KTM 200 Duke 2021

The KTM 200 Duke is a popular naked street motorcycle manufactured by KTM, an Austrian motorcycle brand. It is designed for urban commuting and entry-level riders who want a combination of performance and agility in a compact package.

The 2021 KTM 200 Duke features a sleek and aggressive design, characterized by sharp lines, a muscular fuel tank, and a distinctive KTM orange color scheme. It is equipped with a powerful 200cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, which provides a good balance of power and fuel efficiency. The engine is mated to a 6-speed transmission, allowing riders to make the most out of its power delivery across various riding conditions.

The motorcycle is built on a lightweight steel trellis frame, which contributes to its nimble handling and agility. It features high-quality suspension components, including an upside-down front fork and a rear mono-shock, both sourced from WP Suspension. These components provide excellent damping and stability, ensuring a comfortable and controlled ride.

Braking performance is taken care of by a front disc brake with a radial caliper and a rear disc brake. The motorcycle also comes equipped with a dual-channel ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), enhancing safety and reducing the risk of wheel lock-up during hard braking.

The KTM 200 Duke is known for its rider-friendly ergonomics, with an upright riding position that provides good visibility and control. The seat is well-padded and comfortable, making it suitable for longer rides as well. The digital instrument cluster provides essential information such as speed, gear position, fuel level, and more.

Warning
Danger of burns Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.

• Do not touch any parts such as the exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber, or brake system before the vehicle parts have cooled down.
• Let the vehicle parts cool down before you perform any work on the vehicle.

Only operate the vehicle when it is in perfect technical condition, in accordance with its intended use, and in a safe and environmentally compatible manner. An appropriate driver’s license is needed to ride the vehicle on public roads. Have malfunctions that impair safety promptly eliminated by an authorized KTM workshop. Adhere to the information and warning labels on the vehicle.

Protective clothing
Warning
Risk of injury Missing or poor protective clothing presents an increased safety risk.

• Wear appropriate protective clothing such as helmets, boots, gloves as well as trousers and a jacket with protectors on all rides.
• Always wear protective clothing that is in good condition and meets the legal regulations.

In the interest of your own safety, KTM recommends that you only operate the vehicle while wearing protective clothing.

Work rules
Unless specified otherwise, the ignition must be turned off during all work (models with the ignition lock, models with remote key) or the engine must be at a standstill (models without ignition lock or remote key). Special tools are necessary for certain tasks. The tools are not a component of the vehicle but can be ordered using the number in parentheses. Example: bearing puller (15112017000) During assembly, use new parts to replace parts that cannot be reused (e.g. self-locking screws and nuts, expansion screws, seals, sealing rings, O-rings, pins, and lock washers). In the case of certain screws, a screw adhesive (e.g. Loctite®) is required. Observe the manufacturer’s instructions. If a thread locker (e.g., Precote®) has already been applied to a new part, do not apply any additional thread locker. After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Change damaged or worn parts. After completing a repair or service work, check the operating safety of the vehicle.

Environment
If you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that problems and conflicts do not occur. To protect the future of the motorcycle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle legally, display environmental consciousness, and respect the rights of others. When disposing of used oil, other operating and auxiliary fluids, and used components, comply with the laws and regulations of the respective country. Because motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of used vehicles, there are no legal regulations that pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle. Your authorized KTM dealer will be glad to advise you.

Owner’s Manual
Read this owner’s manual carefully and completely before making your first trip. The Owner’s Manual contains useful information and many tips on how to operate, handle, and service your motorcycle. This is the only way to find out how best to customize the vehicle for your own use and how you can protect yourself from injury.
