I just bought the 2024 390 duke over the 2023 model because it looked like a step up from the previous generation. With all the like parts on the 125 duke, I have to think it is tops in its class. Glad I live in the USA. We are lawless over here. Didn’t 0:29 know how to ride, took a weekend class and they sold me a 1999 triumph speed triple 950cc. 😂 Boy you learn to be a safe rider real quick on that…… or you don’t!

If its still in the break in period its restricted by rpm. Once the 621 miles is done. They do oil change and do a software update. Itll then go to 12,000rpm

@Fagolore 3 месяца назад

incorrect, they do the full 12k rpm from new and theres no "run in" remap. source, owned one from new

@BigBoyzToyz1974 Месяц назад

No this is a myth there is no software update. The automatic rev indicator is lifted to 10500 rpm but no restrictions. It's to do with the petroleum running in oil is so thin the piston rings have blow by loses compression once first service regular 10w50 oil is applied and the piston seals better so you have better compression = better torque.

@BigBoyzToyz1974 Месяц назад

The bike in the video has only done 300 miles. So unless it's had its oil changed it will be running petroleum based running in oil that is very thin to help piston rings seal. I'm sure when the run in period has been completed and 10w50 oil is applied it will have a better performance. I have a Husqvarna Vitpilen 125 same engine and im running in at the moment it can do 53mph in 4th but only 60 in 6th.

@Mcfc2Rich Месяц назад

First bike was a ‘21 duke 125 and I plan on having one in the garage again when I can, the new front disc and side mounted shock look lame compared to that though

@eightyfps 4 месяца назад

So the 125 in Europe gets Colored TFT while it being manufactured in India, we get the Black and whilte LCD.

@dris_jaes 4 месяца назад

exactly wtf. is the front fairing also different? cause this looks exactly like the 250 dukes fairing. i think this abroad version of the 125 is literally the 390 duke, with a 125 cc engine

@sidharthkm5030 4 месяца назад

@@dris_jaes In India we pay around 2,00,000rs for it but in the UK they pay around 4900 euros which is roughly 4,40,000rs. They get what they pay for imo. Edit: if they put in the TFT with the higher componentry it would probably cost 2,50,000 in India which doesn't make sense for a 125cc in India, at that point they'd just go for the new R15 or MT15, the Gixxer 250 or the ktm 200 duke

@eightyfps 4 месяца назад

Yeah it looks like 390 Swapped with 125 Engine. Maybe they are doing it to reduce the cost of exportation or something idk.

@Bordpie 2 месяца назад

I'm looking at purchasing the Svartpilen 125 brother of this one (essentially the same bike with different styling). I couldn't find any videos on it so this was informative. The quickshifter feature is interesting as a beginner, makes getting the most out the engine easier I guess. Are there even any other 125s with a quickshifter? It's kind of crazy how many features it gets, it basically gets all the stuff from the bigger bike, just with a smaller engine.

@BigBoyzToyz1974 Месяц назад

The quicksilver on the Husqvarna is standard unlike the ktm. I have the 2024 vitpilen 125 and it has all the functions of the ktm just a little better. Husqvarna Vitpilen has Michelin Power 6 tyres the ktm has only road 5 etc

125cc scooters aren't fast at all. Let's not forget. This is still in break in period so the rpm is restricted to 8000rpm once the first service is done. It then goes to 12,000rpm. Your scooter won't touch this😂
