- The 200 Duke ABS gets a single-channel ABS unit from Bosch
- Priced at Rs 1.60 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), which is roughly 8k more than the non-ABS version
- The bike is available in all three shades
- Expect an ABS version of the 250 Duke to follow soon
KTM India has launched the 200 Duke ABS at Rs 1.60 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). At that price, you are shelling out Rs 8000 more than the non-ABS variant, which will continue to be sold until 1 April 2019. Apart from the ABS unit, there are no other changes in the motorcycle.
The ABS on offer is a single-channel unit sourced from Bosch. While it may seem that KTM India is skimping on tech, the addition of any form of safety aid is a welcome move for our riding conditions. And just to give you a slight perspective, Bajaj’s ABS versions of the NS 200 and RS 200 command a premium of Rs 12,000 over their non-ABS counterparts. Read KTM India’s official statement here:
