If someone approaches you and
asks you to provide a similarity between oranges and bikes, your answer
probable would be 'None'. However, if you are a biker your will have the answer
ready in your mind which is KTM. KTM motorcycles are known to wear orange as
attire and the Duke 200 is no exception. You can spot one easily whether it is
on the move and zips past you in the city traffic or is silently parked among
hundreds of bikes in some mall. Whatever it may be, one just can't ignore
noticing it.
Then for whom is this bike made
for? To answer this one must first ask a few questions before going forward.
Are you a person for whom riding a bike just means getting from point A to
point B? Are you a person for whom fuel economy is more important than looks
and power? Are you a person who always rides along with a pillion?
If your answer to any one of the
questions mentioned above is yes, then definitely the Duke is not made for you.
The next obvious question is - then for whom is this bike really made? Well,
it's made for everyone who enjoys riding and expects the bike to deliver lots
of attitude along with ample power and precision handling. It's for someone who
wants to get noticed each and every time he hits the road. Rest assured that
you will get a second look from everyone.
So what makes the Duke so
aggressive and still deliver as a great city commuter? Well the answer lies in
its styling, design and world class equipment. Equipped with top quality
upside-down front forks and meaty front and rear tires, this beast resembles an
angry hornet when spotted head-on. Even though it's available in black and
white colors, there is nothing that substitutes the traditional orange color.
The equipment on board is not just for styling but actually delivers loads of
information than one can ever expect. A fully computerized console that not
only gives you information such as speed, mileage, distance to empty, miles to
next service etc. but also includes twin trip-meters, multiple warning signs
such as low fuel, side stand engaged and even a clock. These are features you
are bound to get habituated to once you start riding it. Adding to it is the
technologically advanced 200cc engine that pumps 25 bhp of pure power. Also,
its trellis frame is so light that riding it in heavy traffic is a piece of
cake. The short gear ratio offer better control in moving traffic and unleashes
the power with precision whenever you need it. The front and rear disc brakes
give you the confidence of being in control all the time. One can literally
play with it whether you are on the highway or cornering sharp turns in city.
