TVS Apache RTR 310 is naked street racing type which has little bit of inspiration from Ducati Street fighter V4. In designing TVS has done commendable job. Although the look might be subjective to person to person. Let’s see some highlights regarding design and ergonomics.

From front TVS Apache RTR 310 looks very aggressive and performance packed. The radiator and its designing and very specifically the flaring added to radiator adds additional aggressiveness to the front.

The exhaust might look very big to some riders and little bit out of place but from the back this exhaust looks really good. If exhaust is not big or large the bike will look very small and clumsy. Exhaust is also loud. If someone likes little loud exhaust TVS Apache RTR 310 might be their first choice.

The Bi LED headlight system works very well and it is very vibrant due to which rider might not need extra auxiliary lights. When rider opens the throttle the light gets vibrant even more with zero heating issue.

It also gets really good and responsive quick shifter which is optional for bi directional as well. The response might feel better than KTM Duke 250. Which aids the rider to quickly downshift without any harm to engine.

It also gets Glide through Technology (GTT) which makes the bike glide through very small gaps and cuts with intervention of ABS due to which the chances of skidding at panic braking gets very low. With 5 different ride modes Sport, Track, Supermoto, Urban and Rain. Many people might enjoy Urban and sports mode very much.

5 inch TFT display is also very vibrant and visible even during bright afternoon and also has very good response time. This bike also comes with Cruise control which will be very helpful for riders who want to cruise on highway all day long. However the button for cruise control might not be very responsive or of very good quality.

The completely digital instrument cluster displays real-time information such as speed, rpm, fuel level, gear position, and more, keeping riders informed and connected at all times.

First time in Indian market TVS has launched auto cooling and heating seats which might feel very much big upgrade but the execution of this feature is not good because the fans might hurt your sitbones and tail bone. It’s a naked street racer so the pillion seat is not very comfortable.

RR 310 has improved the vibrations damping which was quite a problem in GS 310. In this naked version Apache RTR 310 this problem came back again. Vibration damping was not good because it is not a fully flared bike.
