Re: TVS & Petronas announce 'Petronas TVS Racing Team'

While it’s good for Indian racing scene it does
raise a few question about their partnership with Sherco

TVS used Sherco 450’s in Dakar and even in Indian rallies

Is there going to be a in-house developed mill for replacing those ?

Will TVS support the Dakar Riders as external sponsor or they will enter team with in house bike ?

Anyone else hopeful for a Petronas-branded road version of the RR310 or even the NTorq? Being a Mercedes F1 fan, I might snap one up on general principle!

A Petronas livery seems like a no brainer for the RR 310 BTO version. That will definitely be in the offing.

As an owner, I'm looking forward to the Petronas synthetic oil, should be better than the TVS-Bharat Petroleum one they're peddling. One can't use outside oil either considering the 5 year warranty.

This partnership is for indian level races an rally events only.

AFAIK TVS acted as a external sponsor only for Harith Noah, other riders are marked as sherco factory team, instead of TVS Sherco in this years Dakar.

Also TVS entering ARRC One Make Championship with differently spec'd RR310. Link for more details
