KTM plans to launch the 250 Duke and 390 Duke in the United States. Both bikes will be manufactured at Bajaj Auto\u2019s Chakan plant.<\/p>\n
The 2023 KTM 250 Duke and 390 Duke were introduced in the Indian market in September this year. Both bikes receive several updates for the 2023 model year.<\/p>\n
The 2023 KTM 250 Duke is powered by a new 249cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 31 BHP and 25 Nm. It features a redesigned cylinder head, a larger airbox and comes with ride-by-wire & quick-shifter as standard.<\/p>\n
The third-generation 390 Duke gets a new 399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that produces 45.37 BHP and is paired with a 6-speed gearbox via a slipper clutch and a quick-shifter. An updated frame, lightweight wheels and brakes help the Gen-3 bike to achieve the highest power-to-weight ratio of 270 BHP per tonne.<\/p>\n
