    Checked this out when I went to book the Duke 250 days ago. You get 14 bhp for 2.3 lakhs OTR which is a joke! That's paired with huge tyres which the engine can't handle. Don't know why KTM is doing this. May be they want to test how stupid the Indian customers really are. No one in their right mind would pay so much for so little performance. Shame on those who would.

    Tips for other riders

    Fresh oil helps maintain engine performance and longevity. So always change your oil after 3000 or 3500 km. Periodically check and clean the air filter. A clean filter enhances airflow, optimizing the engine's efficiency. Replace it if necessary, following the maintenance schedule. Always check the break and disc for your safety.

  • Ktm rc 125 best in all segment yes. Know why!

    1 year ago


    Abhi Pratap

    I bought a KTM rc 125cc bike as my first sports bike. I find it worth investing in this brand. I loved sports bikes with aesthetic looks and good mileage. Under a 2lac budget, it's the best sports option for crowded cities, so I bought it.
    The pickup of the bike is so good, the seats and overall posture and driving experience of this bike while driving are more comfortable than other bikes in the same price segment I have driven.
    The looks and feel of the bike are great and it feels costlier than actually it is. The average mileage in my city is around 32-34kmpl which is very good for a daily user therefore it can be used for daily purposes as the running cost is less.
    Servicing is easy and affordable. But maintenance is somewhat hard as you need to go smoothly with the bike. Little things can put scratches on it. And it's a little bit heavy so the parking space should be even. So many service centers are easily available in the city.
    Talking overall you should buy this if you like sports bikes and have a budget of approx 2lac. You can use it as your primary option for daily use. As running cost is low and the bike is fast.
    But if you are into some rough job like field work then you need to think first because rough handling can cause damage to the bike and body. So maintenance is hard. But I loved my bike and I would say it's all in one. Good mileage, comfortable seating, easy servicing, under budget, low running cost. If you can do good care of it you should buy it.

  • Dream bike

    10 weeks ago


    Sanju Pujari

    I saw a KTM bike in 2014 on the street and from then I had a dream to buy one. It was really a dream come true moment when bought it in 2019 as a gift for my brother.
    As a safety, I took KTM RC 125 and the expectations with the performance and looks were wonderful. Riding the bike feels so sporty especially when you ride it on the highway at the speed of 100+km/h.

  • Way too Costly

    1 year ago


    Jerry

    Instead of buying RC125, it's better to go for RC200, Suzuki Gixxer 150 or the best Yamaha R15. This bike is way too costly and the new Ferring seems a bit uncool. The pillion height has increased as well. Talking about mileage it's okay but won't be able to take this bike for a longer ride.

  • Shitty bike I have ever own!

    20 weeks ago


    Nirmalya Saha

    Pathetic experience in every situation!
    After my Pulsar F250, I also buy this for a sporty look and daily commute. Ooh, man!!! This bike gives me a 28-32 kmpl average in the city! But 50% bigger engine my Pulsar 250 gives me 33-38 kmpl in the city! (overtake city traffic is very difficult, so every time I drop a gear and full throttle helps me overtake the traffic it causes this bike to has very very low mileage! I regret my decision to purchase this bike. This bike has no purpose!!! Not a daily city commuter, not a fun-to-ride machine, not a top-end killer, not a value-for-money option, and no initial power to overtake the city (TVS raider has better acceleration in the city compared to this shit!).
    This is only for poor KTM lovers bike, who can't afford Duke 250 or rc200 or 390! But no sense to buy this bike. Also, this bike's resale value is very very pathetic!!!
    I recently sold a 5-month-old bike (4,600km ridden) for 1.4 lakh rupees only!! :(

    In city traffic alwase use 1st and 2nd gear and full throttle in traffic for better overtaking (then milage will dropped to 26-30 kmpl) And use castrol power one engine oil, iridium spark plug and performance air filter for better acceleration.

    Tips for other riders

    Fresh oil helps maintain engine performance and longevity. So always change your oil after 3000 or 3500 km. Periodically check and clean the air filter. A clean filter enhances airflow, optimizing the engine's efficiency. Replace it if necessary, following the maintenance schedule. Always check the break and disc for your safety.

  • Ktm rc 125 best in all segment yes. Know why!

    1 year ago


    Abhi Pratap

    I bought a KTM rc 125cc bike as my first sports bike. I find it worth investing in this brand. I loved sports bikes with aesthetic looks and good mileage. Under a 2lac budget, it's the best sports option for crowded cities, so I bought it.
    The pickup of the bike is so good, the seats and overall posture and driving experience of this bike while driving are more comfortable than other bikes in the same price segment I have driven.
    The looks and feel of the bike are great and it feels costlier than actually it is. The average mileage in my city is around 32-34kmpl which is very good for a daily user therefore it can be used for daily purposes as the running cost is less.
    Servicing is easy and affordable. But maintenance is somewhat hard as you need to go smoothly with the bike. Little things can put scratches on it. And it's a little bit heavy so the parking space should be even. So many service centers are easily available in the city.
    Talking overall you should buy this if you like sports bikes and have a budget of approx 2lac. You can use it as your primary option for daily use. As running cost is low and the bike is fast.
    But if you are into some rough job like field work then you need to think first because rough handling can cause damage to the bike and body. So maintenance is hard. But I loved my bike and I would say it's all in one. Good mileage, comfortable seating, easy servicing, under budget, low running cost. If you can do good care of it you should buy it.

  • Dream bike

    Sanju Pujari

    I saw a KTM bike in 2014 on the street and from then I had a dream to buy one. It was really a dream come true moment when bought it in 2019 as a gift for my brother.
    As a safety, I took KTM RC 125 and the expectations with the performance and looks were wonderful. Riding the bike feels so sporty especially when you ride it on the highway at the speed of 100+km/h.

  • Way too Costly

    1 year ago


    Jerry

    Instead of buying RC125, it's better to go for RC200, Suzuki Gixxer 150 or the best Yamaha R15. This bike is way too costly and the new Ferring seems a bit uncool. The pillion height has increased as well. Talking about mileage it's okay but won't be able to take this bike for a longer ride.

  • Shitty bike I have ever own!

    20 weeks ago


    Nirmalya Saha

    Pathetic experience in every situation!
    After my Pulsar F250, I also buy this for a sporty look and daily commute. Ooh, man!!! This bike gives me a 28-32 kmpl average in the city! But 50% bigger engine my Pulsar 250 gives me 33-38 kmpl in the city! (overtake city traffic is very difficult, so every time I drop a gear and full throttle helps me overtake the traffic it causes this bike to has very very low mileage! I regret my decision to purchase this bike. This bike has no purpose!!! Not a daily city commuter, not a fun-to-ride machine, not a top-end killer, not a value-for-money option, and no initial power to overtake the city (TVS raider has better acceleration in the city compared to this shit!).
    This is only for poor KTM lovers bike, who can't afford Duke 250 or rc200 or 390! But no sense to buy this bike. Also, this bike's resale value is very very pathetic!!!
    I recently sold a 5-month-old bike (4,600km ridden) for 1.4 lakh rupees only!! :(

    In city traffic alwase use 1st and 2nd gear and full throttle in traffic for better overtaking (then milage will dropped to 26-30 kmpl) And use castrol power one engine oil, iridium spark plug and performance air filter for better acceleration.

  • For those with more money than sense

    3 years ago


    Abhijith

    Checked this out when I went to book the Duke 250 days ago. You get 14 bhp for 2.3 lakhs OTR which is a joke! That's paired with huge tyres which the engine can't handle. Don't know why KTM is doing this. May be they want to test how stupid the Indian customers really are. No one in their right mind would pay so much for so little performance. Shame on those who would.
