KTM has introduced the latest generation of the 125 Duke in Europe. Duke 125 is the lightest bike in the Duke range and has been given new updates for 2024. The new upgrades are related to the cosmetic, mechanical, and feature front.
New features and design
KTM Duke 125 comes with a new LED headlight along with a chiselled fuel tank. There is a split seat with the rear subframe exposed. The new KTM Duke 125 is offered in two paint schemes: – blue with orange and blue with black.
The new KTM 125 Duke has a 125cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that produces 14.75bhp at 11.5Nm. It is linked to a six-speed gearbox and nestled in a steel trellis frame. The setup is suspended on WP Apex USD front forks and an offset monoshock. Its brakes include a 320mm front and a 230mm rear disc with switchable dual-channel ABS. The 2024 KTM 125 Duke rides on 17-inch wheels wrapped in Michelin Road 5 tyres.
The features listed on the smallest Duke include LED illumination, a TFT with smartphone connectivity for turn--turn navigation and media control, as well as supermoto ABS. However, KTM is likely to offer the India-based model with an LCD dash and MRF tyres, similar to the new 250 Duke. This would help the brand mitigate the cost. The 2024 KTM 125 Duke is priced at GBP 4,899 (approximately Rs. 5.16 lakh sans taxes) in Europe.
