TVS Apache RR 310 could soon be updated with winglets

Ever since it debuted in 2018, the Apache RR 310 has been one of the most feature-rich bikes in its class and now it seems TVS will be upping the ante even further with the introduction of winglets on its flagship model.

Winglets are usually seen on powerful supersport machines
Rest of the bike appears to be the same
Prices could see a small hike

TVS Apache RR 310: does it really need winglets?

Well, no. Winglets are common in the upper echelon of the supersport world, with almost every litre-class machine currently on sale sporting these aerodynamic appendages for downforce. The power outputs of these bikes are in the 200hp ballpark, and for aggressive track riding, aerodynamics help set quicker lap times, as MotoGP and WSBK riders routinely keep proving.

On the other hand, the Apache RR 310’s motor is rated for 34hp, which means these winglets will serve more as bragging rights rather than actually helping the motorcycle go faster. When TVS launched the RTR 310 last year, the company spruced up the 312cc powerplant to bump up its output to 35.6hp. With this update, TVS could also apply the same enhancements to the engine in the RR 310.

The rest of the motorcycle appears to be identical to the current model, and we don’t expect any fundamental changes. The standard Apache RR 310 is currently priced at Rs 2.72 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), before adding accessories available from TVS, such as adjustable suspension and fancier paint. We could see a small price increase when the Apache RR 310 with the winglets launches.
