I rode a Duke 200 a couple of weeks ago. It was a courtesy bike while my normal ride was getting serviced. It was a fun bike. The twitchy throttle response and very low gearing made it feel surprisingly torquey and responsive.

I'm a first time rider (1 month riding experience) and I'm loving it. Maybe i'll grow out of it skill-wise but I can say that right now I really enjoy riding with it.

I'm 6'1 and 175 pounds and travel 70-75 MPH comfortably with my Duke 200. Once you get past the break in point the bike really comes alive. Sure, it's no rocket but it moves pretty well for how small it is. Definitely not a highway cruiser but you can keep up with traffic when necessary.

Best looking motorcycle of all time. I just got it and love it as my fist motorcycle with clutch. I have driven a semi manual one for 15 years. This duke 200cc really changed the riding experience. Love it ❤

So I just scored this bike for a forth bike in the garage and my wife’s first motorcycle . As of today you can get the 2020s for...drum roll...$2799. No really, several dealers here in Florida have them advertised! So, Chase’s review and experience are all under KTM’s break in mode limiting the bike to 7500 rpm till 600 miles. Trust me, the bike makes beans well above that and becomes a different bike above 8k rpm. He’s right, if you limit it to 7500 it’s not much stronger than a Grom. Wring it out past that and she comes alive! Another cool fact is the 200 has the same swing arm, fork, wheels/tires, and brake calipers as the 390! That means the lower power/weight of the 200 create a real corner carver that has the brakes of a GP bike. This little gem is the best deal in dealerships right now, hurry.

I got the Duke 200 for my 15yo daughters first motorcycle. It fits her well and has been a great learner bike. I will take it out every once in a while and it's still a blast to ride in town.

I bought one, I'm 38, 172lbs., 5 10. It's perfect amd plenty of speed for me. If your am imature rider and only need speed instead of enjoying rides then this ain't for you. I do plan on moving up in power . Will use this bike to hone my skills.

Just bought a 2022. Removed the exhaust and straight piped it. Sounds so much better and increase in horsepower very noticble. I love this bike.. worth the 4000 price tag.

Thats the transport lock. Duke 200 has a topspeed of 130km/h.

[ParadiseBiker]

Just to correct you Chase.. There's actually a Ktm duke 125

I'm considering this for my first bike here in NYC. Within the five boroughs, the speed limit rarely goes above 50 mph, and not many folks push it beyond 60, if we're lucky enough to not have traffic. I think this bike would work in a lot of urban centers where traffic congestion just won't let you go fast practically.

[DaddyDog]

I have a 200 Duke and it will do 75-80 easy it has to be that it's in transport lock. Also after the brake-in you can set the shift light to 10-11k.

[rusty]

General rule of thumb: 60 kmh ≈ 40mph, 100kmh ≈ 60mph

Duke 200 is roughly half the price here in Indian market around roughly $2400 and Duke 390 and RC390 around 4800-5000$

Yamaha have neglected indian market, R3 2020 and MT03 2020 were never launched. Yamaha R3 ABS 2017 was available here for 6500$ and Ninja 400 way above 7000$ making both Yamaha and Kawasaki out of the range for a lot people. It was really hard to swallow the Indian pricing considering you can literally get same amount of power on the Duke for half the price, I mean it's crazy.

Keep up the good Work Chase, love your first ride impressions, camera angles and B Roll

I think that would be a cool bike for a race series. Inexpensive good handling, really put the skills to the test.

[bajacore]

I learned to ride on a CT-70 and my first car was a ‘92 Miata. So a small, slow motorcycle would be right up my alley 😆

[goodguyalpha]

To be honest the european KTM Duke 125 (A1 License / 15hp) is a lot more equipped with full color relatively big screen, with other rider electronics. That duke 200 is based on the very old version of the duke 125 with a newer headlamp

[temaus]

It's like a more powerful Grom that you can legally operate on a highway! :)

[supnstuff]

I just bought one. It’s not bad for putting around. Way cooler than a grom imo
