nice bike price so Nice. The Duke 250 is KTM’s aggressive-styled, performance-oriented naked bike that bridges the gap between beginner-friendly machines and more aggressive middleweights. It packs a punchy 249 cc single-cylinder engine, sharp handling, and modern features — all wrapped in KTM’s signature street fighting design language.

Great performance! The 250cc engine is smooth with a punchy mid-range. Getting 30–35 kmpl city/highway.1Pros: Sharp handling, premium build, and segment-best features like the Quickshifter+ and TFT. Cons: Minor1low-end vibrations and firm seats. Service is efficient but slightly pricey. Best for short highway rides.
