What's New?
KTM has launched the all-new 390 Duke and 250 Duke in India. Both motorcycles feature new mechanical components including a trellis frame, as well as an upgraded suspension and brake setup. The 390 also gets a newly developed 399 cc engine that now makes marginally more power and torque than before. However, while the new 390 Duke, priced at Rs 3.11 lakh is Rs 13,000 more expensive than the previous generation model, the latest 250 Duke is priced almost at par with its predecessor at Rs 2.39 lakh. (all prices, ex-showroom, Delhi).
Visually, both motorcycles have evolved from their previous-gen counterparts. The two bikes have a new split-style headlamp, which is flanked by DRLs on the 390 Duke. Other design elements include new alloy wheels, visually similar to the ones on the RC390, a more muscular-looking fuel tank and a split seat setup. There's an all-new 5-inch TFT digital instrument cluster with features like - Bluetooth connectivity, music control, incoming call alerts and turn-by-turn navigation.
In terms of cycle parts, both motorcycles are suspended by a 43 mm WP Apex front fork, which is compression and rebound adjustable on the 390 Duke. The 250 Duke features a rear monoshock setup which is preload adjustable, while in the 390 Duke, it can also be adjusted for rebound. The motorcycles are built on a trellis frame and get an aluminium swingarm at the rear. Braking duties are handled by a new 320 mm front disc and a 240 mm rear disc with dual-channel, cornering and Supermoto ABS on both bikes.
As stated earlier, the new KTM 390 Duke gets an all-new single-cylinder, liquid-cooled 399 cc engine, which is higher in displacement than its predecessor. The powertrain puts out a peak power output of 44 bhp and 39 Nm of peak torque. The 250 Duke on the other hand, gets a 249 cc powertrain, that churns out 30 bhp and 25 Nm of peak torque. Both motorcycles have a 6-speed gearbox. The 390 Duke will also feature a quick-shifter and slipper clutch mechanism along with launch control, and three ride modes- Street, Rain and Track.

The 2024 KTM 250 Duke receives significant upgrades, making it an even more attractive option in the 250cc segment. With its price remaining unchanged at ₹2.39 lakh (ex-showroom), the bike features improved performance, updated design, and additional features. The KTM 250 Duke continues to be the highest-selling 250cc bike in India, known for its thrilling performance and sharp handling..
The design of the 2024 KTM 250 Duke takes cues from its larger sibling, the 390 Duke, with sharp, aggressive styling that reflects the bike's sporty nature. The new headlight unit, similar to the 390 Duke, and the exaggerated fuel tank extensions enhance its aggressive stance. Built on a new trellis frame with a die-cast aluminum sub-frame, the bike's structural rigidity is improved, ensuring better handling. Additionally, the rider and pillion seats are redesigned for better comfort, though more padding could enhance long-ride comfort.
The 250 Duke now comes with a 5-inch LCD screen that includes Bluetooth connectivity. It provides clear, legible readouts, and the inclusion of ride-by-wire technology enhances throttle control. Another standout feature is the Supermoto ABS, allowing the rear ABS to be disengaged for more control during aggressive riding or sliding.
Pros
- Updated 249 cc engine with 30.57 bhp and 25 Nm of torque, providing a smooth and engaging ride
- Significant weight reduction of 8 kg, improving agility and handling
- Advanced features like a 5-inch LCD screen, Bluetooth connectivity, ride-by-wire, and quick-shifter
Cons
- Vibrations noticeable between 4500 to 5500 rpm, particularly during highway cruising
- Stiff ride quality despite increased suspension travel, which may be uncomfortable on rough roads
- Pillion seat could benefit from better padding for longer rides
Verdict
The KTM 250 Duke gets design inspired by the KTM 1290 Super Duke. The motorcycle also gets a dual-channel supermoto ABS mode. The 250 Duke continues to be powered by a BS6 compliant 248.8 cc single-cylinder engine which makes 30.50 bhp of power at 9250 rpm and 25 Nm of peak torque at 7250 rpm. In terms of rivals, it goes up against the Suzuki Gixxer 250 and its sibling, the Husqvarna 250 Twins. It is one of best options in the 250 cc naked sport motorcycles.

- Bad service.5.0ABS BS VI(Petrol)The Bike is good but wait till you give it for service and you will find parts missing, this is because no service center can deliver the bike on time, they rapidly change parts and types.By MarcelloPosted on: Apr 26, 2021 12:23 PM180
- Pocket rocket!!!5.0ABS BS VI(Petrol)I think after owning it and riding it for more than 10,000km and a year i can give some honest opinion about my experience with this beast of a machine. The way this engine produces power is just phenomenal, it begs to rev the nuts out of it, though it has a mediocre low end torque it does it's job well and after 3500 RPM it just goes JET mode. As much as going quick the breaking is great too the bigger disc in the front and ABS gives a sure-footed stopping power, the bike pushes you to go faster in the corners it has great tyres (metzler sportec M5) awesome tuned suspension and great chassis. All in all a great enthusiast motorcycle, if not purchasing atleast ride it once.By Alankar KadwarPosted on: Dec 27, 2021 01:50 AM180

With components shared from either models and a downsized 250 cc engine derived from the 390, is the 250 Duke the most balanced and logical bike from KTM India's range? We took to Bajaj Auto's test track to find that out.1 min read
