Pros Cons of BMW G 310 GS

Pros

  • Versatile budget ADV motorcycle
  • Good Ride quality
  • Comfortable riding position

Cons

  • No traction control or cornering ABS
  • Expensive
  • Not a true off-roader

Verdict

The BMW G 310 GS offers good performance on the road, be it smooth or broken. It is also game for mild off-roading and light trail-riding but anything more extreme, you might want to look at other options and at ₹ 3.49 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) it doesn't quite fall in the realm of affordable. If you are looking for something more rugged and industrial, you could check out the Royal Enfield Himalayan which is almost half the price of the G 310 GS.
