Question 1

Q. If we have to choose between Pulsar 220F and KTM Duke 200 which should we choose?

Pulsar 220F Reason is I have exchanged my pulsar 220F with my friends KTM Duke 200 for few days and I feel the power and torque is more in KTM and yet safety factor is little less compared to 220F

Q. Please suggest me to buy a new bike because I am confused about taking the Duke 200 or Royal Enfield Classic 350 and my height is 5.56 and weigh 65 kg and i am 30 please tell me which is suitable bike.

As per your height, you might face some issue on 200 Duke as it has a seat height of 810 mm, but you will be able to ride both the bikes. if you are looking for a fun to ride bike and want better power and handling, you may go for KTM 200 Duke. On the other hand, Royal Enfield Classic 350 would be good option if you want relaxed ergonomics and like calm riding. You may both the bikes according to their variants too.

Question 3

Q. Which is better for City ride Duke 200 or Duke 250? My daily riding will be of 20Km with an average speed of 50kmph. My height is 5'8" and age is 18 year.

Answer

If you are a beginner level rider, then Duke200 will be the best choice for you. This 200cc machine is no joke and this has some serious pulling power given it is a 200cc engine. the 200 is 30k cheaper than its elder sibling the duke250.i will surely say duke250 will give better mileage when you ride it at 6000 rpm max smoothly. this is because of tuning in the ECU. the power is higher on rpm above 6000. so you need not worry about mileage because both will provide the same in the end.since the duke200 comes with an underbelly exhaust you will love the exhaust sound (i suppose). duke 200 seat height is 20mm lower than 250 which favors you. If you like modifying your machine then you can use that extra 30k to modify your 200cc like adding a fog lamp or changing the mirrors to the bar end which adds to the already sharp and stunning look than just buying a 250cc duke. So you can buy 200cc duke, enjoy your riding and then upgrade to a much higher cc machine like the duke 390 or duke 790 in the future. ENJOY SAFE RIDING:)

Answer

Hey, I hope you're doing well. About the question, Duke 200 would be a better choice as far as I think. If you are just starting to ride(seriously), Duke 200 is a very good bike. And one more thing the mileage on the Duke 200 is better than 250 by a slight margin but if you look at it in a long run, it makes a huge difference. So, I would suggest you to go for Duke 200 but it'll be your call after all. Happy and Safe Riding.

Answer

For your requirement, both bikes will serve the purpose, Duke 200 will give you better mileage due to the smaller engine, however the Duke 250 has a lighter slipper clutch which is more comfortable in bumper to bumper traffic. Duke 250 has slightly more comfortable seat too

Question 4

Q. Which one is the best KTM 200 Duke or KTM 250 Duke in terms of mileage and service cost?

Answer

The Duke 200 will have better mileage because of the smaller engine, service cost should be similar, however since Duke 200 has a fiber tank versus the metal tank on duke 250, Duke 200 should be cheaper to repair if you crash the bike or have an accident.

Answer

Service cost is somewhat similar, 200 is economical and there is not much difference in power output, mileage is obviously more on 200.

Answer

City use mailage low Service cost duke 200Highway use touring.. Mailage 30 or below 30 top end good sliper clutch

Question 5

Q. What is difference between ABS and STD?

Answer

Anti lock braking system or ABS was been there since a very long time back but not so popular in India mainly because of the price,but was a very useful safety features. In ABS, when the brake was suddenly pressed, the wheel will not lock up and your tyres will not skid.This is very useful during rain or on muddy surfaces where traction are low.The sensor present on the wheel itself detect any sudden changes in wheel speed or if the wheel is going to lose traction.It will help you by engaging and disengaging brakes automatically so you can stop safely without skidding. In non abs, braking was more risky at high speeds and stopping distance is much longer then an abs version. The only difference in a pulsar220 is that in an ABS version there will be ABS sensor at the front disc and real wheel lift protection was there which is much safer.It is a single channel abs because of price concern but is more then enough.

Answer

ABS DOESN'T LETS TYRE GET LOCKED IN SUDDEN BRAKING IN ANY SPEED

Answer

ABS - Antilock Braking System.STD - Standard.ABS works well in every condition.STD also works well but there are chances of getting brake seized, specially the front one.Bikes which can conquer above 100km/hr needs ABS.

Question 6

Q. I am 6ft and i am confused which bike is best for me suggest me one bike ktm duke 200 bs4 or R15v3 and my weight is 64kg?

Answer

As per your height and weight, you won't face any issue on both the bikes. The R15 v3 remains one potent small-capacity supersport for beginners. In its version 3.0 guise, it has become sharper and more focused, making it great for sport riding or track enthusiasts. However, the aggressive riding stance could cause discomfort if you intend to use the bike for daily commuting and the quality of components have also gone down. On the other hand, the design update has given the KTM 200 Duke a new lease of life. Also, the fact that the new BS6-compliant motor does not lose out on performance almost makes it feel like a win-win. That said, the substantial hike in price means it is now more expensive than larger motorcycles such as the Suzuki Gixxer 250. However, when it comes to thrills, the KTM 200 Duke delivers it in spades. You may compare both the bikes accordingly. Do take a test ride in order to clear4 you all doubts.
