle stands so it is level and not tipped over on the side stand. Or have someone hold the motorcycle from the front to keep it level and you sit on it and try the reach to the floor.
Yeah, the seat height is reasonable but if you want it lower Rally Raid also offers a shorter ‘low’ version of their LEVEL 1 shock which immediately reduces the original seat height.
No. I'm 5"9 and can barely touch.
Well I'm 5"7 and can touch with both feet so not sure why you can barely touch lol. And as it was mentioned above, Rally Raid offers a low version.
Rev Maniac how do you like the bike so far?
Add $5000 in add on parts to a $5000 bike and ya got something there....... 🙄
Yeah kinda bullshit.
Instead of gaining 2 kg with upgraded exhaust, you can upgrade the rider and gain 20 kg. Just joking ;)
Wow.... nearly £8000 for a made in India.... budget bike that can’t go on motorway..... £8000 buys you one hell of a good secondhand quality £15-18k new price bike..... corrosion and weak parts breaking off is the future.... doesn’t deserve the bmw badge.....
is that a Man or a Woman?
