-

The Indo-Australian Sports bike manufacturer KTM has kick-started 2020 with a bang. KTM has updated its entire motorcycle line-up of India and all the KTM motorcycles now comply with stringent BS6 emission norms, which will come into effect from April 2020. In this article, we will be talking about the small capacity sports motorcycles from the house of KTM. The KTM RC 125 BS6 and Duke 125 BS6 have been launched in India with prices starting at Rs 1.38 lakhs Ex-showroom.
The KTM Duke 125 is the most affordable KTM motorcycle in India and it borrows its design cues from the erstwhile Duke 200. Erstwhile, because the 2020 KTM Duke 200 has received a significant upgrade in its BS6 iteration. The 125 Duke doesn't get any cosmetic upgrades other than the fact that it now gets a revised belly pan and its the same belly pan which is seen on higher-capacity Dukes like the Duke 200, Duke 250 and the 390 Duke. It continues to be available in three color options: orange, white and black.
The KTM RC 125 BS6, on the other hand, gets a significant cosmetic upgrade than its BS4 counterpart. The gloss-white color scheme of the RC 125 now features an orange tank and graphics, while the trellis-frame is finished in black.
The KTM RC 125 BS6 and Duke 125 BS6 are powered by the same mill. The good news, however, is that KTM has managed to make this 125cc engine BS6 compliant without any drop in power or torque. It is a 124.7cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine that generates a maximum power output of 14.5bhp and 12Nm of peak torque. Both comes mated to a 6-speed manual transmission.
The 2020 KTM Duke 125 BS6 has been priced at Rs 1.38 lakhs, while the RC125 BS6 now costs Rs 1.55 lakhs, all prices Ex-showroom Delhi. This is an increase of around 6,000-7,000 rupees over their BS4 iterations. KTM has announced that the deliveries of these motorcycles will begin towards the end of February 2020.
