This is definitely a duel between two top-class street bikes that look very similar, but different in some ways. Firstly, the price for the KTM 200 Duke is slightly higher than that of the Bajaj Pulsar 200 NS. As for speed, the Bajaj Pulsar takes the lead due to its suave conduct and excellent agility. The engines for both bikes are smooth and always stimulating their riders to pull them high into their power bands. They both enjoy well subjective, progressive clutches, and six- speed, one-down five-up gearboxes that shift slickly drawn by toe shift levers. The Bajaj Pulsar utilizes taller gear ratios where the KTM 200 Duke goes with short gearing. These two bikes come with firm ride quality. The KTM 200 Duke is unquestionably sportier with its strong point being its sharper handling.

It comes with wide bars that help the front end impart an effortless and more confident and lighter feel. These bikes also love to corner on rails, although the Duke holds the advantages due to its softer-compound MRF radial tires. There are differences between these two bikes, but neither of them has surpassed the other with a significant margin so we can say that both bikes are better in their own unique ways.
