Braking duties are handled by a new 320 mm front disc and a 240 mm rear disc with dual-channel, cornering and Supermoto ABS, like its higher displacement sibling, the 390 Duke. Both bikes have a seat height of 800 mm, which can be raised to 820 mm with the KTM PowerParts set.

Coming to the powertrain, the 125 Duke is powered by a 124.9 cc mill that makes a peak power output of 14.7 bhp and 11.5 Nm of peak torque, while the 250 Duke gets a 249 cc powertrain, churns out 30 bhp and 25 Nm of peak torque. Both motorcycles feature a 6-speed gearbox. 

While there is no official information, the motorcycles should be launched in India later this year. But expect the India-spec models to miss out on a few features, as a cost-cutting measure by the brand.
