KTM 250 Duke Summary

Price: KTM 250 Duke price for its variant - 250 Duke Standard starts at Rs. 2,25,000. The mentioned 250 Duke price is the average ex-showroom.

KTM 250 Duke is a street bike available in only 1 variant and 4 colours. The KTM 250 Duke is powered by 249.07cc BS6 engine which develops a power of 30.57 bhp and a torque of 25 Nm. With both front and rear disc brakes, KTM 250 Duke comes up with anti-locking braking system. This 250 Duke bike weighs 162.8 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 15 liters.

KTM 250 Duke received its biggest ever upgrade in 2024. This streetfighter received a lot of changes - aesthetically as well as in the performance aspects. 



KTM also completely redesigned the engine of the 250 Duke. With a newly optimised cylinder head and gearbox and a larger airbox, the 250 Duke is claimed to be more potent than before. As a result, the power and torque output numbers have also witnessed a marginal hike. Now, the 248.7cc, liquid-cooled engine of the bike produces 30.57bhp and 25Nm and continues to be mated to a six-speed gearbox. As a result of a bigger airbox, the KTM Duke 250 top speed has also gone up and can now easily do over 140kmph.



Furthermore, the cycle parts of the bike have also been altered. It is underpinned by an all-new steel trellis frame that joins an off-set mono-shock, a curved swingarm, new 17-inch alloys, and new brakes all of which are lighter to facilitate the bike with a better power-to-weight ratio. 



The feature list of the 250 Duke has got quite longer with the inclusion of a ride-by-wire throttle system, a slipper clutch, and a quick shifter. The instrument cluster is a five-inch LCD unit which is Bluetooth-enabled and offers turn-by-turn navigation. Accompanying these goodies is a new bodywork which is more similar to the flagship 1290 Super Duke than the previous model. The front fascia looks more sinister and radical, the fuel tank section is muscular with sharper extensions, and the new die-cast aluminium sub-frame makes for the tail section.



The 2024 KTM 250 Duke is available in three colours – Electronic Orange, Atlantic Blue Ceramic White.

KTM 250 Duke Review

  • Good Things

    • Overall styling is quite aggressive
    • 250cc engine offers good performance
    • Riding and handling abilities are quite nice
  • Could be Better

    • Overall NVH could have been better
    • Low-end torque is quite less

BikeWale's Take

The new 250 Duke offers a combination of aspirational styling, great performance and modern features. The motorcycle is easy to ride and also has good handling abilities. Plus, with Bajaj’s support, it has great after-sales support. But the overall NVH of the bike could have been bit better.

      KTM 250 Duke

      2 weeks ago


      Tridebesh Chatterjee

      KTM has a thing for sharp aggressive bikes, but with this Duke 250, that has been tuned down just a bit, enough to not make it scary at the touch of the throttle, but still has enough kick that will bring an evil grin on your face when willing to go fast. The bike will become several times better after the 1000 km mark and the first service. You'll have fun on highways, you'll smile while doing overtakes and you'll laugh like a maniac in the twisties. Also the mileage is surprisingly great, I have got 40+ indicated on a couple of morning rides. For 3000kms, it has been pretty reliable except for one thing, the side stand sensor, make sure if you ever start receiving a false reading, take it to the service center. This issue arrived in my bike from the first week, took it to the service center at the month mark, they did some magic and never have I ever received even a false signal for once. Other than that the machine is pretty reliable, it gave me the courage to go on solo rides as well. Awesome machine

      Shankar

      I have been driving this new KTM Duke 250 for a month and I feel like it's too big compared to the old one due to its components TFT is not so good it's satisfactory and the quick shifter is the main reason to buy in this price range and that performance is same but I feel like it's dragging between 2 & 3 gares overall the bike is superb.

      It has a better performance than NS 200. Comfort is also good. Look-wise old ktm is better. Milliege is more than 35km/l and On a highway, it gives 40km/l. Worth for money. The bike has a radiator it's protects the engine too hot. The wheel is also too big. It has a double-disc brake.ABS feature gives the best experience on the bike.
