Hi,
I bought the KTM Duke 200 on 6th February, 2013, almost nine months since I bought the Beast and yet every time I ride the rush of Epinephrine just feels awesome to say the least. The Ready to Race on display as you turn the switch ON, only provokes you to push limits.
This bike is sheer pleasure to ride and head turner if you like attention. Buy it if you do not care about the average because this beast is all about 3 Things Looks, Good looks and very good looks. It is undoubtedly the best looking Bike.Its the Best Bike for city rides. maneuvering is very easy as the Bike is light and smooth.
The Electronic display is very informative unlike any other bike but during the day in sunlight, it gets difficult to read. The orange display is very soothing to a KTM fan. The bike heats up when in traffic, feels like you are on top of a gas chamber. The Bike is prone to slipping on wet surfaces as the tyres do not meet your expectations.
The Horn is a big turn off in terms of its squeaky sound like Chris Gayle Talking: p(Apology Chris fans). Uncomfortable seating for the Pillion Rider. With a Pillion, the rider wont enjoy the ride unless the pillion is a girl as the pillion rider needs to cling on to the Rider.
Average again is on the down side with maximum that I have got is 38 kms.(Bad but not too bad). Parts are expensive and less Service Stations across the city but you can give that a miss as KTM has just come in.
Over all a good bike, if you’re looking for a bike which is Uncommon, Powerful and not very Expensive with the BEST LOOKS. Buy it and RIDE IN STYLE. Keep Duking!
