Q. Can a short rider ride KTM 250 Duke?

Sure. A short rider can ride a D250 just like any moderately tall guy riding an offroadadventure bike. It is just a matter of practice and some adjustments in riding style which will help anyone overcome the challenges riding a D250, though not tall enough. While I was appearing for my motorcycle license test, I met a scientist from ISRO who was only 4ft 5" tall and cleared the test on his spouse's Kinetic Honda. He literally had to slide down the seat every time the vehicle got to a stand still. It is just a matter of practice and determination. He never thought of this as a challenge. He was quite happy that he learnt to ride a two wheeler. Mind you, we both were one among the 13guys who cleared the test out of a pack of 60folks. I was so happy for him than my own result and I still remember his smile. If you're determined, just go for it. Nothing will ever be able to stop you from riding a D250!
