    I went on holiday in South Africa in 2019 i bought this bike the next day after landing at the airport in Johannesburg. I traveled thousands of miles on that motorcycle with about 70 pounds of luggage on it and myself being 5-10 & 190 at the time going all over the country. It was fantastic! BMW bought it back from me at very good price when I left back to USA. I will always remember that bike and that truly amazing experience I was blessed with.

    Ride this bike everyday in Poland. Almost whole year. Already 18k passed away. It's not only entry level bike. I like light weight and middle (or even small) power bikes. Enough for city and traveling. I customize a bit, make something like scrambler and it's great bike! I've travel from Krakow to Prague, travel by poland... No problem, awesome bike!

    "For most people, it's all the power you need" You're so right! But the bike was first designed at BMW Germany, then a prototype was built in India & sent back to Germany where the production parameters were finalised & sent back to India, but I'm sure the best brains of both companies must have worked on it 😁😁😁 By the way, I rode 10 years a BMW 650 equiped with a Rotax engine...

    Long ago and far away in my youth I rode a 305 Honda Scrambler as an entry level street bike. I had already spent several years on off road and MX motorcycles. So I knew how to ride when I got on the the 305, it just felt like a heavy dirt bike. This little 34hp BMW, 70+ mpg, has got to be great in dealing with city traffic! My car is an older BMW 318i with a 1.8 litter. 4cyl. Yeah, I know Harley and Honda both make motorcycles with comparable size motors. However, lots of fun to drive, twisty roads and city traffic, great mpg, and I can put the top down in good weather. From the factory 135hp in a GVW of 2,500lbs. Size does matter, and big is not always better. LOL

    Baby Boomers will remember when the 350 was the "standard" size bike. Lots of grown men, (and women), riding 350's back then. Sometime later, the 750 became the standard. This is like going back to old times.

    As I was researching this, I see it has the ride by wire system which the duke 390 and a Svartpilen 401 also have. so does that mean that the BMW G310R can potentially be like those other bikes where they have the quick shifter automatic?

      @@sergeant_dornan_ It’s my first bike and I can honestly say that it has been fantastic to learn on. It has never intimidated me even on my first ride. The gearing is smooth, stock seat is surprisingly very comfortable and it gets 70 mpg as a commuter. The downside is that…. It doesn’t scare me enough. I am 1k miles in and I already feel that need for more speed, primarily for highway cruising. It is comfortable to cruise up until about 65-70 which is where it gets very vibey and sketchy feeling on the highway. For a city commuter though, it is fantastic and I think it might be the best looking bike in its class. I may even keep it and get another bike because it is so lightweight and fun to flick through turns.

  • @snap-happy
    @snap-happy 4 роки тому +30

    For info: This bike has been available in the UK since 2017. It goes surprisingly well so long as you make good use of the revs, and if you don’t, it’ll stall at every opportunity, to the point of it being downright dangerous. Additionally, each time it stalls, there is an odd (again dangerous) delay between pressing the starter button and the bike firing into life. Perhaps no surprise but, BMW’s service costs are eye-watering, even for the initial 300 mile oil-change. The side stand makes the bike lean at a worrying angle (no main stand as standard) and the foot pad on the side stand is far too small, leaving the bike liable to sink into soft ground. MPG is consistently excellent and the overall build quality appears reasonable - apart from the floppy front mudguard which developed stress cracks within a year. Oh, and the engine sounds like a bag of spanners on start-up. No seriously... it IS majorly embarrassing to listen to! Think sewing machine with big-end bearing failure.

      looking at my first bike, just took the CHP moto class--they let me use one of these bikes---what a frustrating bike to start out on---everyone in the class was stalling hard unsure of the revs as beginners...it felt unsafe...love the handling--lots of vibration for this small of an engine--you are spot on Sir!

    • @Liberty4Ever
      @Liberty4Ever 2 роки тому +9

      Starting in 2021, the BMW 310 got a slipper clutch and ride-by-wire, making it nearly stall proof.
      I do the very minimum and easy to do maintenance myself so dealer service fees don't bother me. This inexpensive bike has a full three year factory warranty which I never needed on my 2019 G310GS.
