2018 KTM Duke 200 back in Malaysia market, RM11,888

While most Malaysian bikers know the 2017 KTM Duke 390 and Duke 250 well, KTM Malaysia doesn’t want you to forget the 2018 KTM Duke 200, still in the market at a price of RM11,888, with zero-rated GST. The current price for the smallest of KTM’s range in Malaysia also omits road tax, registration and insurance.

The Duke 200 was on display at the KTM Carnival in Johor Bharu and the most obvious change to the model are the new graphics. The main colour on the Duke 200 is white, and this is combined with black and orange graphics along with wheels painted orange.

Power on the Duke 200 comes from a liquid-cooled, single cylinder engine that displaces 199.5 cc and produces a claimed 26 hp at 10,000 rpm and 19.5 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm. A six-speed gear box and chain final drive gets power to the ground.

    How does this bike compare to the triple-spark plug Modenas NS200? Is it lighter and more powerful?

    Parts now so cheap. Thanks to Modenas & 3rd party importer.

    Oil filter now drop to below 20. Previously 40++.
    Old design is better compare to current over design.

    Men’s extreme dream to limit fast sporty, tough or adventurers.

    The urban design for 2017 Duke seems a failure
    Hip hop gen is weaker prefer small car than hot & rain.

  • Good contender for yamaha R15 if price is about the same. However, for ktm enthusiast, they would go for Duke 250.

    Any owners here can share the ownership experience of this bike?
    I heard it wasn’t as trouble free as some of the Japanese counterpart…

    There should be a choice of colours. How about one colour scheme for the more mature crowd ?

    How much of a difference does the abs make for the bike?

    i know the science and have seen the videos, but i am asking because, if there is no abs variant for the 200, then going for the 250 (obviously a higher price bracket), is the best option??

    I am confused :-|
