KTM 125 Duke 2019

Even in the Euro 5 version, the KTM Duke 125 is the motorbike to beat in the A1 class. Superior equipment, potent engine, good chassis, great display and fun Supermoto mode make not only the heart of 16-year-olds beat faster. The looks polarise, but let the observer clearly recognise the smallest Duke as such. The Duke 125 is not cheap, but it is worth the price.

In summary, the Ninja 400 could be described as the perfect entry into the supersport world. You can't get more power with A2, the looks suggest much more power, the vehicle is playful to ride, is forgiving in every respect and still allows a really sporty riding style. Those who had legitimate concerns about the lack of power on the various 250 cubic machines now have no more excuses. Ninja 400, it's good to have you!
