If your Apache RR 310 has started feeling jerky, noisy at the rear, or the chain has tight spots even after adjustment, it’s time to move to a proper performance-grade replacement. The Rolon NXR 264 Chain & Sprocket Kit is an OEM-spec sealed kit engineered specifically for the TVS Apache RR 310, using an R520 X-ring chain with a 17T front and 42T rear sprocket and 112 links as specified in Rolon’s own kit catalogue.
Rolon is one of India’s leading OEM chain suppliers, and this NXR 264 kit is built for sustained high-speed use, aggressive cornering and everyday commutes. The X-ring design reduces friction and helps retain lubrication longer than a standard O-ring or open chain, giving smoother power delivery, cleaner shifts and better life when maintained correctly.
At Under The Hood, we source directly from authorised Rolon distributors so you avoid fakes and “loose” assembled kits. Each kit is checked, packed securely and shipped across India, with the option to get it installed at our Varanasi studio for customers who visit in person. Pair this kit with a good chain cleaner and lube from our chain-care collection and follow our blog’s chain maintenance guide to easily cross long tours, weekend rides and daily office commutes with confidence.

Installation & Maintenance Notes
-
Always replace chain and both sprockets together to avoid accelerated wear on new parts.
-
After installing, set chain free play to 30–40 mm as per Apache RR 310 service documentation and tighten the rear axle & adjuster lock nuts to spec.
-
Use a paddock stand or centre lift for final alignment; ensure both swingarm marks are equal to keep the rear wheel straight.
-
Clean with kerosene or a good chain cleaner and then apply a quality chain lube every 450–600 km, or more often in rain/off-road conditions.
-
Avoid pressure-washing the chain up close; it can push water past the X-rings and shorten chain life.
-
After the first 200–300 km on a new kit, re-check slack and adjust once the chain beds in.
FAQs
Q1. Will the Rolon NXR 264 kit fit my TVS Apache RR 310 (BS4/BS6 / BTO variants)?
A. Yes. According to Rolon’s kit catalogue and multiple major retailers, NXR 264 is designed specifically for the Apache RR 310, with 17T/42T sprockets and a 112-link R520 sealed chain. It is suitable for all production years/BS stages of the RR 310 that retain the stock hub and gearing.
Q2. Is this better than the stock Apache RR 310 chain & sprocket kit?
A. In terms of gearing, NXR 264 matches the stock 17T/42T ratio, so your acceleration and top speed stay familiar. The benefit is that you get a fresh sealed R520 X-ring chain and new sprockets from Rolon – an OEM-grade supplier – which restores smoothness, reduces chain noise and, with proper maintenance, can last longer than a tired stock set.
Q3. Does this kit fit BMW G310R / G310GS / G310RR as well?
A. Rolon’s official catalogue lists a separate sealed kit for G310R/G310GS with 16T/40T gearing, while NXR 264 is specifically mapped to the Apache RR 310 with 17T/42T. Because of this difference, we do not advertise NXR 264 as a confirmed fit for BMW 310 models. (CHECK TEETH AND PITCH FOR BMW IT FITS BUT CHECK AND ORDER )
Q4. Is this an original Rolon kit or a local assembled chain set?
A. This is a genuine Rolon NXR 264 kit sourced from authorised distributors, the same brand supplied to major online retailers like Sap Motors and others. Under The Hood does not mix chains and sprockets from different brands or sell loose, unboxed sets.
Q5. Will this change my bike’s mileage or top speed?
A. Because NXR 264 keeps the stock 17T/42T gearing, your RR 310’s top speed and cruising RPM remain essentially the same. Any mileage change will mainly depend on riding style, chain maintenance and tyre condition rather than this kit. The smoother, more efficient sealed chain can even help maintain consistent mileage when kept clean and correctly tensioned.
