INDIA: The TVS OMC RR310 race bike set the new record for the fastest lap around Chang International Circuit. The bike is an evolution of the road-spec Apache RR310. It was used by all racers in the inaugural edition of the TVS Asia One Make Championship.

The race bike was able to achieve a remarkable top speed of 211.3 km/h, which was 9 km/h faster than the bike’s previous record for a 310cc bike. TVS became the first Indian manufacturer to do so on a worldwide scale by hosting the first Asia One Championship, putting it on the map of international motorsports.

The record-breaking run was made possible by the significant modifications that were made to the bike. In addition to adjusting the bike’s suspension and engine braking characteristics, modifications to the internal engine proved critical in the bike’s performance.

Additionally, the bike was able to achieve its best lap time of 1:50.850 at the Chang International Circuit in Thailand thanks to the aforementioned top speed.
