We have tested the Yezdi Adventure, here’s our take in images:
Recently, Yezdi launched its first ADV, aptly called the Yezdi Adventure in the fast-growing adventure touring segment. We took the bike out for a spin, and here are our thoughts conveyed in images:
The Yezdi Adventure gets a lean and tall stance and its design looks reminiscent of the Royal Enfield Himalayan. The motorcycle mounts a circular LED headlight, a tall windscreen, knuckle guards and a sharp beak up front.
Moving to the side, you'll see that the bike gets a Yezdi badge on its 15.5-litre fuel tank and tank pads on both sides. However, the way the tank merges into the side body panels makes it difficult for the rider to lock his/her knees while standing or riding the bike. The ADV also gets an underbelly pan, split-type step-up seat, an upswept exhaust, tail rack and a lean tail section with an LED taillight. Talking about the fit and finish, there is scope of improvement on this part.
The footpegs on the Yezdi are a bit higher, which might not be the best thing for shorter riders as it takes a fraction of a second more for their foot to reach the ground.
Talking about the features, the Yezdi Adventure gets USB type-A and type-C charging ports the mounting of which could have been better and a tilt-adjustable Bluetooth-enabled LCD instrument cluster with turn-by-turn navigation.
The addition of the tilt adjustment for the console is a very thoughtful touch. However, the Yezdi could have managed the space a bit more efficiently on the console.

The Yezdi Adventure draws power from the Jawa Perak-derived 334cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 30.2PS and 29.9Nm. In our test, we learnt that the ADV performs slightly better than its primary rival, the Royal Enfield Himalayan in terms of straight-line acceleration and mileage as well thanks to its 188kg of kerb weight (11kg lighter than the Himalayan) and the six-speed gearbox. While the engine is capable of doing high speeds, it is difficult to sustain them because of the harsh vibrations at the pegs, seat, and most prominently, the fuel tank.
The suspension duty on the Yezdi Adventure is handled by a telescopic fork up front and a monoshock at the rear. In our test, we found that the suspension tuning isn't the most comfortable, as it is on the harder side. Though the firm ride helps in handling, it gets worse as you go off the road as the front suspension tends to thud over larger bumps, and the rear monoshock skips about. This results in the bike getting unsettled fairly quickly.
The braking of the ADV is taken care of by a 320-/240mm disc brake setup, assisted by dual-channel ABS. This setup offers good stopping power with minimum effort, the lever progression, brake bite and ABS calibration have also been carried out well.
The Yezdi Adventure rolls on a 21-/17-inch spoke wheel setup that comes wrapped in a 90-section tyre up front and a wider 130-section rubber at the rear. This setup offers a good grip while initiating sharper turns. However, they feel jittery over rumble strips and sharp bumps.
The Yezdi Adventure is offered in three colours: Slick Silver, Mambo Black, and Ranger Camo. The former is priced at Rs 2,09,900 while the latter two costs Rs 2,11,900 and Rs 2,18,900 (ex-showroom Delhi) respectively. Overall, even though the Yezdi Adventure has equipment to deal with both touring and off-roading, it is best suited for road-riding than terrain-taming.

- Yezdi Adventure
Very good comfortable bike for touring and off-road. Comfortable for city as well. I have driven close to 18000 kms and felt very ease to ride. It's easy to maneuver in the city also mileage compared to other bikes I felt the mileage is accurate. In proper Hyderabad traffic I'm able to get 29-31 and highways it's a book crazy 36.
1 1 - Well built machine
Well built bike, very good riding posture. Upright and stable handling. This bike is very comfortable for long distance touring. 500 km in a day is very easy. No fatigue or tiredness whatsoever. In the city the torque helps pull ahead. The size of the bike is bit tricky to manage in traffic but overall fine motorcycle.
- The best value for money Adventure Tourer.
I decided to buy this bike primarily because of the approachable seat height, which was my main priority. Being 5'7 feet, the size and ergonomics are a perfect match for physique. I feel completely in control. Beyond the comfort, I absolutely love the way it looks, man I love the design it is stunning in every angle especially with the updated duel headlamps. On top of that the bike has great features and offers excellent mileage, it is a total package. So far i did 3 rides of around 300 km on this beast and honestly the comfort is excellent. I did not get back ache even once (of course i had no rides longer than 300km). Overtaking long vehicles on highway is easy the power of the bike never disappointed me. Cruising at 110Kmph is smooth, the max i went was 145 but that felt hard on the engine. mileage i am getting is around 40kmpL with a avg speed of 80 kmph. The best part of the ride are the suspension and the headlamps. The High bead throw of the bike is actually far better than the stock headlamps of the bikes in my gang like the TRK 502x, Himalayan 450, GT 650 and the Triumph Speed 400. Suspension of this bike is butter smooth when the road is bad (at least thats what i felt). Speaking of the service the service center guys are very friendly, the service quality is on point. I had a small engine light issue after 1st service but they fixed it in 5 mins and were genuinely interested in helping. Everything running smooth now. The bike also has 3 riding modes road, Off road, and rain. and they do work actually. Once i drove my bike in very heavy rain with a pillion the breaking of the bike was Great even in the heavy rain and slippery roads (had the riding mode in rain) with the regular road mode also the breaking was excellent with the Bybre braking system and the duel channel ABS i feel much confident while breaking and riding at higher speeds. I did not get the chance to do much of off roading so do not have much idea about the off road riding mode. I will definitely recommend this bike. The biggest plus point is the seat the 815mm seat height it makes the bike more accessible for wider range of riders including the once who are not very tall like me. The best part is they managed this seat height without sacrificing the ground clearance. It feels a little bit top heavy but the weight is still very manageable, so this bike is a really great option for beginners too. In this price segment if you want a robust build quality and real off road capability without breaking the bank or losing out features this bike is a excellent option for you.
