New KTM 200 Duke BS6 Review Image Gallery

We recently rode the new KTM 200 Duke BS6 at Bajaj’s test track in Chakan, Pune to find out how much of a difference the new update has made. While you can read the report in our expert reviews section, here are a few detailed images of the motorcycle for you to ogle at.  

KTM has given the 200 Duke a makeover eight years after it was introduced in India. It gets a sharp styling inspired from the bigger 1290 SuperDuke R that is available in international markets.  

This includes aggressive tank extensions on the 13.5-litre fuel tank and an inverted triangle headlamp with LED DRL up front. At the rear, the 200 Duke gets a split-seat setup and an LED tail lamp.  

All of the new 200 Duke’s bodywork sits on a new split trellis frame. It has also gained 11kg of weight over the previous model and tips the scale at 159kg. Nevertheless, as we found out, the bike feels even more nimble and precise in its handling.  

Powering the motorcycle is a 199, single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine that is BS6-compliant. While the motor continues to produce 24.7bhp and 19.3Nm; similar to the BS4 model, it feels toned down. However, the bike has lesser vibrations and is smoother than before.  

Suspension hardware upfront is slightly different with the inverted forks providing 142mm of travel. The rear continues with a 10-step adjustable monoshock. On the other hand, braking has been upgraded with a dual-channel ABS. 

All of these upgrades have made the new 200 Duke dearer by Rs 10,000. It retails at Rs 1.72 lakhs (ex-showroom, India). In terms of competition, the bike goes up against the Bajaj Pulsar NS200 and the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V.
