Bajaj Auto-owned Austrian motorcycle brand KTM has updated the 160 Duke featuring a 5-inch colour TFT display at INR 178,536, while the base variant comes at INR 170,545. The screen uses bonded glass and includes navigation and Bluetooth connectivity.

The 5-inch display is derived from the Gen-3 KTM 390 Duke. It is operated via a switch cube on the handlebar using 4-way menu switches. Riders can connect smartphones through the KTM Connect and KTM My-Ride apps to access vehicle data and travel information.

Features of the connectivity system include: Turn-by-turn directions displayed on the screen. Identification of incoming calls with the option to accept or decline via the mode switch. Outgoing calls and address book access are disabled during transit. Control of smartphone music players, including track selection and volume adjustment, when paired with a helmet headset.

The 160 Duke includes a Supermoto ABS mode, which can be toggled through the display menus. This setting disengages the ABS on the rear wheel for specific riding requirements.

The interface also allows for customisation of shift RPM and limit RPM. The display background transitions between dark and orange themes based on these settings. Users can also configure shortcuts for specific functions and infographics on the screen.

Manik Nangia, President, Probiking, said, “With the new TFT display, the KTM 160 Duke becomes even more intuitive and engaging to ride. This upgrade reinforces KTM’s focus on combining sharp performance with advanced rider technology in an accessible package.”
