TVS ’82 Series Collection Celebrates Racing Heritage

Based on the RR 310, RTR 310, RTX 300 and Ronin, the special collection pays tribute to TVS Racing’s journey that began in 1982

TVS Motor Company has found an interesting way to revisit its racing history. At EICMA 2026, the manufacturer gave the ’82 Series Collection its first global showing, bringing four familiar motorcycles back into the spotlight with a distinct concept treatment.

The collection comprises special interpretations of the RR 310, RTR 310, RTX 300 and Ronin. The name is a reference to 1982, when TVS began its motorsport journey. Rather than being new production models, these are one-off concept builds created to celebrate the company’s racing heritage and the influence it has had on its road-going motorcycles.
Each one takes a different direction, which makes the collection more interesting than a set of four motorcycles wearing anniversary graphics.

’82 Series RR 310

The RR 310 is perhaps the most natural fit for this collection. As TVS’ fully faired sports motorcycle, it has a direct connection with the company’s racing programme. The special concept draws inspiration from TVS Racing’s competitive achievements and highlights the relationship between its track experience and production sports bikes.

The RTR 310 concept focuses on the roadster’s electronic rider aids. TVS specifically highlights cornering ABS, traction control and wheelie control, all managed through a six-axis inertial measurement unit. These systems are already part of the RTR 310’s technology package, but their inclusion in the concept underlines how racing-derived electronics have gradually made their way into motorcycles meant for everyday use.

’82 Series RTX 300: Taking the racing spirit off-road

The RTX 300 represents the adventure touring side of the collection. TVS describes it as a motorcycle designed for exploration, with the ability to handle trails while remaining approachable on regular roads.

Its inclusion is significant because it shows that the company’s motorsport influence isn’t limited to track-focused machines. Adventure riding and off-road development are also part of that wider engineering experience.

’82 Series Ronin 250

The fourth motorcycle is perhaps the most intriguing. Called the Ronin 250, this concept blends scrambler and roadster influences, combining a classic design direction with an emphasis on urban agility. The 250 cc name is worth noting, but this should not be mistaken for confirmation of a new production Ronin variant. TVS has presented it specifically as part of the one-off collection.

TVS has made it clear that all four motorcycles are concept builds intended for display. There are no production plans announced for the ’82 Series models. The collection is ultimately a reminder of how long TVS has been involved in competitive motorcycling, and how that experience feeds into its wider product development. The four concepts cover very different riding styles, but share the same starting point: a racing journey that began more than four decades ago.
