While the Duke 390 is expected to receive significant changes, the 250 will skip the LED headlights and the new TFT instrument console. Other bits the Duke 250 will not feature are the Metzeler tyres found on the Duke 390, and will instead come with MRF Revz C1 tyres that come on the Dominar 400.

Pricing is key, and since the motorcycle will be placed between the 200 and the 390, the Duke 250 could wipe out competition. Key contenders will be the Yamaha FZ 250, Benelli TNT 25, and the Kawasaki Z250.
