In terms of chassis, both the KTM 390 Duke and 200 Duke feature a chromium-molybdenum frame, which provides strength and durability. The frame type is tubular, which adds to the bikes' lightweight construction.

When it comes to dimensions and weights, the two bikes are nearly identical. They have the same front and rear tire widths and diameters, as well as the same wheelbase and seat height.

In summary, the KTM 390 Duke 2015 offers more power and performance compared to the KTM 200 Duke 2015. However, both bikes share many similarities in terms of technical specifications, suspension, chassis, and braking system. Ultimately, the choice between the two would depend on the rider's preferences and the availability of the KTM 200 Duke in their country.

"I'm not a girl, not yet a woman" sang Britney Spears in an innocently erotic voice, trying to make the whole world believe she wasn't already dating Justin Timberlake fi...Well, in any case, this is a transitional phase, as the 390 Duke also describes with its essence. No longer a small Duke, but not yet a big one either, the 390 is right in the middle. You shouldn't underestimate it, but you shouldn't expect too much either. If you keep this in mind, you will have a lot of fun with it, even on a not too fast race track. (However, not too many thousands should be on the road then.) Feather-light handling like a moped, but already as strong as many a 600cc funk bike from the last 10 years.

The first step towards a real motorbike. 10 hp more than the 125 is no small thing, but for us Central Europeans it's not really an issue. Because the 200 is not sold here. 16-year-olds and B-111 riders are only allowed to ride the 125, up-and-comers go straight for the 390 Duke, so there's no room for the 200, which only sells well in other countries far beyond our national borders.

Significantly stronger than the 125
