I have a 2023 and I can say the bike is an absolute joy to ride. I do alot of city traveling and it's perfect for it. For me, definitely not a highway bike. Jump on the 650 for that.

I love mine! I also got the ‘23 as my first motorcycle. My husband said it rides smoother than his Ducati (i think his Ducati just needs to be broken in). For the price it’s a solid bike for sure.

@Luna Long Streak Congrats Luna! I was surprised just how easy the bike handles. The only issue is it can be easy to stall than something like a ktm 390 but about 1 hour in a parking lot getting used the friction zone it's easily nailed. I think for slow speed maneuvers it is an awesome nimbly machine. Be safe and enjoy the ride!

Love the sound tbh, and you laughed more on this bike than some of the other bikes js 👀🤣

Nice to see local people watching. Thanks!

Picked up a 2022 "used" with 900 miles! Still had the full warranty and I added a Puig windshield. Perfect for back roads, highway driving not the , best I hit 92 mph. City driving is a breeze, great for beginners and vets. A fun sized bike at a very affordable price

I bought one in 2020 and absolutely love it! It handles beautifully and is really agile and easy to zip around on - like a sports car. I mostly use it on the curvy, country roads of Pa. and it is perfect. Very good torque and acceleration. And it sounds great!

It’s plenty for that type of riding. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for sharing this! Curious if you have lots of wind buffeting on this? I love it, but I don't like a lot of wind on me. Thumbs up on a nice little review! 👍

You will get lots of wind as there is no fairing, which is true for all standard/naked motorcycles. There is no buffeting though because of the lack of fairing which causes turbulent air if it’s not enough to deflect around you. It will be just clean air, as if you were riding a dirt bike down the road.

really not sure about this or the z400. thanks for the review

I’d say go for the Z400 to get a little more power for highway riding and passing without being too much. Will likely be more reliable as well as Japanese bikes are just about bulletproof at this point. I think the G310R is for people that just want a BMW over one of its competitors. It’s made in India so it’s not their German stuff like the rest.

​@@BlackRiverRiderdid you test z400 or just saying based on specs?

@@basedpatriotLT I haven’t rode a z400 so based on specs. It’s just much more power for the same money. Like 30% more and will likely be more reliable as Japanese bikes are known for that. It’s really personal preference.

I like small and light - sounds like my scooter lol.

Can anyone tell me if they fixed the leaking coolant problem I've read so much about when searching for reliability on this model?

Your best bet might be browsing some Reddit or g310r forums and see. That’s usually where the latest updates come from. Dealers will probably gaslight the issue if it’s a big problem

Where are you at ???

Bought in 2018 still runs like a brand new very good bike

What about gear shifting? is that smooth

Yes, very smooth. It’s a great overall experience. It just doesn’t have as much power as it’s Japanese competitors is the only thing.

Honda CB 300r not exactly a speedster, loses to 310, bmw has 3 year warranty vs 1 yr from japanese brands. Also India has made bikes for many years, royal enfield for example. @@BlackRiverRider

Very good points.

Indian cities really don't need more than 70mph, that's way too much.

I don’t think a 300 is too much anywhere to be honest. Top speed is fairly irrelevant on the street in my experience. It’s more about acceleration/torque. This bike is great for city riding.
