BMW's New 2017 G 310 GS Is A Legitimate Contender For The Mini ADV Crown


BMW's New 2017 G 310 GS Is A Legitimate Contender For The Mini ADV Crown Interesting lower end option adventure style bike from BMW in a 313cc size. It is cheaper but does lack the power of its bigger brothers. The bikes were developed in Munich by BMW Motorrad and will be produced in Bangalore, India in cooperation with TVS Motor Company. The baby Beemers represent BMW’s entry into markets that may not have been able to sustain sales of the manufacturer’s larger, pricier models. The G 310 series is the smallest displacement bike ever produced by BMW, not counting the R2 from the 1930s. With the introduction of these smaller bikes, BMW joins the likes of the Japanese Big Four and European manufacturers such as KTM in bringing smaller bikes to American shores. The bikes share BMW’s new 313 cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, designed with four valves and two overhead camshafts, together with electronic fuel injection. It produces 34 horsepower at 9,500 rpm and 21 pound-feet of torque at 7,500 rpm. The bikes are produced for a world market, and as such can accommodate various qualities of fuel while meeting emissions requirements and maintaining fuel efficiency. See http://ift.tt/2hditJQ
