The 2021 KTM Duke 125 will, however, carry forward a BS6-compliant version of the same 124cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, which powered the outgoing model. The engine also continues to produce the same power and torque figures of 14.5bhp and 12Nm, while being mated to a standard six-speed transmission.

It only makes sense for the entry-level Duke 125 to also follow the same design language as its larger siblings.
