KTM is introducing a new LED headlight version for its popular 200 Duke model, likely priced Rs 4,000 higher than the current model. This addition enhances its value and aligns it with the 250 and 390 Duke variants. It may also be a strategy to clear existing inventory before the launch of updated new-gen Dukes later this year.

KTM Duke 200 Review

23 Jun, 2023 08:56 AM

Detailed Review by Maxabout Team

Overview

The BS6-compliant model of the KTM Duke 200 was launched in the Indian markets back in January 2020. Currently, the bike is available at a price tag of INR 1.93 lakh (ex-showroom). It is approximately Rs 23,000 pricier when compared to its BS4 model. The bike gets revised styling along with the engine upgrade to meet the more stringent BS6 emission norms. It gets a complete design change when compared to the last-gen model.

KTM Duke 200 Design & Style

Well, talking about the design, the bike gets a complete design change which is really fresh to see. It gets 1290 Super Duke R-inspired styling and is based on the design language of Duke 250. The headlamp design of the bike is similar to that of Duke 250. Talking about the headlamp, it gets an all-new angular LED headlight setup that comes mated to LED DRLs. It gets a split seat design and rides on a lightweight steel trellis frame.

Borrowing the design traits from its elder siblings, the 2023 KTM Duke 200 has received an aggressively fresh design which uses a bolted subframe. In addition to that, the new model of the 200cc Duke has got an updated rear sub-frame, new split seats, and a new fuel tank, which has been borrowed from the KTM Duke 250. The instrument console of the motorcycle has not been updated and it continues to feature the same all-digital console as seen on the BS4 model of the bike.

KTM Duke 200 Engine & Gearbox

The 2023 model of the KTM Duke 200 comes powered with a BS6-compliant 199.5cc, single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine that produces the same 25 HP of maximum power along with 19.3 Nm of peak torque. The engine remains mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The gearbox of the bike is now smoother in comparison to the BS4 model. With the BS6 engine upgrade, the bike gets an extra catalytic converter to reduce the sound and to comply with the emission norms. The BS6-compliant model of the bike contributes towards lesser pollution compared to its BS4 model. Talking about the exhaust system, It continues to feature an underbelly exhaust which is completely blacked out now.

KTM Duke 200 Instrument Console

The New KTM Duke 390 gets a well-equipped instrument console which will provide you with all the relevant information. It displays a gear indicator, real-time fuel efficiency, average fuel efficiency, distance to empty, service indicator, clock, and side-stand warning light. The switchgear of the bike also looks nice compared to the one available on the previous model.

KTM Duke 200 Dimensions, Mileage & Top Speed

The MY2023 KTM Duke 200 measures 2002 mm in length, 873 mm in width, and 1274 mm in height. It has a seat height of 822 mm alongside a wheelbase of 1357 mm. It now has a kerb weight of 159 kgs while the fuel tank capacity of the bike has been increased from 10.2 litres to 13.4 litres. It gets a ground clearance of 155 mm, which is quite good considering the sporty design. The mileage of the bike stands around 35-40 kmpl and the top-speed of the BS6-compliant Duke 200 is 142 kmph (approximate).

KTM Duke 200 Brakes & Suspension

The 2023 model of the KTM Duke 200 rides on a lightweight split steel trellis frame with bolt-on subframe just like the Duke 250 and Duke 390. The stopping power of the bike comes from a large 300mm front disc and a 230mm rear disc. It is mated to dual-channel ABS as standard. The suspension duties of the bike are handled by USD WP telescopic forks at the front and a rear WP mono-shock unit with a dedicated cover to prevent the dust from accumulating there. The naked motorcycle rides on a 110/70-R17 tubeless tyre at the front and a 150/60-R17 tubeless tyre at the rear.

KTM Duke 200 Colours & Graphics

The New KTM Duke 200 is available in two paint schemes: Electronic orange (Black/white), and Dark Silver Metallic (Grey/orange). The 1290 Super Duke R-inspired design looks super cool in both colour options. The Electronic Orange paint scheme of the bike has an orange tank with black decals, while the Dark Silver Metallic paint scheme has a Grey tank with black decals.

Verdict and Competitors of KTM Duke 200

The 2023 KTM Duke 200 gets a significant hike in its price but it is justifiable considering the updates it has gone through. Not only the engine upgrade, the bike also gets a revised styling. The handling of the bike is now more precise as the handlebar of the bike has been moved closer to the rider. The bike provides the utmost balance while riding in city traffic or hitting the streets. The engine of the bike is more refined while the braking system has also been improved. Coming to the rivals, it competes in the Indian market with the likes of Bajaj Pulsar NS200, TVS Apache RTR 200 4V, Suzuki Gixxer 250, Hero Xtreme 200R, Yamaha FZS 25, and the Honda Hornet 200.

What will be the major changes for 2017 model KTM Duke 200 or I should go for present model (2016)..?
01 August 2023 07:43

You can go for the present KTM 200 Duke as KTM may not launch the 2017 model in the country anytime soon. The revision will include the addition of ABS to the bike while everything else is expected to be kept the same. The motorcycle is a very good option for everyday riding as it comes with an upright stance as well as a peppy 199.5 cc engine with an urge of acceleration. It currently sells for INR 1,43,000.

 

Can anyone tell me that Benelli TNT 25 is better than KTM Duke 200 and Honda CBR250R?
01 August 2023 07:43

Benelli TNT 25 is the best option out of all the above considered bikes. It comes with a refined 249cc engine producing 28.16 BHP and 21.61 Nm of torque. It gets a comfortable seat height of 780 mm and gets a huge 17 liter fuel tank. It is not as aggressive as 200 Duke and performs much better than the Honda CBR250R. The design is quiet appealing and it comes with a price tag of INR 1,68,000.

 

When will KTM Duke 200 ABS be launched in India?
29 December 2022 05:59
KTM 200 Duke would soon be available with ABS as the CEO of KTM has announced that all the bikes above 125cc would be loaded with safety features like ABS. The motorcycle currently retails for INR 1,43,000 whereas the newcomer would get a significant increase in its price tag. It produces 24.65 BHP @ 10,000 rpm and 19.2 NM @ 8,000 rpm. The engine is a 199.5cc, liquid cooled and fuel injected motor. The KTM 200 Duke is suitable for street riding purposes whereas RC series is more oriented towards track riding.

Best 200cc Bike in India

Rahul PS | One year ago
helpful 1

Currently i bought a Duke 200 BS6 2 weeks ago and its a good decision to buy. I am driving between 55 and 65 and getting a mileage of 40.1 km/l currently which is a good one in this segment. The headlight visibility is good. Initial acceleration is also good. I recommend for Duke 200 and above version to use premium petrol as the compression rate is 11.3. Overall experience, I am totally satisfied with the bike. As on the cons side the ground clearance is really now especially when you are carrying an pillion rider, there is an high chance of hitting the lower part in the bumper.

Worst bike when it comes to maintainance

Sagar - | 3 years ago
helpful 3

This review is based on personal experience. KTM Duke 200 is One of the worst bikes when it comes to maintenance. I feel I have spent the same amount on petrol and maintenance. For 15,000km Petrol = 36,000 (bike mileage 30km/LTR) Petrol price - 75 (AVG) Maintenance Service = 3 times x 3500 = 10500 (min) Fork oil seal replacement= 2500 Starter motor stator coil replacement =3500 Chain sprocket replacement= 3500 Oil seal replacement = 1500 Start on button replacement = 1200 Fuel sensor replacement= 1000 Clutch wire replacement = 200 Chain lubrication For every 500kms = 100 I.e for 15,000kms = 3000 Seat cover (because seat started cracking) = 800 Both tires = 7000 Total = 34,700 I can even show bill for all the things I have mentioned above. Bike is not designed for Indian roads. It's just an overpriced low quality bike.

KTM has built a good bike, but it's too aggressive look and can't hold more interest for long time. Good bike for superbike beginners

Best Features: TFT display, led headlamp, orange color, look, sound,

Pros: Value for money, power, pickup, design, metzler tyres

Cons: Seat height, not comfortable, low fuel tank, poor customer service (not all the places).

1st of its kind !!

Atiqur Rahman | 7 years ago

Had waited long, but ultimately had launched in India !! By going what's in the paper, it seems like it won't fall short in performance and will be a good investment!! Also not to mention, the waiting period for the Duke 390 is too bit longer as that of Duke 250 & 200,which will be available from 8th of March.

Best Features: TFT info screen, Slipper Clutch, Ride By Wire, LED Headlamps, Adjustable suspension arms !!

Pros: Overhauling design from the previous generation Duke 390. Looks will remain appealing for the coming 4 to 5 years.

Cons: The waiting period of the Duke 390 is more then 1 month after booking too. Price increases in different states, so have to go deep into pockets!!

I have a 2 year old ktm buke. Worst bike when it comes to maintenance. Spare parts are very costly. . One or the other spare part is gone in every 2months. Any spare part replacement will cost you anywhere between 1500 - 8000 and service will cost 3500-6000.
If you still wanna buy the bike then be ready to pay more to spares then you pay for petrol.

KTM duke max torque is 19.2 nm at 8000rpm where as karizma r new model torque is 19.35 nm at just 6000 rpm ,so how can we say ktm is better than karizma in pick up ?ktm has max power of 24.2hp at 10000rpm .karizma power is 19.85 hp at just 7500rpm .it is not safty to run bike beyond 100kmph .with karizma r we can beat 100kmph at the earlier stage than ktm or any other bike of 225 cc sector.customers normally goes at 80 to 110kmph .we can achiev that range of speed easily at low rpm with less effort on karizma r .we dont need speed of 140 and above .if we want it is better to go for KAR/CAR .Max speed of ktm is 138 max speed of karizma r is 126. it is 12kmph more.even its design speed is 126 it goes beyond that up to 140kmph .unfortunately hero compny launched new model and forced to close the production due to poor sales since new model is rejected by commuterse.sports sports so what about bikes of 10 to 30 lakhs?

The review about the " Comfort while Driving ", is just a Blunt Lie. This bike is for sure not at all comfortable. The funniest thing about the review made in this website for comfort level for most of the Indian bike, is that they say " This bike provides optimum comfort the rider". LOL.
One thing needs to be considered on all the bikes are safety and comfort, which will have a direct affect on the riders handling capability.

The comfortable bikes launched in India is Hero Xtreme, Hunk, Karisma R, Honda CBR250R, Bajaj avenger, Royal Enfield bullet series, suzuki gs150r, yamaha fazer and Honda Stunner.

The bikes that are either stiff or uncomfortable are Pulsar 150, 180 ( pulsar 220 is some what ok, i have tested with my cousins bike ), TVS bikes, Yamaha FZ16, R15, Kawasaki ninja 250cc (bike is heavy, u can feel the weight in the handle bar) and KTM 200 Duke.

It is hard to forget the uncomfortable seat position, even bike has the best pickup and handling compared to other 180cc and 200 cc indian bikes, due to my high expectation on this bike, as it is an imported model.

Biker
10 years ago

Had a test run last year end.

cons - The seat position is extremely sporty, making the posture uncomfortable, and gives lot of strain and pain to the back, and it is hard to remain on the bike after 30 mins. Small pillion seat. Engine heats up too much after 30 mins.

Pros - The only thing that is best is the pickup, handling, nice cornering and perfect grunt that makes this bike to rev very well.

I wonder how come a high quality bike has a minus point in seating comfort and posture.

Indian guys are really ignorant to talk about Top speed for Off road bike and then compare with other race bikes....Ha Ha Ha......Only Indians have a peculiar kind of creative attitute by checking top speed by Drag racing with different types of bikes(KTM Duke 200 Vs Yamaha R15, Pulsar 220 ...etc - Check Youtube)
KTM Duke is an Off road bike(people who have not seen Off road dirt bike racing, check Youtube) and people compete this bike with sports bike like Yamaha R15, FZ series, Honda CBR.............well kind of funny with these kind of comments people make of after comparison. A true racer will use the right kind of bike for that particular type of Race.
Well why should we have bikes to just show off, why not enjoy its perfromance and its features. Those who have KTM bikes, have a fun ride. Those who want to compare KTM with other bikes, make a reasonable comparison.

200 Duke: Lightness rediscovered - or the 125 Duke for grown-ups. Maximum riding fun, powerful propulsion and optimum user value thanks to thoroughbred motorcycle technology. Featherweight chassis with high-quality components and first-class brakes. And dynamic cornering fun guaranteed with the surprisingly full-bodied and lively power of the cultivated, new four-stroke single-cylinder with injection, six-speed transmission and low fuel consumption. Precisely what you'd expect from a genuine KTM.

manikanta

the bike is extremely new for Indians. Yes, we have seen bikes like Yamaha FZ before which also carry the naked looks but the premium touch and appeal of this bike makes it one of its kinds. Starting from its front, the bike has very slim headlight with no visor. The front mudguard is also short and simple in size but its big telescopic forks, disk plate and wider tyre makes it look macho. The bike has very small body panels. The tank is big and uplifted and sports Duke on it. The rear mudguard is very sporty and along with its fatty tyre, the bike can hold your attention easily. Small tail light is very simple and its black coloured grab rails and clear lens indicators also complement the overall styling.

Instrument Console of KTM 200 Duke

KTM promotes the instrument console of Duke as cockpit which features a digital speedometer, odometer, trip meter and fuel gauge. This cockpit also has some LED indicators. The bike uses orange coloured back light in its instrument console. The instrument console is not easily readable and apart from its speedometer, you will have to search for other things in it as it compromises on space.

Engine and Gearbox of KTM 200 Duke

KTM 200 Duke uses a single-cylinder, liquid- cooled 200cc engine. This 4-stroke, DOHC engine is very powerful as it churns out a maximum power output of 25 bhp at 10000 rpm. The torque output of this engine is 19.2 Nm which is available at 8000 rpm. The bike is equipped with a six-speed manual gearbox with one gear down and five gears up-shift pattern.

Acceleration and Performance

This is the best engine ever used in any street bike in India. The high refinement of this DOHC engine allows you to rev this bike as hard as possible. The gear ratios are well matched with this engine which makes this bike more energetic. The bike does 0-100km/hour in 9.2 seconds. The crispy gear ratios allow you to move quickly through city traffic without wasting much time. The bike can easily go pass the speed of 136km/hr. The throttle response is very impressive. The power to weight ratio of this bike is incredible due to its lightweight. This bike performs best after 4000rpm and till 10000rpm; there is nothing which will disturb you. The torque production is also satisfactory which reduces frequent gear shifting. The bike easily picks up in any gear and even with a pillion rider; you can easily overtake most of the bikes on highways. It’s a perfect option for highway cruising. Even if you take this bike off road, the high amount of torque is available very early which confirms you a pleasant ride. Take it on any terrain and you will be surprised to see the power delivery of this bike. Its short gear ratios, light weight and responsive engine make it perfect for those who know and like to perform stunts. The bike has something for everyone.

KTM 200 Duke Mileage

The fuel efficiency of this engine ranges from 28-35km/ltr in city conditions. One can expect these figures to increase by 2-3km/ltr on highways. Despite its power packed performance, these mileage figures are quite respectable for a bike of this size.

Comfort while Driving KTM 200 Duke

The seat of 200 Duke is very comfortable and can hold you for a long time. Foot pegs are placed far behind in order to give your knees a perfect angle to roll back so that your thighs firmly hold the tank of the bike. The wide handles bar is also very convenient and you can firmly hold it with your palm. The shoulders feel much relaxed and even in city traffic, it’s not an issue to use this bike.

Safety Features and Storage Space

200 Duke has a very powerful headlight which enables you to get a clear view of road at nights. There is no storage space in this bike.

Suspension and Braking

200 Duke has a very capable suspension system with high-quality upside-down fork at its front and mono shock absorber at its back. Big discs of 280mm at its front and 230mm at its back confirms you a safe ride with complete control on this bike.

Many people will be judging this bike according to its looks, performance etc, but trust me once you get a hold of this monster you no longer control it, it will grab control over your wrists. this beast sure does love revving up. the pillion is quite small i agree, but what the heck, a single setback isnt enough to counter the tons of advantages. the mileage i get from this beast it 30-35kmpl and be sure to use 91 grade octane petrol as prescribed by ktm for better performance. Once you get on the bike, it wont let you get of soon. LOVE IT!!!!!!1
