Ktm DUKE 125 :)

Happen to pass by this shop called DirtWheel Near Safra tampines... Saw this new bike on the block
it's Ktm Duke 125..... ok here goes!


                         Front View                                                            








 










 Side View








Probably the first to step out of the bike shop in singapore.

Introduction :

The first 125cc KTM for the road – for young people from the age of 16 and the young at heart alike. The 125 Duke offers maximum riding fun, thanks to thoroughbred motorcycle technology. The featherweight chassis with high-quality components and first-class brakes guarantees dynamic cornering fun. The refined four-stroke single cylinder with fuel injection and six-gear transmission provides adequate propulsion. And the low fuel consumption ensures a reasonable level of cost-effectiveness. 




Engine:
                                                                                                                                                                         (Actual Engine)

The state-of-the-art, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder four-stroke engine with twin overhead camshafts, four valves and electronic fuel injection has been developed specifically for the 125 Duke. Effortlessly, it achieves peak power of 11 kW (15 hp) and thanks to the balancer shaft, delivers the highest levels of smoothness.



Just like the RC8 R, two overhead camshafts in the 125 Duke's cylinder head actuate four valves by means of cam levers. This design is not only extremely reliable, but the cam levers are coated with ultra-hard carbon which minimises friction - releasing even more power

















Fuel :



INJECTION


The intricate engine design, state-of-the-art injection electronics and the close-ratio, six-speed transmission not only help the 125 Duke to achieve impressive performance, but also moderate fuel consumption. Thanks to the regulated catalytic converter, it produces only minimal emissions.

The shapely 11 l (12 qt.) fuel tank on the 125 Duke not only provides the rider with perfect knee contact, but also with a range of significantly more than 300 km (186.4 mi), even when ridden on the edge, thanks to the economic engine.


Equipment: 


COCKPIT





The 125 Duke has everything that distinguishes a genuine KTM - from the high-quality chassis components to the multi-function cockpit, which even keeps you up to date with fuel consumption and remaining range. The extensive KTM PowerParts range gives you the option of adding your own individual style.





BRAKES

With the powerful, outstandingly controllable brake system developed by KTM in collaboration with Brembo® and the perfect grip of the wide tyres, the rider always has the lightweight motorcycle under control. At the front, a radial four-piston brake caliper bites onto a 280 mm (11.02 in) brake disc.




SEAT

For all its sportiness, the two-piece seat provides surprising long-distance comfort, perfect support and first-class ergonomics for rider and pillion. At 810 mm (31.89 in), the seat height is low enough for a secure standing position, but also high enough for sports-oriented use and a genuine big-bike feeling.



 TELESCOPIC FORK
The 125 Duke's high-quality upside-down fork from WP Suspension has the same 43 mm (1.69 in) outer tube diameter as the RC8 R – in other words, real racing equipment that guarantees highest levels of stability and precision.



SWINGARM

The 125 Duke's lightweight, high-quality, pin-jointed swingarm is designed and produced according to the same principle as the 690 Duke. The light alloy swingarm with directly linked WP shock absorber excels with extreme torsional stiffness and outstanding tracking stability.


                                                          FRAME



11 kW (15 hp) of power plus an unladen weight of 124 kg (273 lb.) guarantee plenty of riding fun with the 125 Duke. The first-class chassis, with lightweight tubular space frame in the proven KTM design, turns it into a real surfer through the curves. Weight grouped close to the centre of gravity maximise manoeuvrability and precision.

Some photos enjoy :)       







Personal opinion :

If  anyone has a deep pocket this is the bike for you. If not, there's alot more choices of cheaper ones out there. At  around SGD$13000(all in), it's an overkill price for another unpowered bike. That price range is for 400cc bikes. Wonder what's the KTM DUKE 200cc(which is not out yet) Price will be.  You can optd for YAMAHA FZ16. which is cheaper and better.
