BMW launched the G 310 GS in 2018 while the price was way too much for what it offered. BMW India has given it a massive price cut and it is now a lot more accessible. It sits right in between the KTM Adventure bikes but does it provide best of both worlds? We answer that in today's video.

The top-speed doesn't really change for the next 6 seconds even after shifting to the 6th gear.
So you guys commenting about the shift which I didn't do, because it was unnecessary and to spare your 6 seconds...
Op Bhai 🔥🔥
Plz do review of Fz25 bs6
Thats why RTR is not equipped with 6th gear 🤣
Well I don't agree here... I weigh 65kgs and it does go beyond this point. YOU may want to double check it.
Nice review but you forgot to mention the 'ride by wire throttle' which has been added in the 2021 GS.
Why does it feels like no one gives a shit about the 310r
🥲😅
5:22 one click start or you have to hold it. that's a new thing in the review,

Whats the difference bru
Здравствуйте! Подскажите пожалуйста где можно купить такую же защиту картера двигателя, как на Вашем мотоцикле?
Lovely video man! Helped..cheers and ride safe!
The bash-plate and engine-guard, where to get these from (they're aftermarket)?
Both are available with the dealer. However ignore the plastic bash plate
I own a 2018 310gs and these are my impressions riding on pavement: very confortable position, excellente for commuting. HP for urban ride is sufficient. Excellent front brake and carries a pillion without any extra effort. For the highway and rough roads, front and rear suspensions give a confidence ride. Cons: low torque and not so good rear brake pedal system. The Bike was not made for serious off-road ride.
Well for a serious off road you may want to go for an Enduro or Dual Sports...It is a GS (Galande/Strabe) simply means On and Off road...So any adventure bike is not made for only off road purposes. There are segments Brother Adv's, Dual Sports, Enduros, scrambler, Super Moto etc etc.
You want low torque out on the trails to pull you out of the $hit
Brilliant review... every aspect covered 👌👌👌👌
Does this GS come with knuckle gaurd?
Is there anything wrong with the rear shock of the shown motorcycle
😍 beautiful motorcycle. GREETINGS FROM COLOMBIA BROTHER
The Fact that BMW have Deleted Switchable ABS is a Deal Killer in my book !!!
euro 5 norms
@@rishunarayansingh The purpose of switchable abs is so you don't have to pull the fuse so you can lock the back wheel OFF ROAD !
@@vince38curious2 Ik brother…! I said they are removed because of he Euro5 norms which doesnt allow the abs to be turned off
@@rishunarayansingh Another case of Lawyers getting involved with politics setting policy on subjects of which they have no real interest and worse still no understanding !
Yes exactly.... I am glad I have a 2020 Model and it does have the ABS kill switch.
I weigh 65kgs and at the 6th gear it does go beyond what you have shown and mentioned on your pinned comment and it doesn't take that long either.
But still I love your videos and reviews and I am a subscriber too.
Remember that the 310GS gets better fuel economy than the KTM390. That's why the fuel tank is smaller.
ありがとう！すごく分かりやすかった！
Hope service cost is affordable too ? Or is it like servicing cost of premium SUV?
Hello, very good video
I have a question, I am 1.65 cm tall and the motorcycle is very tall, can the suspension be lowered?
Thank you
greetings from Mexico
Dont think so. I guess 165cm isnt a bad height to ride this bike. The anchor seems to be around ur height
Yes can be lowered ! Either at dealer or installing lowering block and changing rear shock
Thanks for your vidéo. Nobody talk about the abs button who is now missing 😭😭
One thing I'm curiously waiting for in the next video Maintenance Cost- Adv390vsG310gs
Phenomenal job 👌
BMW really needs to launch a 650cc adventure bike. That's the sweet spot between HP & Weight
Royal Enfield too
Ur absolutely right....When KTM launched the Duke series it revolutionise the performence bike segment in india with an overwhelming hype....if bmw wants to get a bite into indian motorcycle market, they should launch a higher capacity bike on a budget...and with a better marketing strategy..
a BMW 510 ADV Twin would be the SWEET SPOT to combat the upcoming KTM 490 ADV!
Agreed!!!!
You mean a single cylinder 650 cc adventure bike like the BMW F650GS which was available in India for a few years?
Hello where i can find this optique ?
Maybe on reliability front...but, there is no bike under 500cc which can offer the exhilerating performence of KTM 390 engine..
Unfortunately, the ride by wire throttle has diluted some of that exhilaration.
@Muckin 4on , NSR250...ur comparing a modern day production bike to a race spec bike...😀😀
Its like comparing a s1000rr to a Suter mmx....😀
@Muckin 4on , actually it was desined for closed circuit races..Later honda made a street legal version of it...old gen 2 stroke bikes were really powerful and lightweight..i had a RD350 too...but we cant compare them to modern bikes...
Ninja 400 ? 🙄🙄
Is it suitable for 5:6
Misses in this , pillion seat comfort, switchable rear ABS, TFT console with Bluetooth connectivity , fuel tank capacity.
Which is better .. 2021 bmw g310 gs or 2021 himalayan...
I really like your detailed explanation. How can I buy and ship 🚢 such a bike to kenya 🇰🇪 from 🇮🇳 ?
Testing top speed in 5th gear 😅! when u will upshift to 6th then?
Nice review, thnx.
Funnily in the smartphone world.. LCD > TFT!.. In bikes TFT> LCD 😛
are all those accessories STANDARD equipment on the NEW 2021 model?
Sorry my bad. They are extra.
Onroad price??
Which camera using
Guys I love your videos, but while using the headphones your intro music is a bit harsh... Can you mellow it down
Cruising speed ??
Good review bro.To guy who is talking.
Hii
Dose bash plate installed by compoy????
No it's a seperate accessories u hav to pay extra I don't know the cost
so finally, is it better to choose KTM 390 adventure? or is BMW 310 gs a good option?
310gs everyday..it's a far comfortable long range cruiser than 390adv
Very good job bro. Jay hind.jay bharat.
A basic non-TFT dash is fine by me.
I am planning to buy this motorcycle very soon...... probably next month or so.....I couldn't see the final verdict whether its value for money or not?
It depends on what you want. A good tourer ? Then its great. A good adventure bike ? Well maybe the KTM is better in that regard.
Maintanence and service cost is too high , it's service cost is similar to 800cc bike ,even simple brake pads of 300rs costs 2000rs ,good bike just for show off not for real adventure
@@killg3132 Not at all. It costs around 10k for a year of service. My one service cost of my Z650 costs 8.5k for simple oil change :(
The costs used to be higher but they reduced it quite a bit. The brake pads are now 800 bucks no longer 2000.
@@brendonfernandes2877 may b they reduced a bit ,my brother had 1st gen bike ,and maintenance was very high
@@killg3132 Yes. Initially all parts were imported which resulted in very high costs. But they have started localising everything and that has resulted in reduced cost of ownership. That's why BMW were the only ones who reduced their ex showroom price when everyone increased it. To make their bikes more VFM.
In the meanwhile I'll be crying when I have to spend 15k to change all three brake pads in a years time :'(.
The deal breaker for me was the vibrations and service costs.
My well kept 2017 Avenger 220 street has got far more less vibrations past 100Kmph than this one. The gear shifts was horrendous. Not sure if that was an issue with the demo bike, but the vibrations is such a deal breaker.
Apart from the vibrations, this is an amazing machine. Loved the suspension, breaks, comfort and styling. BMW and TVS should really work on the refinements. Hoping that the next iteration addresses that.
After using GS for 1400km, gearbox is smooth now. Earlier it was very hard.
Until 4k rpm, motor is very smooth from beginning. But vibrations can be felt slowly after 5k. But after using it for so long, it's reduced and can cruise at 100km without much issues. It's completely bearable now.
@@suthardhaval9 That makes sense. I will try few other rides from my friends circle.
How are the service costs and spare parts cost? I believe the parts are 3 times more expensive or twice from most other premium brands. Is it so?
@@Rajeshbldrkp Services cost is 6500. Which is ok as per one year or 10000 km.
Rest of the parts are costly compared to other brands. So if you buy this then should make sure you don't brake anything and use it wisely.
@@suthardhaval9 thank you 👍
what is your height??
How tall are you sir?
Alright so the gs310 and apache rr 310 weighs about the same actually according to most of the forums and Google the gs weighs less i get that the rr 310 has a full fairing... but how is it possible that the rr's top speed is 170 and according to the GPS meter its around 165-166 and the top speed of the gs is only 143.. there may be a possibility that weight of the rider contributes to it. There are ample of videos the the rr hitting 170 until the rev limiter kicks in no one has done a top speed review of the gs.
Please review Triumph Tiger 900...
Bro bmw 310 gs have 6 gear u had only put 5 gear why
whts ur height brother?
I agree on the fuel tank, and the abs button, but the instrument cluster I don't, like what else you need to know, for me that is just complaining
So TVS can give proper TFT with a bit more information is okay? While paying extra for this and not getting that much is complaining?
Kuch bhi
@@DhanilVira for me a tft display doesn't add any value in a motorcycle, there are literally 1000 aspects of Engineering that I care the most, just because they share the motor (tvs) that does not mean, they are they same motorcycle, it's just like cheap segments cars they offer a big screen and lack of security or power or handling, but you know entry level cars and bikes like TVS know very well their market, so their market is for the masses and big screen are attractive for the Mases not for real motorcyclist.
What's is his height ?
Is 5.5 too less of a height ro drive this?
Don't listen to anyone, test ride yourself, you'll find out
Waiting to watch G310r in MB version
Bro BMW g310r bs6 review please
Bro is service and maintenance is not Affordable for a govt employee with 30-40k salary...it is better to go for himalayan then.. service and maintenance is too low.. please reply anyone 🙏🙏🙏
Its only once in a year or 10 km not monthly
Brother verry well explained but let me tell you Ktm seats can be modified to provide the extra comfort that is in the BMW g310 my friend has done the same and pulls 150km at a stretch without aching his butt. But no matter what BMW offer best in class suspensions which has its advantages as well disadvantages. In this price range BMW offers obsolete technology as compared to todays generation KTM modelss....as comparing the two BMW service cost maintaince is on higher note with no presense of service network( which is big issue to look forward). They do provide RSA but at high cost. No doubt the quality of BMW on other hand is extremely great. And to look into both companies are making equal effort to offer something or the other in their motorcycle but if you in todays date BMW has just entered indian market and need to develop its market size and offer something other then its brand value... A person like me if i had to look for value o money i would choose KTM over BMW in todays date.
Switchable ABS has been taken because of Govt norms on Safety, now you cannot have switchable ABS, please done your home work before imparting your expert view.
The Himalayan and the 390/250 Duke/Adventure still come with switchable ABS. The only thing that changed in the 390 Duke in 2019 was that you cannot turn off ABS completely because of government safety norms. You can still turn it off on the rear. BMW gives the impression that it was too lazy to keep that feature. Please do your homework before imparting your expert view.

@@yasin_mhd_ sure.. will give proof
@@OutLawsTwoWheeler appretiate. Best of Luck :)
835mm, what bmw is thinking, are all riders in India very tall? What about bumper to bumper traffic and pathetic roads in India, will it not be an issue for short riders like me?
BMW vs dominar vs Himalayan vs ktm adventure
Gs310 looks large in real life. But the power figures doesn't match to its looks.
Doesnt fit midgets then.
IT def looks like a big bike and the power is decent too... What would you expect a 310cc to deliver?
Waiting for comparision
30km/L
Rr310 me hi abs aur Michelin Tyre de
What about service cost ? Better than ktm right?
Service cost approximately 8-9k
BMW G310R vs KTM 390 or Duke 250 please
Ktm 390 adv
Most awaited
A place where there is Dominar Himalayan ktm i don't think this can take their place.
Of course it can. Dominar and Himalayan are heavy ass bikes. This is far lighter by a good margin. The ktm has hard suspension while this has a soft suspension for our Indian roads
It still sounds like their is a Bee trapped inside the exhaust
😂😂😂
Nead G310 R review.
Could see reflections of buildings in the speedo while seeing your top speed run... 140± kmph in the city? Really?... Couldn't find a highway?? ... Please be more responsible while making content 🙏
It's was an highway bro
Near to city
Spare parts cost is reason not to buy
Right
True. Not to mention limited service centres pan India. Touring on this will be a risk considering service/spares availability only in major metros.
Service cost 😂...and moreover no proper TFT screen than KTM...
Yes, RE, ktm reasonable...
The Total cost of ownership of the BMW is less than the KTM Adventure. KTM bikes have bad resale value since they are perceived as chapri bikes. So after a few years the value of the KTM Adventure will drop like a rock and you will easily get another 30 - 50k advantage over the KTM Adventure in the resale department. So the additional 10k or so you will spend over the KTM in service costs will be more than made up in the long run.
@@brendonfernandes2877 understand bike standard,BMW at mid range segment with limited access is waste of investment and moreover once we buy a bike we develop emotion not comparison..
Definitely KTM 390 adventure console is not at all comparable with this
@@saiyashodakrishna3642 This is the problem. People are more interested in gizmos than actually riding a bike. And no bike is a waste of investment if it puts a smile on your face. More gizmos is just more things that can fail on a bike. The KTM had plenty of electronics issues thanks to the huge amount of gizmos
I'm not sure if youve ridden the GS310. I've ridden both the 390 Adv and the GS310 and I will choose 310 any day! It is such a pleasure to ride as it's quick and nimble. The last think you need on an ADV is extra weight. The throttle response, power, suspension and handling is spot on on the GS310 and you wouldnt think twice to take it out on city roads unlike the 390 ADV. I agree it's has less 'gizmos' to offer but a true rider will not feel undercut by the lack of it in the GS310. And don't forget that BMW has the GS Legacy to carry on. If it's not on the bike, it is for a reason.
You forgot to put it in 6 gear why ?

Optional accessories from the BMW dealer

But i want to know that the those accessories are provided with bike or you purchase extra??,
@@pratikpmpm No need to call me sir :O
So optional means you have to ask for them which means you have to pay for it. So the crash guard and hand guard costs extra money.
@@brendonfernandes2877 how much for it??

Amazing

Doesn't this things come with ride by wire trottel control 🤔
Yes
Just coming from test drive of this bike. Everything is great, suspension is amazing but it sounds like hero honda, so i got bored very fast.
Rather buy duke390 more powerful and more torque with new tech
A Duke ? Thats the worst advice possible. You can't tour on a Duke with its rock hard suspension and rock hard seat. This is an Adventure tourer with more emphasis on touring. A Duke is a bike meant for short bursts of riding.
@@brendonfernandes2877 😂🙏 wow first one to say you can't tour in duke wow !!
Duke is best tourer out there have you ever gone on long rides, rather than buying that shit bmw adventure most people buys duke390 and it's value for money also
@@himanshunegi2043 Best tourer in the world? Really? What makes it a great tourer? High ground clearance? Soft suspension? Good luggage carrying capacity? Smooth power curve for fatigue free riding?
7:47 .. he didnt even engage the final gear and claims top speed ..
Read the pin comment
Yaa he didn't use 6 geqr
Ya . I did read the pinned comment just now but still hard to believe that 6th is useless .
@@zaq8205 but why
6 gear is useless
So what would be the use of the 6th gear, guess have same gear ratio as 5th 😂
Which language is this ...Annunaki ?
No TFT High spares
bs 6 has only 5 gears (7.40 min)
Check pin comment pls
Why aren't you guys reviwing kawasaki ninja zx6r
Why review a discontinued bike ?
Ride by wire is missed on your foot
There are 6 gears and rider doesn't up last gear😑
Check pin comment pls
@@DhanilVira got clarified🙂
Still too much expensive for a single cylinder engine. Just feels like giggling how and what BS4 owners would feel...
Only the initial ones who paid full price. Two of my riding group friends have a gs. They bought it in 2019 for a little more than what the new version is selling at. They are both very happy with their bikes. New bikes are usually better than old. Nothing to feel bad about.
headlamp looks too lame with old halogen and too good now .. anyone can spot the difference with a small glance so. Im quite aure they will feel bad
@@zaq8205 Why must you feel bad if you bought an older model? :O
I have an older z650. People sometimes mistake it for a Dominar. I didn't buy the bike to show off but to enjoy the ride so I don't care about what others think of my bike. As long as a bike puts a smile on my face that's all that really matters. Do you buy a bike just to show off? Seriously?
How about comparing this with Himalayan bike !!!who will win??
Different price points. 1 lakh difference between both bikes. And since accessories of BMW is higher you will pay almost 1.5l more
Still no tubeless spoke wheels!! Frustrating!
Look up a company called Rally Raid, they make them for the 310
