The upcoming BS6 BMW G 310 R has also been
spied testing on the Indian roads. Just like its dual-sport sibling, the naked
street bike, too, didn’t have any camouflage on and, thus, revealed the new
matte black colour option together with some other cosmetic changes.
The main visual update that the new BS6
BMW G 310 R will get is a redesigned headlamp. It will ditch the halogen bulb
for an improved and advanced LED set up that should provide much better
illumination with reduced power consumption. The reworked headlamp should also
enhance the front view of the motorbike. BMW Motorrad would also incorporate a
set of new LED indicators.
The test mule of the BS6 BMW G 310 R
caught on camera carries a matte black colour which, to be honest, suits the
bike’s character. Also, the golden USD front forks add a contrasting appeal to
the motorcycle. BMW Motorrad could also implement a bunch of other new colour
options. Other than that, the rest of the bike will remain identical to the BS4
model.
Apart from the aesthetic updates, the new
BMW G 310 R will also get an updated 313 cc single-cylinder engine that will
comply with the more stringent Bharat Stage 6 emission standards. This revised
mill is expected to produce similar power (34 PS) and torque (28 Nm) figures as
it used to do in its BS4 state of tune.
