KTM Duke 250 (2017) : The Good and The Bad : PowerDrift
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 04. 2017
- The 2017 KTM Duke 250 is the naked streetfighter that slots right in between its elder and the younger sibling. It gets a bigger, 13.5 litre fuel tank, USD forks and the slipper clutch like the Duke 390 but the brake system as on the Duke 200, which means it does miss out on the ABS. So, how does it fare as an everyday small little big bike? That's exactly what Atul shall find out today.

Hello #NotificationSquad, although this is a season for Mangoes, what do you think about this Orange?
PowerDrift that orange is sweet...
PowerDrift Black over orange any day
Mango, Mojo? :P
85% 390. Good enough for most of the riders out there. Only if it had come with atleast optional ABS. That would have completed the package.
PowerDrift love the orange
First :D
Who ever behind the cam and production... Take a bow brothers 🙇
Thank you so much for the kind words Arpan. Glad you enjoyed it! :D
not good bike KTM all
Yamaha FZ 250 is good

Dibyajyoti Das what are your fuel efficiency figures?
Dibyajyoti Das what mileage you're getting bro?
Vivaan Raghuvanshi I'm getting around 29-32 km/l bro under mixed riding.
Did u have any stalling issues, as mentioned in the review? Please comment on breaking too..
😀
An I only one who switch to 1080p while watching Powerdrift thriller!?😏 #pdarmy 😻💓
The perfect way to enjoy! ;)
I always watch it in 1080p😍
Quality is more important than resolution ... but yes after watching 1440p difference is noticeable but not huge ... but i love 1440p HDR 😍
Videography! One of the best! Love powerdrift!
You guys keep getting better, like a fine wine! Drone shots were amazing! Awesome stuff!
Reviews like this one relate to people like us so much better... Keep up the good work!
That night timelapse shot was amazing.. even amazing is an understatement. #PDArmy
.....it tends to stall quite bit when hot 1:56 ......I think I don't need to see further.
Atul did it right away very good and in an informative way, never saw such an awesome and helpful review. Thanks guys.
I can say it's one of the best review for KTM Duke 250. Appreciate your work!✌
Anyone else find the background music fascinatingly similar to the Netflix original "stranger things" one ?
Yep its a take from stranger things!
Can u tell me name of the background song?
editing level over 9000 😂
Thanks comrade! That brings a smile to our editors' faces! :D
Thanks for letting him know
I was eagerly waiting for this review of Duke 250. Good job
Mighty impressed with the cinematography and stylish review. Never seen such an awesome review of bike. Refreshing.....
Looking ahead for more such reviews. Keep rocking.
Goodness these vids look amazing!
Thanks Subhom, and hope you share it ahead too. :)
yaas..... PD your upload game is on point!!
Thanks comrade! Glad that you enjoyed this! :D
Loved this video!
Great content!
Subscribed!
One of the best review from PD. Great Job.
areeey shot next to my place ! Nashik phata road rocks 😁
Haha! :D
Indeed it does! A brilliant stretch of road there!
asedon123 yeah nashik phata I live near that in pimple saudagar
asedon123 i was there when they were taking the drone shots heheheheh
Atul Haldankar hello sir, it was good meeting you that day... i was waiting for this video from that day..
We want Sagar although Atul also did a fantastic job. Maybe the emotional human side cheering for Sir Sheldekar
Sagar's baking a mouthwatering dish for you guys, do stay tuned. :D
Very refreshing and informative review. Brilliant work PD. Hope to see Atul in more videos. Kudos to you all mate
Glad you enjoyed in comrade, and stay tuned for more! :D
The climax was superb ;). Already owning this beauty and completed the first service. Last week took the bike for a long ride, the bike was extremely silent while cruising in 6th gear and refined. Enjoyed a lot. The bike was the attraction point for so many riders while having my trip. One word to say means I am enjoying my Duke 250.
Did Anyone Miss Sagar :(
He's just in the kitchen baking something for you guys! Stay tuned. :D
No. He did not make me feel that. The video was just superb.
Ya bro
the visual really pleasing to my eyes..
Thanks comrade! Have you shared it ahead too? :D
Loved the videography, you guys took the video to another level with some great effects and lighting
Calm, composed and to the point review. A very different kind. Well pd always dives into a whole new genre... Atul just nailed it! Expectations are high from you now! 😁
I guess Atul did the time lapse :)
Looks like someone's a fan of Atul! :D Why not share it ahead Sandeep? :)
Atul! You just nailed it man! Fucking wonderful, I was used to Sagar giving unbelievable reviews, you are no less! Would love to see some more from you!
Gee that should motivate him for more alright ;)
Rushabh Kaddu - Heartfelt gratitude for those strong words! Believe me when I say they are highly motivating. I hope and pray I manage to live up to your benchmark always! Cheers #heartfelt
Atul Haldankar I am sure you will keep surprising me forever! Hope to meet you someday!
Loved the time lapse bits! Beautiful!
THE BEST CAMERA WORK AND POST PRODUCTION. Beautiful work at beautiful locations on beautiful bike.
Lack of abs and sintered pads were indeed a deal breaker for me.
Keep going PD. Great team.
hey you know what!
not all your viewers are willing to buy a bike or come to know those details....well most of them are but those who keep coming back are motorheads. The mix of information entertainment combined with the level of video quality well if Im mentioning then video quality lets have a long convo then your camra guy he is 100%gold the editor knows well what he is doing pules your host well shargent is always the guy but his knights are worth watching each time.....well this can go on and on
All I wanted to say is
AMAZING PEOPLE YOU ALL ARE 100%GOLD
Thank you so much Rudraksh. Your compliment means a lot to us and motivates us to make even better motoring content and you know what, #PDArmy is 100% Platinum! :D
flyover scenes at nashik phata right? 😁
Sharp eyes! ;)
hahaha yes bro! our pcmc got great road ;)
awesome video man..loved to watch it.
The recent videos are much more pleasing to watch, esp the drone bits. I never really liked the fast and flashy editing of the older videos. Beautiful video, great job !
Can u tell the name of the roads u were riding at night time that roads r beautiful Flyovers and Many Cuts😊😊😊😊😊Which Route was that BTW nice video PD Army
In pune
nice one bro
Thanks comrade! Why not share it ahead as well? :D
Lovely review. Wasn't expecting such a detailed city and touring review.
And the videos are really getting better with breath taking drone shots.
Whoever is behind all these, really deserve a bow.
Thanks a lot for changing the way India sees the bike/car reviews.
Glad that you enjoyed the video comrade. It's our motto to showcase the Indian motoring in the way it deserves to be seen. Hope you have shared the video ahead! :D
Wow! Amazing videography! Awesome guys!
Love the video! I wud like to see a comparo vs the fz 25. I knw my bikes well, but wud want to ask for more opinion, im a tourer of sorts n own a gixxer sf. should I upgrade to the majo or wait for the fazer 250?
We shall try about that comparo. About the touring bikes, there's no updated yet about the launch of the Fazer 250, so you can wait, but if you are planning to buy the bike soon, you can go with the Mojo.
+PowerDrift what about the d400
PowerDrift I can wait :) My gixxy is only 15 months old now. thank u for ur response!
Padmanav mohanta I wouldn't compromise on build quality and saddle comfort. D400's more of a jack of all trades. + love the Bass on the exhaust note of the mojo :)
Last Event was Quite Good
Haha! Thanks. :)
Awesome video man! the team who has worked to make this video must be too good in their work. One of the best reviews i have ever watched, it has amazed me. Thanks for this great upload. Your video has made a new subscriber! Keep up the good work rolling ;-)
location,sound,dialogues of every video is amazing.u guys worked so hard that is inspiring.u guys make a bike review on whole another level.u guys make us proud.thank you guys.
Thank you so much for the kind words Anurag! It really means a lot to us! Cheers! :D
anyone waiting for rc250 ? ...
.
Ya man i have the same question....But i guess the price comes very close to duke 390 in India with our taxes and all so they are not launching it.
lol im waiting for rc790 :P
Ishaan Aggarwal there is a duke 790, not rc 790.
there is no rc 790 buddy theres is a duke
where is Sagar 🤒🤒 I wanna see him 😅😅 #sagarian ❤️
He's working on bringing you some more motoring content! Stay tuned. :)
+PowerDrift is it?? Kawasaki z650??
#SAGAR...❤
Nicely Done Atul and PD, as always. Refreshing to watch on a weekend.
Glad you enjoyed it comrade! :D
Great production quality guys. 👌
suggestions and request : i think many people can't keep up with PD pace of voice over it would be good if u use those text on background kind of effects to highlight numbers and specs
We shall try about that comrade. :D
Nice time lapse
Thank you, and remember to share it ahead! :D
awesome visuals and amazing post processing love you POWER DRIFT.I had duke 250 in my bucket list now it stiked it out. Thanks power drift.With a little premium amount I'm planning for the D390
That's quite a good review. Covering most of the things a new buyer would like to know.
At 3:00 is that Aloma county road? (New dp road)
Eagle eyes Akshay! ;)
planning to buy one .;-)
Asif Khan check Yamaha fz25
Duke 250 has better Brakes, Retrofitted Adjustable levers and Slipper Clutch too....
yes absolutely.duke 2017 is damn beautiful design.just love it.
Man you guys are #1 at editing keep uploading quality videos!!
Thank you so much Hrishikesh for the compliment. :D
watta vid editing man!! great review. Pure professional standard!
i find the 250 better than the 390... the headlights... and maybe if the instrument cluster was more smaller like in the mt07, it would look very good
What happened with the cops?
They saw me riding an unregistered vehicle and hence I was stopped. Had a friendly chat after we showed them the right paperwork and they too were intrigued by the Duke250
Don't new vehicles have a TR (Temporary Registration) number on a yellow sticker? I think that's mandatory until you get it registered with the RTO. Please use that next time.
Atul Haldankar Ha ha recently two guys in chennai driving ninja 300 and ktm were stopped by cops. They were wearing riding gears and by looking that cops thought they were racing, so stopped them and took the keys. Those riders were struggling for a couple of hours to explain. I thought you too were facing the same problem😀😀
Dhrubajyoti Gogoi you have a
Completed 1600+ KMS on this beauty as being first Indian to get KTM Duke 250. Awesome Bike. PD You just nailed it
I love this new approach with the SythWave Music and the night time lapse... Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it Darryl! Hope you shared it ahead too! :D
Got This Orange Beast Today... 😍😘
Congratulations on the bike comrade, and remember to ride safely always. :D
whenever I see you I will be like - Chicken chacha chicken chichi chicken chuchu or haa mutton raara !!
Haha! Bolo tararara! :D
I don't get it

Informative vdo Atul! thanks for the review!And yea .. cool time lapse ;-) ,the bike looks awesome !!
PD crew busted by cops as well :P
Just a routine check Anand. :)
Kanoon andha hota hai bhai...
that comment made the day..kanoon aur pyar ek hi ho gye
Did anyone notice...the display shows the mileage of the bike to be 41.5 kmpl..😮😮😮(4:40)...
is that true power drift???
That's the real-time fuel consumption. We got a combined fuel economy of 30 kmpl.
I really appreciate your crisp and precise content with excellent editing and production capabilities that even some of the big name media firms often fall short off, you guys are doing a stellar job. Wish you all the very best.
You guys are best and got all the positive vibes around
