But now it is known that the motorcycle can be bought at the same discount in January as well. The offer will run till this month. As a result, the 250 Duke model can be brought home for Rs 2.25 lakh (ex-showroom). At this rate, Duke can be considered a value-for-money product.
KTM 250 Duke: Specifications and Features
Notably, the KTM 250 Duke received significant upgrades last year. The bike now has a sharp front design inspired from the 390 Duke. The new-style headlamps feature boomerang-shaped LED DRLs, which add a touch of modernity. The bike is powered by a 248 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 31 horsepower and 25 Nm of torque. It is mated to a six-speed gearbox.
The Duke 250 comes with a 5.0-inch full-color TFT display. It supports turn-by-turn navigation, headset pairing, and smartphone connectivity via the KTM Connect app. Riders can choose between two display modes – Street and Track. Besides, four-way menu switch, switchable ABS, and bidirectional quickshifter are notable among other features.
This bike has up-sound down fork and monoshock for suspension. The Duke runs on 17-inch alloy wheels. Braking is handled by a 320mm front disc and a 240mm rear disc. The KTM 250 Duke rivals the TVS Apache RTR 310 and the Bajaj Dominar 250 in the Indian market.
