The company gave trust to the customers

Classic Legends Co-Founder Anupam Thareja said, “I have always believed that just as SUVs changed the car market, Scramblers will give a new identity to the Indian riding culture. These are the SUVs of the motorcycle world. Scramblers are built for confident city driving. But at the same time, they are agile and strong enough to inspire you to go off-road and explore new areas on weekends. Yezdi and BSA’s We are all set to make a difference in the segment with a bold and beautiful design. With the Yezdi 350 and BSA 650, we have defined what an Indian scrambler can be. The new Yezdi is designed to be your first choice, a true scrambler in looks and performance.”

Boman Irani, co-founder of Classic Legends said,”Yezdi There have always been riders who love style and don’t like to be stuck in a certain frame. I grew up around these cars and have seen the Scrambler’s entire journey up close. When I think of Yezdi, I think of the Scrambler. Every ride has a kind of fun and excitement, which has always been part of the Yezdi experience. While the first Yezdi Scrambler introduced these bikes in India, the new model now expands the capabilities of the Scrambler.”

Designed keeping in mind the new needs

Scramblers were built by riders themselves before companies made them. It’s a journey from the manually modified BSA of the 1940s and 50s to the Yazdi modified for Indian roads in the following decades. Yezdi revived the genre in 2022 by bringing India’s first mainstream factory-custom scrambler. This bike stands out in a market that focuses on utility over design. Today’s beginnings are carrying forward this promise; These two new bikes have been designed keeping in mind the basic needs of a scrambler, light in weight, great torque and quick response.

What are the main characteristics of Yezdi

  • Lightest yet most powerful engine: With the new 350cc liquid-cooled ‘Qatar’ powertrain, the Yezdi gets the lightest yet most powerful engine in the segment by the company.
  • Factory Custom Look: At 174 kg it is the lightest scrambler in India. The design of the Yezdi is suited to its lightweight engine and gives it a ‘factory-custom’ look. The classic Scrambler’s curvaceous design, high front end and short rear fender give it an aggressive look. Its premium finish, exclusive oval side panels and ’69’ graphics are a reminder of the Yazidi’s origins and its storied heritage in rallying.
  • ’30-30-30′ — Perfect for Indian roads: The Yezdi is perfectly tuned to deliver 30 bhp power, 30 Nm torque and 30 km/l mileage. It’s a great performance-mix of a ‘true’ scrambler for on-roading and soft-roading.
  • Coolest Scrambler: Horizontally shaped radiator and center exhaust help reduce heat. This makes this motorcycle one of the coolest running scramblers for rider comfort
  • A true Scrambler: Balanced body weight, shortest wheelbase, tuned gears and low and mid-range torque give this bike excellent throttle response, quick pick-up and very precise handling in turns.
  • Strong Handling: Scrambler-exclusive spoke wheels, semi-knobby tires and best-in-class braking system provide strong road grip and better control, giving this motorcycle a confident ride without feeling heavy.
  • Who it’s for: Riders who like to ride, are agile and ready to change direction at a moment’s notice; For those who love a motorcycle that has a distinct identity of its own and is always ready to go wherever the road turns
