Our verdict

Their ex-showroom prices are close enough to ignore, so specification decides it: the Yamaha R15 leads on dealer and service reach.

Choose the KTM 200 Duke if

you want the stronger powertrain for hill climbs and overtaking

Measured: 6.6 PS more power.

Choose the Yamaha R15 if

you want servicing within reach of where you live
you want a dealer close enough to visit and negotiate at

Measured: 51 more service centres in Nepal (90 vs 39); 198 more showrooms in Nepal (247 vs 49).

Every figure in this verdict is computed from the table below — the same ex-showroom prices, variant specifications and Nepal service network the page publishes. Nothing here is an estimate, and where a figure is missing on one side the axis is left out rather than guessed.
