Reviews of KTM 250 Duke

The best of all. This beast is made for one who loves the adrenaline that's all I can say, with reliability, handling, and power it has is amazing. Daily commuting on this bike for the past month and the experience it has given me is fabulous. Also, people's reaction to this beast is one way to look at it.

About the Reviewer

This bike is value for money.
The pickup was brilliant.
My experience is very awesome.
I suggest this bike.
The KTM 250 Duke has evolved into its third generation, and it's gotten all mean-looking. And with that, it has also matured as a motorcycle with rider aids that were previously only restricted to the 390 range. Not that the 250 Duke needs them, but it now becomes more approachable and manageable for a rider graduating from the commuter class. It’s laden with features like a bi-directional quick-shifter, dual-channel ABS with a supermoto mode, a 5-inch LCD instrument cluster with a 4-way switch cube, and then some more stuff, which we will get to in due course. While the price has gone up marginally over the Gen 2 model, the bragging rights have certainly gone up by leaps and bounds.

About the Reviewer

I am in my late 30's , I never thought to come back on 2 wheelers (Driving cars for past 15years).
Reason to buy,
1) Pure fun to ride 😁 .
2)Sharp handling and cornering.
3) Raw engine noise like someone is taking out frustration by shouting wholeheartedly.
4) A typical turbo-like noise from the engine when slowly revving throttle. (Drive turbo engine diesle car and when turbo kicks in , that kind of sound.)
5) If handling matters the most, close your eyes and buy.
6) Good build quality.
7) Want to feel the same adrenaline rush the way we use to get while riding RX100,RD350,(pulsar 150 and Karizma when it was launched in 2003).
8) Mileage is not a concern.
9) Want to relive your early motorbike days with the same enthusiasm?
10) Can not or don't want to waste money on 650cc bike purchase then maintenance cost (approx 15k per service )
11) Trust me I am 120kg and bike goes 0 to 100kmph under 5.8 seconds and with my weight, i am easily able to reach 155kmph every time I ride on Palm Beach Road, with some juice left in the engine to pull more.
12) Throttle response is amazing sharp.
13) Want to change gear without clutch (up or down both).
14) Want to know what sharp braking actually means without tumbling or losing control of machine.
15) Want colorful display with many things inside it.
16) Want to experience the difference between abs and non-abs, traction control, track mode , rain mode ,street mode , supermoto mode , sliding the bike , wheelie control , adjustable suspension f&b both, navigation display on screen , Bluetooth, phone charging type c.
Reasons not to buy ,
1) Long ride discomfortable seat.
2) Mileage i get is 20-21kmpl
3) Not able to concentrate while riding.
4) Gets distracted very easily.
5) You have sheep behaviour/mentality.
