Key highlights
- Yezdi launches the updated Scrambler starting at Rs 1.99 lakh
- Gets a new 334cc liquid-cooled ‘Katar’ engine with 30bhp and 30Nm
- Claims to be India’s lightest scrambler at 174 kg
Classic Legends has taken the wraps off the all-new Yezdi Scrambler. Prices start at Rs 1.99 lakh, making it one of the most accessible entries into the scrambler space.
What’s new?
The biggest talking point here is weight. At 174 kg, Yezdi claims this is the lightest scrambler in the segment. The design sticks to the basics. Upright stance, raised beak, tight tail, and a clean, factory-custom vibe. It looks minimal, but not basic. Details like the oval side panels and ‘69’ graphics add some personality without going overboard.
New engine
At the heart of the bike sits a new 334cc liquid-cooled engine dubbed as ‘Katar’ mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The name is inspired by the ‘Katar’ dagger. It makes 30bhp and 30Nm. Yezdi calls it the ‘30-30-30’ formula. 30bhp, 30Nm, and 30 kmpl. Simple, easy to remember, and honestly quite relevant for real-world use.
Built for Indian roads
The Yezdi Scrambler gets a short wheelbase, mass centralisation, and tuned gearing. That translates into sharper turn-ins and better control when the road gets unpredictable.
The bike runs on spoked wheels with semi-knobby tyres. At the front you get a 19-inch wheel with 100/90 section tyre, while the rear gets 17-inch wheels with 140/70 section rubber. The front telescopic forks gets a 150mm suspension travel while the rear dual suspension gets 130mm of travel. Add to that a 320mm disc at the front and a 240mm at the rear.
Variants and colours
- Legacy Black – Rs 1,99,950
- OG Yellow – Rs 2,05,950
- Rogue Red – Rs 2,05,950
- Rally Blue – Rs 2,08,950
Ownership package
Yezdi is backing the bike with a 4-year or 50,000 km warranty. You can extend it up to 6 years. Roadside assistance and AMC options are also on the table.
Our thoughts
The Scrambler looks great and would score really high in a beauty contest, especially in that Rally Blue and OG Yellow shade. That 30-30-30 formula might sound like marketing, but it actually makes sense for Indian riding. If it rides as sharp as it looks on paper, this could quietly become one of the most fun motorcycles under Rs 2.5 lakh.
