New Yezdi Adventure released with visual changes and updated mechanics
New Yezdi Adventure launched with a price range of Rs. 2.10 lakhs to Rs. 2.20 lakhs (all prices, ex-showroom). The starting price of the adventure bike is now lower. It comes in four colour options – Tornado Black (Rs. 2.10 lakhs), Magnite Maroon (Rs. 2.13 lakhs), Wolf Grey (Rs. 2.16 lakhs) and Glacier White (Rs. 2.20 lakhs).
One of the most significant changes is to the 334cc engine. Yezdi has made several internal modifications, including optimizing the coolant flow and rerouting the exhaust manifold to a central position. These tweaks are intended to improve heat management, according to the bike manufacturer. While the engine’s power output has decreased slightly to 29.6 hp, down 0.7 hp, torque remains stable at 29.8 Nm.
The design has also undergone practical changes. The previous model’s bulky tank rails, which formed a cage around the tank, have been replaced by a more streamlined system. New tank rails, positioned only on either side of the fuel tank, contribute to a more refined appearance. In addition, the skid plate has been redesigned and now includes an integrated sump guard, offering better protection to the underside of the engine.
Overall weight reduction is another highlight of the updated Yezdi Adventure. The motorcycle now weighs 4 kg less, while the new tank rails are 7 kg lighter. This results in an overall weight reduction of 11 kg, potentially improving the agility and handling of the bike. However, it is worth noting that the tank rails are considered a mandatory accessory, available for an additional Rs. 3499/-.
The Yezdi Adventure’s updates are part of a larger effort by Yezdi to refine and enhance its lineup, following a similar approach taken by Classic Legends with the Jawa 350. These changes address several known issues and should improve the motorcycle’s performance and appeal.
