Yezdi Scrambler has been updated and launched in India with prices starting at Rs 2 lakh. The motorcycle comes from Classic Legends, the same group behind Jawa and BSA Scrambler 650, which was also introduced alongside this launch.
Yezdi Scrambler – Powertrain
The biggest update on the Yezdi Scrambler is its new 350cc liquid cooled engine. This unit now produces 30 hp and 30 Nm of torque, the brand claims it is more usable and responsive than before. The company calls this the “Katar” engine and claims it is the lightest and most powerful motor in its class within the brand’s lineup.
Yezdi also claims a fuel efficiency figure of 30 km per litre, which should make it relatively practical for both city and highway use. The addition of three riding modes Road, Off road and Rain further helps tailor the performance based on riding conditions.
Yezdi Scrambler – Design and Seat Height
One of the most important improvements is the weight reduction. The updated Yezdi Scrambler now weighs 174 kg, down from 182 kg on the previous version. This 8 kg drop has been achieved partly by switching from a twin exhaust setup to a single exhaust system.
In terms of design, the motorcycle retains its familiar scrambler stance and silhouette. However, it now gets updated graphics and a revised seat for better comfort. The seat height stands at 813 mm.
Yezdi Scrambler – Mechanicals and Features
The Yezdi Scrambler continues with a simple and robust suspension setup. It uses telescopic front forks and twin rear shock absorbers. The bike rides on 19 inch wire spoke wheels at the front and 17 inch units at the rear, which suits its scrambler character.
The inclusion of riding modes adds a layer of versatility, allowing riders to switch between different conditions without much effort.
Yezdi Scrambler – Price and Variants
The Yezdi Scrambler is offered in multiple variants with different colour options. Pricing starts at Rs 2,00,000 for the Legacy Black variant. The OG Yellow and Rogue Red variants are priced at Rs 2,06,000, while the Rally Blue variant goes up to Rs 2,09,000.
Boman Irani, Co-Founder of Classic Legends, said, “Yezdi has always belonged to riders with a flair for style and little patience for rigid labels. I grew up around these machines and got to see the underground scrambler movement myself. When I think of Yezdi, I think of scramblers. Each ride carries a sense of mischief that has always been a part of the Yezdi experience. The first Yezdi Scrambler made the format accessible in India; the new one expands what scramblers can become.”
Scramblers were co-created by riders before they were manufactured — from hand- modified BSAs in the 1940s and ‘50s to Yezdis adapted across Indian roads in the decades that followed. Yezdi revived the format in India in 2022 with the country’s first mainstream factory-custom scrambler. It stood apart in a market that was still defined by utility rather than design. Today’s launches extend that commitment with two new scramblers built around the format’s original demands: Lightweight, torque-led, and responsive.
