THE THRILL CHASER

The KTM 250 DUKE flaunts with, a new 250 cc powerplant - this machine is 250% DUKE! Built with the same NAKED ethos as its bigger brethren, the 2024 KTM 250 DUKE boasts an all-new, muscled-up attitude, complete with a fresh new frame, suspension package, LED lights, riding tech, and street-ripping, turn-gripping aggression.

• ENGINE: Boasting the latest generation in LC4c engines, the 2024 KTM 250 DUKE muscles up with more power, smoother acceleration, and lighter overall weight than before. Drawing from years of experience in the small engine game, the 2024 KTM 250 DUKE now also features an improved gearbox, and an optimized cylinder head, and is ready to adopt EURO5.2 emission standards. Oh, and did we mention it is also READY TO RACE?
• LED LIGHTING: Tearing a deep gash into the night, all 2024 KTM DUKE models come equipped with powerful LED lights in the front and at the rear. Not only do these work when the world becomes dark, but they also provide improved visibility when navigating busy traffic or misty road conditions.

• FRAME: The new design features a 2-piece construction composed of an all-new steel trellis main frame with a pressure die-cast aluminum subframe. The rear shock absorber is now also mounted off-center to allow for a larger airbox while reducing seat height and, at the same time, adding to the DUKE's aggressive stance. Not only designed for looks, the primary objective of the frame design is to enhance vehicle dynamics by augmenting torsional rigidity, improved agility, and enhanced feedback from the chassis.
• SWINGARM: A new curved cast aluminum swingarm provides a sturdy and durable platform for the rear suspension system, featuring a direct shock absorber mount that is now offset to the side, for that super-racy look. This also creates additional space for the new exhaust muffler, providing added attitude.
• FORK: Upfront, a 43 mm WP APEX big piston fork with 150 mm travel keeps things in check, ensuring rock-solid performance on all street conditions.
• REAR SHOCK: On the rear, you'll find an off-center WP APEX Emulsion shock absorber with 150 mm of travel and 60 mm of stroke. The rear shock is also preload adjustable.
