KTM 125 Duke 2018

KTM 125 Duke 2018

Even in its second generation, the KTM 125 Duke is still the highest-quality overall package in the 125cc naked bike class. Its looks stand out and its equipment is similar to that of larger and significantly more expensive KTM models. As is typical for KTM, the handling comes from the supermoto league, which makes the 125 Duke a real fun machine in tight corners. However, the Orange from Mattighofen should not relax too long on their laurels, because the competition is strong and is already beginning to overtake the ever-popular KTM 125 Duke in some aspects.
