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.

    Love for the design and different look 

    I love the bike just because of look and mileage and people mostly buy for this bike for the design and look and is also affordable but is not very powerful bike. This bike is great for the middle class boy for the regular use and the gearbox is very good and the seating position is very comfortable and comes with the lot more space but is not a value for money bike. Comfort is totally enhance in this bike and can go for a long rides with this bike and comes with the single channel ABS.

    The bike's lightweight frame and responsive handli 

    I had my KTM 125 Duke for about a year now and it has been quite the nimble companion on city streets. With its 125 cc engine that puts out 14.5 HP, it makes zipping through traffic a breeze. The bike's lightweight frame and responsive handling make it a joy to ride in the urban jungle. I also love the sharp, aggressive styling that turns heads wherever I go.However, it's not all smooth riding. The KTM 125 Duke struggles on highways. The engine feels strained above 80 km/h and long rides can become tiring due to the lack of power.

    bringing space to you 

    Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 is an amazingly planned two-wheeler model, which has made to my bucket list ever since its launch. Amazing part is that it has a 5 star rating in safety and security terms. It is so convenient in terms of weight and size which is beautifully planned to designed from the exterior to the interior, inside out. This two wheeler falls under the price range of budget on an average basis. I highly recommend this to anyone who is as crazy about decent bikes as I am and planning on buying one for them.

    Awesome Bike 

    I recently bought a Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 and I'm impressed with it. This is the most underrated bike. It's a great bike for the price, and it offers a great combination of performance, style, and affordability. The engine is smooth and refined, and it offers good performance throughout the rev range. The bike can reach a top speed of over 140 km/h, but it's also easy to ride at slower speeds. The handling is also excellent, and the bike corners well. The ride quality is good, but it can be a bit stiff on rough roads. The Gixxer SF 250 is also a fuel-efficient bike. I've been getting around 38 km/l in real-world conditions, which is great for both city and highway riding. The bike comes with a variety of features, including a fully digital instrument cluster, an LED headlight, and a split seat. It also has a dual-channel ABS. Overall, I'm very happy with the Suzuki Gixxer SF 250. It's a great bike for anyone looking for a sporty and affordable motorcycle. It offers good performance, Handling, Ride quality, and fuel efficiency. It's also packed with features. It looks great. The design is sporty and aggressive, and the black color is very sleek.

    Blue colour 

    Well i am the 1st buyer of sf 250 motogp in my state.There is no better bike than sf 250 in the quarter litre sportbike segment.This bike is solely responsible for uprooting honda cbr from the indian market.As i have owned a cbr 250 also, I can easily say sf 250 is much better.The engine is smoother n more refined, Looks much better than cbr n ktm rcs which look too bad after the bs6 update.Only r15 v3 is close to the looks but v3 is ridiculously expensive as a 150 cc bike.Coming to the performance, It is gonna be 2 yrs now from the date of purchase n this bike never had any major or minor breakdown apart from the battery issue in lockdown.It can be easily used for your daily city rides.With a ground clearance of 165 mm, It absorbs the bumps smoothly.N on a track or even on highway, you can touch 150 easily on the speedometer.I have even gone to the beach side of my state riding it for 4 hrs.N have not felt any pain.With the stock tyres of mrf revz, It is the best bike as rcs also come with the same stock tyre now after the bs6 update n r15 v3 n even ninja 300 have mrf zappers as stock tyres which will last for hardly 2 yrs.The only bike better than it is rr 310 which has become a dreambike after the bs6 update but the only reason i didnt buy it was the unavailability of the blue colour.Finally, I must conclude that my biggest satisfaction came when my mom could sit on the sf 250 comfortably that she could never do on the cbr for 6 yrs.

    Best Performance 

    As a proud owner of this bike with 25,000 km experience, it excels in the 250 segment. Powerful engine, 35-38 kmpl in the city, 40+ kmpl on the highway at 70-85 km/hr. Vibrations beyond 100 km/hr. Fun and easy to handle, stable, quality build. Paint on the fuel tank is scratch-prone. Good front braking, average rear. Service costs 1500-1700 rupees. Headlight is good but not the best on the highway. Comfortable for short rides, but wrist discomfort on long rides. Pillion comfort up to 5 feet 7 inches.
