Pros Cons of KTM 125 Duke

Pros

  • Sharp Styling
  • Premium components and build
  • Dynamic handling

Cons

  • Pricey for its performance
  • Stiff suspension
  • Rivals offer better value

Verdict

The 125 Duke offers similar road presence, fantastic road manners and a suitably entertaining personality for young riders to hone their skills to graduate to bigger and more performance oriented bikes. And being a 125 cc, it may well be passed off as a relatively 'safe' option, at least while convincing the parent. Considering the KTM 200 Duke is at least ₹ 30,000 more expensive, the 125 Duke certainly offers a relatively affordable and accessible entry into the KTM family.

Pros Cons Royal Enfield Interceptor 650

Pros

  • Beautiful looking motorcycle
  • Smooth, torquey engine
  • Good performance

Cons

  • Vibrations at top end
  • Awkward footpeg positioning
  • Heavy motorcycle

Verdict

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 is possibly all the bike you ever need till the time you stick to tarmac. It looks good. The quality of fit and finish is commendable and the performance is solid too. The engine is one of the finest we have seen in recent times, on a middleweight motorcycle. Yes! It has a couple of chinks in its armour, but nothing that could be a deal-breaker. It works wonderfully as a daily ride and will be good company on your occasional highway jaunts too.
