5 sports bikes I would honestly buy if I was upgrading from TVS Apache RR 310

If I was moving on from the TVS Apache RR 310, I wouldn’t go for something that just feels “slightly faster”. The RR 310 already gives you sharp handling, good electronics and enough performance for daily riding plus weekend blasts. The upgrade should feel meaningfully quicker, more emotional, or more premium.

Probably the most natural progression from the RR 310. You get a twin-cylinder engine, a proper supersport riding feel, and a chassis that feels far more serious at higher speeds. It still feels manageable in the city, but on highways and corners, the jump is massive. This is the one I’d pick if I still wanted a faired sportbike but with a lot more character. The parallel-twin engine sounds amazing and puts out 47 bhp and 43 Nm.

This is still the most logical upgrade from the RR 310. The parallel-twin engine feels far more alive, the chassis is razor sharp, and the bike genuinely feels track-focused without becoming impossible to live with. The lightweight handling, aluminium frame and aggressive supersport ergonomics make it feel significantly more premium and exciting than the Apache. The 451 cc parallel-twin engine puts out 44 bhp and 42 Nm.

This is the “grown-up” upgrade. The Ninja 650 is not a hardcore supersport, but it gives you proper middleweight performance with everyday usability. Its comfortable riding posture, strong mid-range and touring-friendly nature make it ideal for RR 310 owners who want a bigger bike without sacrificing practicality. It feels substantially more mature on long rides.

4 Suzuki GSX-8R

The GSX-8R is probably the most exciting all-rounder in this list. It gets a 776cc parallel-twin engine producing around 82 bhp and 78 Nm, which is a massive jump from the RR 310. Suzuki’s 270-degree crank gives the bike a deep, punchy character that feels closer to a V-twin. The electronics package includes ride modes, traction control and bi-directional quickshifter, making it feel properly modern. Despite the performance, the ergonomics are surprisingly comfortable, making it a sport-tourer you can realistically ride every day.

5 Triumph Daytona 660

This is the aspirational upgrade. The Daytona 660 uses a 660cc inline three-cylinder engine producing around 95 bhp and 69 Nm. The triple-cylinder motor is the highlight here because it combines the low-end usability of a twin with the top-end excitement of an inline-four. The bike feels smooth, premium and incredibly special every time you twist the throttle. It also gets advanced electronics, multiple riding modes and a refined chassis setup. If the goal is to make the jump from entry-level sportbike ownership to something genuinely exotic-feeling, the Daytona 660 makes a very strong case.
