2026 KTM 125 Duke Unveiled Globally With New Colour Options
KTM has officially unveiled the 2026 iteration of the 125 Duke in international markets. The latest update is a mild refresh, with the popular entry-level streetfighter receiving two new paint schemes while retaining its existing mechanical and feature package.
For the 2026 model year, the KTM 125 Duke is now offered in Black and Blue colour options. The black shade gives the motorcycle a more subtle and stealthy appearance, while the blue colourway adds a brighter, youthful touch aimed at riders who prefer a more vibrant look. Apart from these visual changes, the overall design and bodywork remain identical to the outgoing model.
Under the bodywork, the 2026 KTM 125 Duke continues with the same 124.9cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine. It is paired with a six-speed gearbox and is known for its refined performance and strong mid-range for an entry-level motorcycle. There are no changes to the engine output or emissions setup with this update.

The feature list also remains unchanged. The 125 Duke continues to offer full-LED lighting, a 5-inch TFT instrument cluster with smartphone connectivity, ride-by-wire throttle, WP Apex suspension at both ends, and a lightweight steel trellis frame. These features continue to be among the strongest selling points of the motorcycle in its segment.
KTM has not yet shared details about the India-spec version of the 2026 125 Duke. If introduced locally, the update is expected to be limited to the new colour options, with pricing and mechanicals likely to remain largely unchanged.
