TVS rolls out update for Apache RTR 310 vibration, throttle lag issue

The Apache RTR 310 is a naked version of the RR 310, and shares its underpinnings with the BMW G 310 R.

TVS has rolled out an update for the Apache RTR 310 to resolve certain issues like vibrations and throttle lag. The updates were installed during the Carecraft camp - a special service camp conducted by the bike maker.

BHPian curiousbolt reports that he had been experiencing vibrations on the handlebar and seat of his RTR 310. When rolling off the throttle, it used to take around 0.5 seconds for the engine rpm to drop, while the Quickshifter used to turn off randomly. 

During the Carecraft camp, TVS replaced the seat cushions and foam placed on the fuel tank. The stock handlebar damper was replaced with a slightly heavier one to absorb vibrations better.

An ECU software update was done to resolve the lag during throttle roll-off. The update is also said to have improved the overall throttle response.

The Quickshifter cable routing was changed. The aftermarket knuckle guards had to be removed as it was partially pressing the clutch lever, causing the Quickshifter to malfunction.

The Apache RTR 310 is a naked version of the RR 310. It is powered by a 312.12cc, single-cylinder engine that develops 35.11 BHP @ 9,700 rpm and 28.7 Nm @ 6,650 rpm. The engine is mated with a 6-speed gearbox via a bi-directional quick-shifter.
