TVS Genuine Steering Races Kit (Steering Cone Set) for Apache RR 310 – Part No. NB320160

Restore smooth, accurate steering feel on your TVS Apache RR 310 with the TVS Genuine Steering Races Kit – NB320160. This is the OEM steering-head bearing/race kit designed for correct fit and long service life, helping eliminate common issues like notchiness, handlebar wobble, and play in the front end when your steering bearings are worn.

The steering races (steering cone / steering head bearing races) are critical chassis components that support your motorcycle’s front-end load and allow the handlebar and fork assembly to rotate smoothly. When these races wear out, riders typically notice symptoms such as a “notchy” centre feel, instability at speed, wobble under deceleration, or looseness in the steering head. For a performance motorcycle like the TVS Apache RR 310, precise steering feedback is non-negotiable—especially if you ride fast, corner hard, or do highway/track-style runs.

TVS Genuine Steering Races Kit NB320160 is the correct OEM kit intended for the Apache RR 310 platform. Genuine TVS parts are engineered to match factory tolerances and seating surfaces, which is essential for a press-fit component like steering races. Local/duplicate bearing kits often vary in hardness, finishing, and dimensional accuracy—leading to premature wear, noise, or incorrect preload that can compromise handling.

This kit is supplied as a complete TVS kit (as per catalogue kit contents) to help ensure the steering head assembly is renewed properly rather than piecemeal replacement. For best results, replacement should be done with correct tools (bearing/race drivers) and proper grease packing and preload setting.

At underthehood.co.in, we focus on genuine TVS spares in original packing, safe dispatch, and fitment support—so you can order confidently by part number NB320160.
