KTM 125 Duke has started arriving in majority of the dealerships, ready to get tested by the new batch of KTM owners. The motorcycle is available in three mouth watering shades and visually, finding a difference between Duke 200 and 125 is limited to the sticker pattern only. The 124.7cc engine makes this Duke the most powerful machine of its segment, producing 14.5 PS of power and shaming certain 150-160cc bikes of India. The engine is good for 12 Nm of torque. KTM dealerships will see increased footfall with this single model, priced at INR 1.18 lakh (ex-showroom). The on-road price for KTM 125 Duke is INR 1.40 lakh in Mumbai. KTM is currently having more than 350 dealerships in India. No other performance brand has such large base for buyers, especially considering the fact that buyers from hilly regions do not need to travel more due to KTM’s extensive reach. The powerful engine of Duke 390 is great for every style of riding and that made KTM popular with highway riders. KTM 125 is focused on city riding with a compact engine and 148 kg of weight. The mileage may not cross 45 kmpl mark due to high weight and impressively broad 150-section rear tyre. The massive tyre width is not even available in 250cc bikes from other brands.

Most Popular Answers for 125 Duke
Why there is no launch plans for KTM 125 Duke in India?
2022-12-29 06:10:26 AM
There are no plans for any 125 cc performance motorcycle including 125 Duke in India. This is because the bikes available here form various manufacturers are already localized in their 150 cc and 200 cc versions. Bringing the 125 cc bikes won't makes sense as they use same premium parts as the bigger ones and won't justify with a price tag that is nearly matching the Indian made bikes with around 300 cc of engine capacity. These are actually good for market with licensing restrictions as 125 cc bikes won't need a license to drive but here in India, the same license helps you drive a 100 cc commuter and 2300 cc cruiser at the same time.

KTM Duke is currently available in 200 and 390 variants only. The 125 cc Duke is available in selected markets where license restricts certain age group of people from driving big engine bikes.

What is the on-road price of KTM 125 Duke?
2022-12-29 06:04:53 AM
The on-road price of the KTM Duke 125 is not available simply because KTM never plans to launch this motorcycle in India. The reasons behind this are: (i) There won’t be enough buyers. Not many people will be interested in buying a KTM DUKE 125 when a Pulsar 220F is available at a same or a lesser price. (ii) Globally, the 125cc bikes are learner motorcycles. You don’t need a licence to ride them. However, in India you need a licence to even ride a 100cc motorcycle. (iii) The mileage of KTM DUKE 125 is even lower than the Duke 200. Indian buyers are very conscious about the mileage. Not many people would be interested in buying a 125cc bike that just returns 25-27 KMPL.
What is the exact launch date for KTM 125 Duke and RC 125 in India?
2022-12-29 06:02:51 AM
Unfortunately, KTM has no plans to launch the Duke 125 and the RC 125 in India. Possible reasons behind this could be: 1. Not enough customers for either motorcycle because they'll be priced quite high compared to other 125cc motorcycles. Rajiv Bajaj has said "Bring me one customer who'll buy the D125 and I'll launch it in India right away!" 2. Mileage is a big concern for Indian customers. Both the 125 cc bikes by KTM have reported a mileage of just 25-27 KMPL. This is because KTM engines are tuned for performance, and neglect other factors such as fuel efficiency. 3. The 125cc offerings by KTM are available in the European market only because the learner limit is 125cc and/or 15 Hp.
What is the mileage of KTM 125 Duke?
2022-12-29 05:44:53 AM
The KTM Duke 125 is not available in India as KTM has launched only the 200 and 390 series of Duke in India. It is said to return a mileage of 30 kmpl and the engine is capable of taking the little Duke to 120 kmph. It is water cooled and we expect it to be around INR 90,000 if ever launched.
