KTM 125cc Duke


One of the motorcycles to make a big splash at the recent Intermot Show in Cologne, Germany was the little KTM 125cc Duke.

The liquid-cooled, fuel-injected 125cc engine is reported to produce 15 horsepower-presenting an easily tamed and unintimidating motorcycle for newbies-without the reciprocal goofy looks that often accompany smaller bikes.
Aside from the notion that the new mini-Duke must be a blast to ride, the small displacement motorcycle was obviously targeting the burgeoning business in affordable transportation for daily commuters in traffic-congested cities (read: the many densely populated cities of India).
A six-speed gearbox, chain drive, and signature chromoly trellis frame of its bigger brothers, the 125 Duke strikes a much more impressive stance than its 125cc displacement would suggest.
WP suspension components provide 6.3-inches of wheel travel front and rear and Brembo developed the single disc units.

The new Duke weighs in at 282 pounds fully fuelled. The 31.9-inch seat height, although somewhat high for some, will be quite manageable with the light weight.
Attractive graphics and loud, signature KTM orange hints infuse the 125 Duke with a sense of flare.
The bike is slated for release in Europe, Latin America, Africa and Southeast Asia, with the company rumored to be considering a North American version.
