2017 KTM Duke 250 Review – Design
The new Duke 250 takes several design cues from the updated 390. It features a similarly aggressive headlamp. However, it misses out on the split headlamp treatment. Also, while the new 390 gets a LED headlamp, the new 250 will have to make do with a halogen setup. It also gets really sharp tank panels and a sleeker tail. We are really happy with the way the new generation Duke models look. These bikes look a lot more modern now. The new 250 doesn’t get the TFT speedo console from the new 390. However, it does get a LCD speedo console. The seat is now better bolstered and should offer greater riding comfort.
