KTM has finally launched the 200 Duke in
America as a 2020 model. It has been priced at US$ 3,999. At this price point, the 2020 KTM 200 Duke
provides a whole bunch of features. It has a potent 199.5cc single-cylinder
liquid-cooled engine which produces 25 PS of maximum power and 19.3 Nm of peak
torque. The transmission here is a 6-speed unit.
In terms of hardware, a pair of 43mm WP
Apex USD front forks and WP Apex linkless rear monoshock handle the suspension
tasks. The braking comes from a large 300mm disc at the front with four-piston
Bybre calliper and a 230mm disc at the rear with single-piston Bybre calliper.
KTM has also added a dual-channel ABS as a safety feature.
As for the looks, the 2020 KTM 200 Duke
follows the same design philosophy which its elder siblings like the 250 Duke
and 390 Duke use. It certainly imparts a much more attractive visual appeal to
the naked motorcycle.
