Good pricing, would have been good if they had kept around 1.9X, just makes it looks more attractive.

Priced a bit too close to the RC 390?

The Apache looks sexy in comparison, but the RC just owns it in specs.

They might come up with the more highway oriented version without the fairings and that would cost around what you said.

That would atleast be 2 years away, what they would want to do is to make sure, that this sells and is supported well.

Any confirmation on availability?

But isn't BMW introducing the naked version of the same? G310R alongwith GS?

Re: TVS Akula 310 unveiled

It is overpriced.

It should have been 20k lesser minimum. I have been holding my rc390 booking for this, now that it isnt going to be any faster or as equipped(slipper clutch, ride by wire, better tyre etc) or vfm, i am going for the ktm.

Good luck TVS, selling this bike!

34 bhp on a 170 kg bike, doesnt make much difference in power to weight ratio to the 180kg dominar 400. Infact dominar makes more sense with a larger tank, slipper clutch, LED lamps and ABS at almost 50k lesser cost OTR

Lack of slipper clutch, ride by wire, met z, 300mm brakes. The RC390 now looks even more impressive with pricing.Going to be very tough for someone like me trying to get the TVS knowing the RC has all those at a marginally higher price.

Also am I the only one seeing pulsar in the front, CBR250 in the sides and R3/R15 everywhere else

Yes and expect it to be priced atleast at 3.XX Ex showroom, seeing how they have priced this.

And that would compete against what? Dominar 400? Looks to be 30k more than the Dominar at that price!

Priced too closed to the RC 390. My opinion as well. Might sell though - as it looks sexy and might perform well too. But this is not the RC killer everyone expected, for this pricing.

Less than the 10hp compared to the RC too.
