Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Does KTM 125 Duke worthy of money as in this price range we get 150cc or 200 cc bikes? Actually I am confused between Duke 125 and Gixxer SF 150?
  • Not answer this is my question if u get duke 125 in 1.40 or something than why did u not got another high cc power bike in same price
  • Gixxer gives additional power with decent mileage.
Q. Which is better bike Duke 200 or Duke 125?
  • Both are completely different from each other.. As they both built on same platform and use of same parts the handling is similar.. If need power blindly go for duke 200 it is the best revving engine in the low end... Need a mileage with ktm looks then go for Duke 125... If your on budget & planning for duke 125 instead go for the Pulsar 200 NS it makes more sense then buying of same priced duke 125
  • Duke 200 is the best if you need the power.. duke 125 isn't the best in performance ... to make it simple Duke 200 gives you good low end power with avg mileage of 28-33 kmpl sometimes 35kmpl if you are not hard on throttle... Duke 125 doesn't have such power but has the ktm DNA and dynamics as it was built on same duke 200 platform but due to high low cc you'll getting a good mileage of 45kmpl
  • If you want performance Duke 200 is the one.But if mileage concerns you aswell its better to opt for Duke 125. Looks wise both are dashing and palatable eye candy.

    125 Duke adrenaline 

    A buddy got a new KTM 125 Duke­ bike. It's so much fun to ride around town! Of the 125cc motorcycle­s, it's one of the sportiest options. Pe­rfect for learning to ride or going through the­ city. It picks up speed really fast and turns corne­rs great. The only issue is that it won't go supe­r fast on highways. But it's not too costly and it's a zippy, exciting ride!

    I bought an mt 15 2 years 

    I bought an mt 15 2 years ago.The best thing about this bike is the handling, Especially considering i live in aizawl, With having to make turns on sharp corners daily, Other bikes usually feel too stiff after owning an mt 15.However, The seat is a bit too uncomfortable and even more so for the passenger.Being the narcissist that i am, I could care less what my passenger thought.But with a baby on the way, I must bid my farewell to this bike.It's the first new bike i've owned and it has been my baby.I am sad to see it go, And i can confidently say, I've fell in love but it is also leaving me heartbroken, Since response must come first.

    Best Bike 

    This bike stands out for its exceptional style, particularly the headlights that resemble two eyes, giving it an awesome appearance. With a mileage of 30 to 35 and impressive engine performance, it's a winner. While the seat might be a bit short, which is common for sports bikes, it's manageable. Plus, it's incredibly easy to maneuver.
