What to know about the G 310 R
This record is the G 310 R as BMW Motorrad India relaunched it on 8 October 2020, and the figures are transcribed from the technical data sheet attached to that announcement. It is a 313cc water-cooled single with two overhead camshafts, rated at 25 kW (34 PS) at 9,500 rpm and 28 Nm at 7,500 rpm, with a stated maximum speed of 143 km/h and a road-ready mass of 158.5 kg.
The chassis is where the specification is unusual for the class. The sheet lists a solid upside-down front fork, an aluminium swingarm with a directly mounted spring strut and a single front disc with a radially mounted caliper under two-channel ABS, in a tubular steel grid frame with a bolt-on rear section at a 1,380 mm wheelbase and a 785 mm seat. The electrics are a full LED package — headlight, tail light and daytime running lights — with a ride-by-wire throttle, a slipper clutch with self-reinforcement and adjustable clutch and brake levers.
The gaps in this table are the manufacturer’s, not MotoSutra’s. The October 2020 India sheet states no fuel-consumption figure, so there is no mileage row; it states the front brake as a single disc with a radial caliper without diameters, so no disc sizes are published here, and the figures circulating for the older global bike are a different model year. BMW Motorrad India announced this motorcycle at INR 2,45,000 ex-showroom; two 2025 reports state that it was withdrawn from the Indian market from January 2025 without an OBD-2B update, which is why the listing is marked discontinued.
- 25 kW (34 PS) at 9,500 rpm and 28 Nm at 7,500 rpm on the manufacturer’s India technical data sheet

- 158.5 kg unladen and fully fuelled, with an 11-litre usable tank and a 785 mm seat

- Usable tank capacity 11 litres, with approximately 1 litre reserve
Pros and cons
What we like
- The standard list is the case for the machine: an upside-down front fork, a radially mounted front caliper and two-channel ABS, all named on the manufacturer’s sheet
- LED headlight and tail light, daytime running lights, ride-by-wire and a slipper clutch are all on the standard list rather than the options list
- A 785 mm seat and 158.5 kg fully fuelled make this a small, low motorcycle on the manufacturer’s own numbers
What we would change
- A single cylinder that peaks at 7,500 rpm means the six-speed gearbox does most of the work
- The manufacturer’s India sheet publishes no fuel-consumption figure, so this record carries no mileage row at all
- The sheet’s own maximum-speed figure is 143 km/h, which sets a low ceiling for India’s expressways

Used G 310 R: checks before you buy
This is a general inspection checklist for a used bike; it does not describe known faults specific to this model. Have an independent mechanic inspect the vehicle and verify records before purchase.
- Ask for dated service invoices and confirm that the VIN and engine number match the registration and insurance documents.
- Inspect the frame, steering stops, fairings, levers and footpegs for crash damage or mismatched repairs.
- On a cold start and road test, check engine noise, clutch take-up, every gear, cooling, fork seals, chain and sprockets, brakes, tyres and ABS warning-lamp operation.
- Verify ownership count, loan closure, insurance validity, outstanding challans and transfer documents before paying.
Frequently asked questions
What is the price of the G 310 R on this listing?
INR 2,45,000, the ex-showroom India figure in BMW Motorrad India’s relaunch announcement of 8 October 2020 — inclusive of GST and compensation cess, excluding road tax, RTO statutory fees, local cess and insurance. The Style Sport colour was priced ₹10,000 above that. It is a launch price with a date attached, not a current quotation.
Is the G 310 R still on sale in India?
MotoSutra marks this record discontinued. Two April 2025 reports state that BMW Motorrad India stopped the G 310 R and G 310 GS from January 2025 without updating them to OBD-2B norms. No manufacturer document for the withdrawal was reachable from this build, so the catalogue state rests on that reporting rather than on a document from BMW.
What are the brake disc diameters?
Not published. The October 2020 India sheet states a single front disc with a radially mounted caliper and two-channel ABS without sizes, so no diameters appear on this page. Figures quoted elsewhere on the internet for the older global motorcycle are a different model year and market, and MotoSutra does not use them as a substitute.
What is the mileage?
There is no figure to publish. The manufacturer’s India technical data sheet states no fuel consumption, and MotoSutra holds no measured or reported economy number for this motorcycle, so the spec table has no mileage row rather than an estimate.
Where do the specification figures on this page come from?
From the G 310 R technical data sheet BMW Motorrad India attached to its relaunch announcement of 8 October 2020. Fields that sheet does not state are left out of the spec table rather than estimated.
