- Two new colours are available
- A new silver shade and a revised Ebony Black colour scheme
- India launch likely soon
KTM has unveiled new colours for the 250 Duke internationally, and it is likely to come to India soon. The colours include a new silver shade and a slightly revised Ebony Black. Here’s everything you need to know:
The new silver shade looks elegant, with a dark grey KTM logo on the tank extensions. The Austrian bikemaker has kept the orange in this package to a minimum, with a tiny highlight at the edge of the tank extensions. The colour scheme reminds us of the popular Silver Metallic colour that was available in the previous generation Duke 250.
The second colour scheme is a revised version of the Ebony Black colour, currently available in India. The updated version features an orange finish on the headlight, giving it a fang-like look. The update makes a minor change, but overall has a major impact and dials up the aggression a bit more.
Other than the new colours, the bike remains mechanically unchanged. It is still powered by the same 249.7cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine, producing 30.5bhp and 25Nm. The 250 Duke is built on a trellis frame and is suspended on a WP Apex inverted fork and monoshock. The braking hardware is the same 320mm front and 240mm rear disc setup, with Bybre callipers.
