Bmw G 310 R
The Bmw G 310 R has a top speed of 143 km/h, produces 34 hp and weighs 158.5 kg. Motoryk rates it 7/10.
De BMW G 310 R werd in 2016 geïntroduceerd als de eerste roadster met één cilinder met kleine cilinderinhoud van BMW Motorrad, ontwikkeld in samenwerking met TVS Motor Company in India om opkomende markten aan te boren en nieuwere rijders aan te spreken. Het was een belangrijke mijlpaal als BMW's meest betaalbare instapmotorfiets, waarmee het doorbrak in het sub-500cc-segment dat het merk allang had vermeden. Het unieke omgekeerde motorontwerp, met de inlaat aan de voorkant en de uitlaat aan de achterkant, helpt de massa te centraliseren en is een opmerkelijk technisch gespreksonderwerp.

Wat kopers moeten weten
TVS-Built Engine Reliability
The G 310 R is manufactured by TVS Motor Company in India under BMW partnership, and its 313cc single-cylinder engine has proven generally reliable with proper maintenance intervals. However, some owners report occasional valve clearance issues requiring earlier-than-expected adjustments.
Steep Resale Depreciation
The G 310 R depreciates faster than larger BMW models, often losing 25-35% of its value within the first two years. This actually benefits used buyers, as you can get a near-premium experience at a significantly reduced price.
Reverse-Mounted Engine
The engine features a unique reversed cylinder head orientation, placing the exhaust at the front and intake at the rear, which improves weight centralization and handling balance. This unconventional design also means specialized knowledge may be needed for certain repairs.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Solid urban performer if you buy smart and service properly."
$3,500-$5,500 usedThe G 310 R is BMW's budget entry point, built by TVS in India, and that partnership shows in some of the plastics and switchgear feel. But honestly? The motor is the surprise here. That 313cc single punches harder than the numbers suggest, pulls cleanly from low revs, and sounds genuinely sporty when you're wringing it out. Suspension is properly sorted for city riding and light B-roads — not crashy like some budget singles. On a used example, check the service history religiously. These need valve clearances checked at 10,000 miles and owners often skip it. Also inspect the exhaust header for corrosion — it's a known weak point. Early 2017-2018 bikes had minor fuelling hiccups that later software updates resolved, so ask if that's been done. Parts availability through BMW dealers is decent, though labour rates sting. For urban commuting and weekend blasts, it genuinely delivers. Just don't buy one expecting German engineering throughout — it's a solid budget bike wearing a premium badge.
