TVS Apache RR 310S Chased by 2017 KTM Duke 390 @ 120+ kmph

TVS Apache RR 310S was recently spotted testing in its camouflaged version. The motorcycle was recently chased on a 2017 KTM 390 Duke when it was being ridden at around 125 kmph on a highway. The Duke owner (Purush D Man) was riding at over 100 kmph when he spots a camouflaged bike and enters a chase to find out that it was not just one but two Apache RR 310S being ridden on the same road. The video shows how effectively the motorcycle cruises at 120+ kmph and even offers a glimpse of its front LED lights. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5-lG5epVPg

A recent report from GaddiWaadi claims that TVS recently registered the Apache RR 310S name for its Akula 310 with the authorities. The name could help them easily differentiate RR from the naked RTR series, further helping them name future products under the same two series, depending on their body type. TVS Apache RR 310S would be a first of its kind product from the Indian manufacturer, carrying premium features and rivaling the Bajaj Dominar in its engine segment. TVS-Apache-RR-310S-TradeMark
