THE DUKE ATTITUDE STARTS HERE
The KTM 125 DUKE may be the entry-level bike of the range, but it isn't here to play games. It's built with the same attitude as the bigger bikes - and it shows. It's no holds barred with this urban warrior, complete with an LED headlight and TFT display. This 4-stroke single cylinder has fuel-injection and a 6-speed transmission to deliver class-leading performance with low fuel consumption to keep you riding longer.
