In
Germany, the 2016 BMW Motorrad G310R goes for 4,750 euros in base form, while in
neighbouring Switzerland, eager buyers can expect to pay 5,350 Swiss francs. In the UK, the baby Motorrad retails for
4,290 pounds sterling.
The 2016 G310R, which was developed in
conjunction with BMW’s Indian partner TVS, comes with a set of factory optional
accessories. In the list are a rear-rack with two topcase options – a standard
29-litre case, and a 30-litre topcase that comes in Granite metallic grey.
An
inner bag for the topcase is also available, along with two seat versions – a
soft seat, which we assume is a form of gel-seat, and a lower seat for
vertically challenged riders. Other options include a centre-stand, LED turn
signals (we remarked on this during the G310R’s showing in Bangkok) and a
12-volt socket for powering accessories and charging gadgets.
Coming
standard with ABS, the 2016 BMW Motorrad G310R carries a 313 cc liquid-cooled
single cylinder engine that pumps out 34 hp and 28 Nm of torque at 7,500 rpm.
Weighing in at 158 kg, the G310R is designed by BMW to be marketed world-wide
as an entry-level bike for the young rider, or as a lightweight commuter.
