Unaffordable maintenance and fuel consumption cost

KTM duke is a monstrous bike packed with a lot of power sometimes making it difficult to drive on traffic roads. The bike equipped with a 390cc engine( 373cc to be precise) generates 44bhp(brake horsepower) which is significantly good.


The raw power generated drives the bike to 0-60kms in just a little less than three seconds. The price of the bike is placed around 2 lakhs that is justified by the performance of the bike. The bike yields a mileage of 25kms which should be kept in mind before opting for the bike. The low mileage and high maintenance cost make the bike not affordable for middle class families. It rises a question whether it is necessary to spend so much money on a bike for travel purposes. Dont go for this power packed high maintenance bike unless you are a serious racer or have passion for riding bikes.


Only recommended fuels such as speed shell or extrapremium should be pumped into the bike for obtaining optimum performance as listed. Oil has to be changed frequently for smooth riding of the bike and also to prevent these engine sound. The bike has to be serviced only in authorised KTM service centres. The high maintenance cost and high fuel consumption can take a big toll on a middle class family's budget and it makes the bike unaffordable. Further u cannot clock more than 60kms in city roads. So it is a mere waste of money. Unless u are a racer or someone who has a a serious passion for driving bike, don't opt for this one
