2018 BMW G310GS Dyno

Horsepower and torque numbers from BMW’s 313cc motor

The 2018 BMW G310GS has a starting price of $5,695 and comes in three color options. BMW claims the 313cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder four-stroke motor gets 71 mpg. We had one in racing red for testing and we ran it on the dyno to get the peak horsepower and torque out of the adventure machine.

Running fourth-gear pulls on the dyno we reached a peak horsepower of 29.53 at 9,490 rpm and 18.74 pound-feet of torque at 7,500 rpm.
