The front forks are finished in golden colour and there are tank shrouds on offer as well.

The Apache RR 310 is one of the most feature-loaded motorcycles in the Indian market. It is expected that the motorcycle will feature ride-by-wire, riding modes, Bluetooth connectivity and a hazard switch. The Apache RTR 310 will also come with LED lighting and a new horizontal TFT screen.
Same engine as the Apache RR 310

Underpinnings shared with Apache RR 310
The Apache RTR 310 will share its underpinnings with the Apache RR 310. So, the frame will be the same but the sub-frame will be different. The engine and the cycle parts will also be shared between the two motorcycles. So, expect the suspension hardware and braking equipment to be the same.
Will have a striking design language
From the teasers, it is pretty clear, that the design of the new motorcycle will be one of the important aspects. It looks like an aggressive muscular naked streetfighter. The headlamp has a split setup, there is a muscular fuel tank and a sharp rear-end.
