Overview

The smallest pocket rocket
The smallest pocket rocket
  • The KTM 125 Duke is one of the most expensive motorcycles in the 125cc segment in India
  • The smallest pocket rocket from the Austrian manufacturer commands a price tag which is sure to burn a hole in your pocket

Design

Pure Orange Blooded

  • Gets a sharp halogen headlamp which is surrounded by LED DRLs giving the bike a sporty look
  • The overall design is typically KTM and looks very aggressive
  • More mature riders may not appreciate the aggressive design and bright colours

Performance & Mileage

Unlike any other 125cc
Unlike any other 125cc
  • Has a very linear and easy to manage power delivery
  • A smooth 125cc engine which sounds delightful and has a high pitch note which sounds similar to that of a two-stroke
  • Lower mileage when compared to other 125cc motorcycles
  • The gearing is tall which means you will have to rev the engine hard to extract any usable performance

Handling

Like any other KTM
Like any other KTM
  • Gets the same chassis as the bigger Dukes which allows the motorcycle to handle beautifully
  • A very agile motorcycle that’s eager to turn into corners at the slightest inputs
  • The tyres provide good feedback while cornering and provide great confidence into the rider
  • The potent chassis feels rather overkill given the low output figures of the engine

Ride Quality

A sporty affair

Comfort & Storage

Not to everyone’s taste

  • The flat-wide handlebar and the rear set footpegs give you a commanding posture to attack any corner
  • The seat is roomy and well cushioned which makes short and long journeys pleasurable
  • The lower body posture might feel a bit cramped for tall riders
  • The aggressive riding position might not be appreciated by regular commuters

Features

Gets the essentials
Gets the essentials
  • Still gets the LCD instrument cluster which was found on the first generation of Dukes
  • Gets single-channel ABS which increases the safety quotient
  • The instrument cluster feels outdated and could do with an update

Expert's Conclusion
