TVS Apache RTR 310 vs Yezdi Adventure

The new TVS Apache RTR 310 is not just a stripped-down RR 310. It boasts enough changes to have its distinctive personality. Besides all the mechanical changes, if you look at the number of features it has, it can clearly put much bigger bikes to shame in terms of technology.

We tested the TVS Apache RTR 310 in the urban jungle of Bangkok and at the Thailand Circuit Motorsport Complex, and here’s what we found out.

The Adventure is the most expensive Yezdi one can buy in India, and the reason for this is the segment it belongs to. The adventure touring segment in the country is booming, and many young Indians want to get out of their mundane life and explore the breathtaking scenery and rural parts of the country. To do this, there’s a need for a motorcycle that can take care of the comfort and luggage and also allow the rider to go to places that standard bikes can’t go. Such bikes don’t come cheap as they are engineered to take a lot of beatings from Mother Nature. Plus, this bike also has to be an all-rounder because, like it or not, weekdays are when the bike will be used as a commuter, and on the weekends, it should transform into an explorer.

There’s a new rival to the segment leader the Royal Enfield Himalayan – it is called the Yezdi Adventure and it is the most expensive Yezdi motorcycle on sale in India currently. It is priced at Rs 2.48 lakh on-road Mumbai and that makes little affordable than the Himalayan.
