G310 Engine Failures (# Confirmed Under); Share Your Valve Clearance Outcomes

Circling again to shut this out. Between right here and an analogous thread I had on www.g310rforum.com (which has G310GS sub discussion board), solely seven confirmed engine failures have been reported. That is out of lots of of hundreds of the 310 engines among the many 310GS, 310R, and the TVS Apache. By that outcome, engine failures appear to be an excessive uncommon occasion.

Within the meantime, I stored driving my 2022 G310GS and I am not babying it. I now have 24,686 miles on it. This included a 2022 journey from NC to the BMW Nationwide Rally in Missouri to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, through the NEBDR and again to NC; a 2023 journey from NC that included the MABDR, the PABDR-X, the Atlantic Spur of the Trans America Path (TAT) from the Appalachia Mountains to Cape Hatteras, NC, and the BMW Nationwide Rally at Richmond, VA; and a second 2023 journey on the TAT from Scorching Springs, NC, to Port Orford, OR, to La Crescent, MN, with the BHBDR-X added alongside the best way and a enjoyable curvy highway route again to NC. I had Eurosport in Mills River, NC, (previously in Asheville) do the 24K service and so they discovered nothing to recommend I can not maintain going.

For 2024, I am bored with the good plains, so I’ll cheat by trailering the bike to begin from both my buddy’s home in Colorado Springs, CO, or my cousin’s home in Prescott Metropolis, AZ. From a type of two begins, I’ll the Redmond, OR, BMW Nationwide Rally through the Continental Divide Path and/or as many BDRs as I can slot in. After that, I could go additional if there is a respectable climate window for Alaska or I will do extra BDRs as I make my manner again.

Maintain having enjoyable. I positive am.
