Q. Is it a beginner friendly bike - Duke 250?

I never ridden gear bikes or scooty type. 250 ABS was my first bike. first two days with help of my brothers, i learned and rided slowly and understood the clutch control and trottle power control. third day, i went long drive for 240km with average of 110kmph. KTM is one of the best bike. But if you are not confident in trottle control. don't go for long drive in high way and avoid high speed driving. mostly drive in empty roads.

This is my first gear bike and I had never ridden any gear bike before. So I can tell for a week or 2 you will have to ride slow and understand how it response to throttle. I found it beginner friendly for me because I had ridden Activa & Dio for 9 years before.

I don't think so because it have great power and acceleration which is a bit difficult for beginners but once you got control you will love with this bike You can control easily if you rode a bike before
