KTM 390 Duke rivaling 2022 BMW G 310 R launched in India at ₹2.70 lakh
After globally announcing the new G 310 R street naked bike, BMW Motorrad has now launched the bike in the Indian market at ₹2.70 lakh (ex-showroom). At this price, the motorcycle comes out ₹5,000 costlier than the previous model. With the new yearly update, the motorcycle has received a bunch of new colour options. The bike is now available for purchase in three colours - Racing Blue, Racing Red, and Cosmic Black 2 shades. Save for the updated colour scheme, the rest of the details remain unchanged.
At the heart of the motorcycle continues to sit the same 313cc, single-cylinder engine which is known to deliver 33.5bhp and 28Nm. The engine comes paired to a six-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch. The same engine is also found on the G 310 GS motorcycle which is an adventure touring offering.
