KTM 125 Duke 2017

KTM 125 Duke 2017

It's really fantastic how much equipment you can buy in the 125cc class these days. The KTM 125 Duke is not only convincing with plenty of power and quick turn-in behaviour, its appearance is also very classy. Thanks to the aggressive look and the ultra-modern TFT display, the 125 Duke looks like a shrunken 1290 Super Duke R. A whole lot of motorbike in a small package.
