My own experience of riding ktm duke 200 for

6 months ago by Abhishek Upadhyay2,526 views

First of all, it was the bike I wanted for 4 years, finally bought it in February 2021, and my riding experience with duke 250 is incomparable, I did 2 long rides so far in different terrains but this bike never gave me any stress.. It's an eye-catching machine for sure.. Maintenance cost is not so high, it'll cost you around 3k per servicing if nothing goes majorly wrong with the machine.. Pros - brakes are the major pros I noticed, whether you're on hill roads or slippery roads brakes never fail to do their job. I'll give 10 on 10 to the brakes.. Cons - mileage could be better, and tuning should be adjustable.. Lastly handle this machine responsibly, with great power comes great responsibility.. Happy riding

I use my Duke 200 for weekend rides only. I ride it safely and at a healthy rpm (4k - 6k). I tried the top speed test just one time after the first service and noticed the handle wobble.
Other than that power is decent, torque is excellent, and an absolute attention grabber. The seat is too hard for long rides. The vibrations at the handlebar are pretty high which has resulted in the hand going numb multiple times.
Apart from that, so far so Good.

Okay so I purchased my Tarzan (duke200 bs 4) in September 2017 and it was my dream. I can’t even explain how tough it was for me for owning this bike although it wasn’t that much expensive as compared to other competitors such as the Himalayan and Apache 310 no offense they are also good machines I was only keen on my Duke 200. I came from a middle class family so everything was tough nevertheless from after owning it to 2023 it has been 6 years and i explored plethora of beautiful destinations of Uttrakhand such as Harshit valley, Kartik Swami temple , Chandrashila, Badhani Taal , Khet Parwat , Auli which all are in the hill state of uttrakhand so you can guess how is the road conditions here and even almost all over Himanchal as well my Tarzan never dispointed me he was always there for me and now it is a unspeakable relationship between us that how we are the witness of the adventure the thrill the pace and the moksha after reaching the top of the mountains and last but not least the affection of our pair on the other hand if i talk about the fuel efficiency bill it’s pretty good easily i got 35 to 45 everything so i’m totally satisfied with Tarzan although if i talk about looks so as i mentioned i was a fan the looks of duke is outstanding the shape edge of tank and the riding posture of Duke is always up to mark the comfort but the rear seat is not comfortable at all for long ride pillion rider always complain it’s very hard feels like siting on the rock anyways if we talk about balancing the kick of leaning and the confidence on the corner is always appreciated by riders moreover if i talk about maintenance cost I don't know about other service center but if i talk about Mayur Bajaj KTM Dehradun the servicing charges are literally very appropriate and the price of parts are also good apart from it the rear break liver is very sensitive i must say it’s all aluminum literally i changed 7 livers even if i’m talking about cons i must wants to admit it that im also having problems with few more things such as fuse box , light adjustment and heat radiator but let it go because bikes are all about thrill where my tarzan is wining so i’m happy with it off road and on road whatever it is duke 200 can beat the best in the game.
Overall I will always appreciate everyone who is going to buy Duke go ahead bro if you’re reading this make memories with it on the journey of this life you won’t regret.
Thanks @bikewale

4Ktm duke 200 review after 10 months. 2 months ago by Vinay Kumar

It's most exciting while purchasing a bike and it will take 1 month or less time to deliver the bike as per the availability. The riding experience is very very good. It's looking very sporty and the performance is like the devil on the road. It can go as speed as a car. It has dual abs on both brakes so it is very safe. Its good things are very much good as per looks and it is good for college students and youth. The engine is also a plus point. Sitting is good for local rides. It has cons like we will get back pain if we ride for long distances. Mileage is also one of the drawbacks. As per total experience people who are looking for a sporty bike and who can afford huge money on fuel and maintenance costs they can bike. The people who are looking for a bike with decent features and good mileage refer other bikes in the market. Thank you.

KYT NZ Race Helmet: Road Use Review

26 April 2023

Vikrant Singh

The KYT NZ Race has daily commute written all over it. So, that’s what I did. I used it on my daily commute on a scooter, a street bike, and even an on / off-roader to see if it makes for an acceptable everyday companion.
