This sector is fiercely contested, with Yamaha 's MT-15 having been the yardstick for years. Both motorcycles obviously go after young, inner-city riders but are defined by differing philosophies: KTM relies on aggression and high-rev excitement, whereas Yamaha relies on refinement and versatility. At ₹ 1.85 lakh, the 160 Duke occupies a higher rung of the ladder. The MT-15, on the other hand, is priced between ₹ 1.70 lakh and ₹ 1.81 lakh (ex-showroom).
