The bike feels alive, especially in the mid to high rev range, and the lightweight chassis adds to the nimble, responsive feel. It’s perfect for both city rides and spirited weekend blasts. Design & Build: Sharp lines, bold graphics, and a trellis frame give the Duke a distinct streetfighter look. The LED headlight and TFT display add a touch of premium, while the new generation brings improved ergonomics and a more aggressive stance.
