2017 KTM 390 Duke: First Ride Review

The new-for-2017 KTM 390 Duke promises to take the game forward with radical changes in design, chassis parts and features. The 390 Duke was always a sharp and mean looking motorcycle, but this is something else. The bike looks like a concept bike that has come to life. A nifty feature is MyRide which allows you to connect your smartphone to the screen via Bluetooth. You can control your phone's music functions while on the move. The new seats are both wider and longer and with the new, more compact fuel tank, you sit forward. The new riding position is sportier and more accommodating than before. The changes have added weight and the new 390 Duke is heavier by 5 kilos. What has changed significantly is the nature of the engine at low revs. It is now easier to ride the new bike in 3rd gear at speeds as low as 30kmph. There is an immediacy and more surge in power when you open the throttle. The mid-range feels even stronger thanks to ride-by-wire system. In terms of handling, the new 390 Duke feels more agile and sharper than before. It is a lot more flickable than before and easier to switch directions. The new 390 Duke is a more civilised version of the earlier 390 which in itself has evolved quite a bit since the first KTM's hit our shores. It does, however, retain that frantic demeanour, that typical KTM flavour veiled under layers of civility.

2017 Yamaha FZ25: First Ride Review

The FZ25 has garnered mixed responses, thanks in part to its rather simple-looking spec sheet. While it is upmarket in some ways, the FZ is surprisingly simple. The all-LED lights intend to dazzle the buyer with coolness. The FZ25 is powered by an air-cooled, 249cc, single-cylinder mill that makes 20.9PS of power and 20Nm of torque. Acceleration is punchy and the FZ25 is quick to get off the line thanks to the strong bottom end grunt. Fuel injection makes for a crisp throttle response and the FZ25 is quick to respond to inputs, which should help when slicing through traffic. On the whole, this is a likeable motorcycle, with its performance putting initial concerns of the FZ25 being a tad underpowered to rest. The handling package had a familiar feel, and in more ways than one, the FZ25 felt like its younger sibling. If you are looking for a 250cc naked motorcycle that’s not only good-looking and fun to ride but is also well-built and reliable, the Yamaha FZ25 should certainly be on your list.

Triumph Bonneville T100: Road Test Review

In terms of price the new Bonneville T100 sits right in between the Street Twin and the Bonneville T120. Does it also blend the easy going Street Twin’s nature with the long legged feel of the T120?

2017 KTM 250 Duke: First Ride Review

The 250 Duke was developed for South-East Asian markets specifically, but has now been launched in India as well. Its primary role is to slot in between the highly acclaimed 200 and 390 Dukes, and KTM says the 250 Duke could be a veritable upgrade for existing owners of the 200 Duke. It isn’t significantly expensive than the 200 Duke, and also distances itself significantly from the all-new 390 Duke’s pricing, which gets a lot more technology and equipment now. The 250 Duke’s design is inspired by KTM’s flagship naked, the 1290 SuperDuke R and similar to the new 390 Duke’s. The 250 Duke borrows the new chassis and higher end cycle parts from the new 390 Duke, which make it a lot more premium than the 200 Duke. On the performance front the 250 Duke uses a bored-down version of the 390 Duke’s engine, which is a 248cc, liquid-cooled single cylinder that offers 30PS of power and 24Nm of torque. With its all-new design, higher end cycle parts and better performance, is the 250 Duke really just an upgrade to the 200 Duke, or can it become a significant player in the 250cc segment? Here’s the answer!

Ducati Multistrada 1200S Road Test Review

Is the Multistrada 1200 really the all-rounder Ducati says it is? The Italian bike maker says the new Multistrada is not just an adventure tourer, but four motorcycles bundled into one. The bike is powered by the latest version of Ducati’s highly-acclaimed 1200cc, liquid-cooled V-twin engine that also powers its 1299 Panigale and the Diavel. With 162PS on offer, the Multistrada can shame superbikes in a straight line with its performance, while offering far better comfort to let you be in the saddle for hours at a stretch. Ducati also claims that as a motorcycle, the new generation Multistrada 1200 makes for a heady mix that will keep various types of riders enthused, taking care of wants like manic acceleration, supreme comfort, nimble handling, apart from its gorgeous, typically Italian design. Its direct rivals are the Triumph Tiger Explorer and the BMW R1200GS, though it also goes up against bikes like the Suzuki V-Strom 1000, Kawasaki Versys 1000 and the Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin. We put the fully-loaded Multistrada 1200S with the semi-active Ducati Skyhook Suspension through a thorough road test to assess it and see how well it holds true to the manufacturer’s claim, and the results are interesting!
