It stands out for its excellent acceleration and top speed for its displacement, making it very fun to corner. The KTM 200 Duke's engine is exceptionally powerful and sporty for a 200cc motorcycle, offering excellent acceleration and agility, ideal for urban use and fun handling. It's a single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, 4-stroke engine with direct injection. Despite its power, the engine is functional and fuel-efficient.

Although they are not bothersome, the vibrations typical of a single-cylinder engine can be felt, especially when more power is required.

Spare parts are expensive, which, combined with the need for specialized maintenance, increases the cost of ownership. This is not a motorcycle for people unwilling to invest time and money in its care and maintenance.
