▼Yezdi Motorcycles, a prominent brand operating under Classic Legend,s, is gearing up to launch a brand-new motorcycle in India on April 23. Sharing its official launch date with the highly anticipated BSA Scrambler 650, this mysterious new model is heavily rumored to feature a much larger 652cc engine. Moving away from its current powertrain,n Yezdi aims to disrupt the premium motorcycle segment with this aggressive new offering.
Decoding the Cryptic Yezdi Teaser
The brand recently released its first official teaser on various social media platforms, creating massive excitement among motorcycle enthusiasts. While the company kept exact details hidden, the cryptic caption provided a massive clue about what is coming next.
The teaser was posted with the caption stating that at least it is not 69 days to go. In the Yezdi universe, the number 69 is famously associated with the current 334cc engine used on its popular Roadster and Adventure models. By explicitly calling out this number, the manufacturer heavily hints that the upcoming motorcycle will feature a completely different and far more powerful engine architecture.
Engine Specifications and Expected Upgrades
Currently, the brand utilizes a standard 334cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that produces 29 hp and 29 Nm of peak torque. However, with the teaser implying a shift away from this platform, industry experts predict a massive power upgrade.
Since Classic Legends is also launching the BSA Scrambler 650 on the same day, it is highly likely that the new Yezdi motorcycle will share its powertrain and underpinnings.

The 650cc Advantage
If the new motorcycle borrows the BSA platform, it will be powered by a massive 652cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine. This unit generates a robust 45 hp of maximum power and an impressive 55 Nm of peak torque, hitting exactly at 4000 rpm. This translates to immense low-end grunt and exceptional highway cruising capabilities,s making it a serious contender in the middleweight segment.
Will It Be a New Yezdi Scrambler
Looking closely at the current Yezdi lineup, the brand offers a Scrambler, a Roadster,r and an Adventure motorcycle. Both the Roadster and Adventure models received significant updates in 2025.
- The Current Scrambler: It has remained completely unchanged for a while.
- Pricing: It currently sells at a starting price of Rs 1.95 lakh ex-showroom.
- Market Position: A larger Scrambler would perfectly bridge the gap between entry-level retro bikes and premium middleweight machines.
Given that the Scrambler is overdue for an update and the sister brand BSA is launching a 650cc Scrambler on the same day, all signs point toward a big-bore Yezdi Scrambler making its grand debut.
Conclusion
The upcoming April 23 launch event is shaping up to be a monumental day for Classic Legends. By teasing a brand new motorcycle that steps away from its traditional 334cc roots, Yezdi is clearly targeting riders who crave more power and premium performance. Whether it is a 650cc Scrambler or an entirely new flagship model, this launch will undoubtedly strengthen the presence of the brand in the highly competitive Indian motorcycle market.
