Is Nepal ready for 125cc premium commuters?

KTM Nepal tried to create a premium 125cc segment with the KTM Duke 125 a few years back.

Unfortunately, many were not ready to spend their hard-earned cash on 125cc naked sports. Instead, preferred to add a few more and get the KTM Duke 200 instead.

Inevitably, KTM Nepal discontinued the KTM Duke 125 for the Nepali market.
