KTM India has hiked the price of its most affordable motorcycle, the 125 Duke, yet again. Its price has now gone from Rs 1.25 lakh to Rs 1.3 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). When KTM launched the motorcycle back in November 2018, it cost Rs 1.18 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). However, the company did mention that it was just an introductory price and the subsequent hikes were expected to happen anyway. While KTM hasn’t revealed the reason behind the latest hike, it could be due to an increase in the cost of production and/or raw materials. Back in April this year, KTM increased the price of the 125 Duke by Rs 300. Ever since its launch, the baby Duke has been the most popular bike for the Austrian brand, so whether this price hike affects its sales is something we shall be keeping a keen eye on.
But now though, it has gotten really close to its rival, the Yamaha MT-15, which is only Rs 6,000 more expensive. It comes with a much more powerful engine with modern Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) technology.

Coming back to the 125 Duke, it comes in three colours: orange, white and black. The motorcycle is packed with top-spec components like a WP inverted fork, a WP rear monoshock, disc brake on both ends with a radial caliper up front, and MRF radial tyres on both ends. The feature list is quite healthy too thanks to the inclusion of a fully-digital instrument cluster and a single-channel ABS as standard. Powering the bike is a 124.7cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine which churns out 14.5PS at 9250rpm and 12Nm at 8000rpm. The engine is paired to a 6-speed transmission.

2 - Pocket Dynamo
I got this bike back in 2019 when it was launched, I was beginner so my first choice was a bike with moderate power and torque and good ride comfort. So, I went through lot of options, FZ l, Apachi 160 and 200 , Classic 350 and Duke 200. I got my eye on FZ as it was very much beginner Friendly and it was pocket friendly too. I decided to book FZ but on the same day KTM dropped this Pocket Rocket duke 125 and obviously for me it was a show stopper, without any second thought I went through the specs sheet and boy oh boy it felt just like a match made from heaven. I went to showroom the very next morning and just booked my duke 125 and after a month I got the delivery and till after after 7 long years, I have regretted for one single day. Good quality and best feeling riding this Pocket Rocket. Total in 7 year's, I have rode 51,000 kms on odo where I have only used it for ride propose and not for commute purpose. The best thing about this is the ride comfort because of the posture and ride quality. I have done Pune - hyderabad - Pune in 24 hrs with 4 hrs of sleep. I have rode on different terrains and in every seasons and it has never disappointed me in any given situation. I love riding it everyday with or without luggage. It feels fun to ride. Of course, I recommend it to every college boy with no riding experience to start their journey with this bike as it offers good amount of power and torque and would help you to be a good and safe rider with it's features. It will fall you in love with the motorcycle world and also take you to the places you thought of riding once in your collage days. It also offer mileage of 40 kmpl which is also good as a beginner. It will help you understand many concepts of motorcycle rider which will help you in future when you upgrade to a high cc.
