Yezdi Roadster 350 Alpha2: Specs, price and features explained
The Yezdi name is synonymous with India's motorcycling heritage , but its recent comeback has been met with mixed results. While the revival stirred nostalgia, the brand has struggled to make the kind of impact its legacy deserved. With the launch of the 2025 Roadster, however, Yezdi is signalling its intent to shift gears and reassert itself in a highly competitive segment dominated by established names. The new Roadster builds on the brand's heritage while clearly appealing to modern sensibilities. Its design retains the classic Yezdi cues, including the sculpted fuel tank, chopped rear fender, and signature twin-barrel exhaust note. Wider rear tyres and bold details, such as the Faravahar insignia, add contemporary flair while grounding the motorcycle in its roots. What sets the Roadster apart is its extensive customisation. Riders can choose from six factory kits and over 20 accessories, enabling more than 50 possible combinations. The modular seating system, a first in the segment, lets owners to swap between a bobber-inspired solo seat and a dual-seat touring setup with ease. Options for handlebars, visors, and crash guards further broaden its adaptability. At its core lies the all-new 350 Alpha2 liquid-cooled engine, producing 29 PS and 30 Nm of torque. The inclusion of a six-speed gearbox, along with an assist and slipper clutch, reflects Yezdi's attempt to raise the bar in this category. A 12.5-litre fuel tank promises a practical touring range of over 350 km, while forward-set footpegs and a 795 mm seat height balance comfort with accessibility. When it comes to ride and handling, the Roadster impresses with Continental-sourced dual-channel ABS, 320 mm front and 240 mm rear disc brakes, and a suspension setup tuned for stability as well as comfort. This combination should give the Roadster the confidence to hold its own against rivals that have long defined the segment. Equally important is the ownership package. The Roadster is backed by the Jawa Yezdi BSA Ownership Assurance Programme, which provides a standard four-year/50,000 km warranty, roadside assistance, and extended coverage options. With more than 300 service touchpoints across India, Yezdi is investing in support infrastructure to build trust among customers. The mid-capacity motorcycle market is undeniably competitive, with strong contenders already enjoying loyal followings. Yet, with its updated engine, modular design, and aggressive pricing, the new Roadster represents Yezdi's most compelling offering yet. If it can translate heritage into consistent reliability and wider appeal, it may well find its footing in this space. The 2025 Yezdi Roadster is available in two variants. The standard version offers Sharkskin Blue (₹2,09,969), Smoke Grey (₹2,12,969), Bloodrush Maroon (₹2,16,969), and Savage Green (₹2,21,969). The premium Shadow Black variant, priced at ₹2,25,969, features matte finishes, blacked-out elements, and multifunctional blinkers. For a 350cc motorcycle with this level of equipment and customisation, the Roadster enters the market at a price point that is difficult to ignore.
