The light they were talking about, the shift light, turns off after the 630 mile break-in period..it's there to protect engine while breaking in. I've taken the 200 up to 80mph after it was broken in no problem. I wish these dealer reviewers would take the time to flip through owners manual so they can give a truly informative review
Ooo thank you for that piece of info im planning on buying the 200 for door dash
I know right, going WOT on brand new bikes that haven't even been broken in and expect the world or give them a bit of slack isn't the way to review a motorcycle.
As someone who hasn't rode in over a decade, these are definitely two of the bikes that I'm looking at now to get back into riding
The shift lights warnings can be changed after the break in period of 625. miles.
They dont want to get wound out because 2,300 rpms past 7k are locked during the break in period. The shift light is also telling you to shift much earlier during the break in period.
Nice. I have KTM Duke 200 2019 model. But the 2021 is really nice and good looking. Should have waited for a couple of months But too late. Sub as well as fellow duke rider. Cheers!
Love the honest review... but I've been on the island, Hawaii, for too long. All these reviews are about mainland highways and these guys want to get up to 80 - 100mph. Lol the fasted speed limit here is 60mph so I think the 200 will do just fine for me 😅
These guys don't even talk about KTMs transport lock that limits the bikes until break in has been completed. Then the 200 will get up to around 80-83mph.
So it limits your top speed until its broken in?
Yes, they have a very controlled break in period. After break in, they really open up.
I’m impressed by how poorly the people who sell and review these bikes, understand these bikes.
Until you get through the break-in and get the performance unlocked, these little KTMs are electronically restricted. No review should be done on one of these until they’ve been unrestricted, or you won’t know what your long term experience will be…
how freaking pathetic the flashing red in top gear how much more chincy can you get. and the 200 with the light come on KTM seems like B.S. to me lame
I have the 200. It’s pretty sweet for in town and small bits of highway. If you want lower rpm for highway definitely get a higher cc. The shift light is only for break in because your not supposed to go over 7500 rpm. After that no more shift light at 7500 rpm 🤷♂️
