Yezdi has launched the 2023 Roadster in India, updating it to comply with OBD-2 norms. The Royal Enfield Meteor 350-rival has been priced from Rs 2.06 lakh, ex-showroom. This price is applicable if you choose the Smoke Gret, Inferno Red or Glacial White colours. The Crimson Dual Tone paint is priced at Rs 2.08 lakh, ex-showroom.
Now, the most significant change to the Yezdi Roadster is the larger rear sprocket to enhance the low-end performance. It also comes with redesigned mufflers for a revised exhaust note. Other than this the motorcycle remains the same as before. The Yezdi Roadster sports minimal bodywork and gets a round headlamp, a petite fuel tank and a chunky-looking rear fender. All of it is pinned onto a platform borrowed from the Jawa 42.2.1.
Under its neo-retro clothing is a 334cc engine that has been derived from the Jawa Perak, although with a revised internals and a re-tune to suit the Roadster. So, it churns out 29.29bhp at 7,300rpm and 29Nm at 6,500rpm. In terms of features, the Yezdi Roadster is decently equipped. It comes with a full-LED headlamp and tail lamp, hazard lights, and a fully-digital instrument cluster. This single-pod cluster with an LCD and chrome bezel around it displays a good amount of data but misses out on connectivity. Along with these features, the Roadster also gets a dual-channel ABS as standard.
