    Make : KTM
    Model : 125 Duke
    We Like
    • India's first premium 125
    • Superb dynamics
    • Authentic KTM experience
    We Don't Like
    • Performance doesn't match price
    • Brakes could be a little stronger
    • Weight could be lower

    UPDATE: The KTM 125 Duke has received a price hike of Rs 6,835. It now costs Rs 1.25 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)

    It’s been around two decades since we considered a motorcycle in the 125cc space to be genuinely sporty. These bikes in our market start at around 150cc, but KTM has chosen to take a different approach. Its recently launched 125 Duke is essentially a 200 Duke with a 125cc heart, and is the very same one that KTM developed for the light motorcycle license category (A1) in the United Kingdom. We head out to the streets to see how well the new KTM does its job.
