‘We’re Not Lagging Behind’ – Inside the Bold Vision for Classic Bikes | OVERDRIVE

Emm.m hmmmm emmmm mmmmm hmmmm emmmm

It’s been 3 years my Yezdi adventure not yet registered , purchased the bike from Skanda Motors Rajajinagar Bangalore, the guy name called Chandrashekar is not responding , they took bike in the month of march 2022 and they promised for the refund and loan closer also , but till now nothing has done, no bike with me , I dint get money also , they doing fraud job telling all cooked up stories, now i see showroom also closed no help from yezdi india and local team also lost my 2 lac money !! Im still paying EMI amount 😢😢😢

Better dont trust yezdi anymore

I was going through the launch of the latest Yezdi Adventure 2025 and this video, and I wanted to share a few thoughts about the ideology of the Yezdi brand and Jawa as well. I’ve noticed that people want one clear thing from their brands. For example, if Jawa wants to make a Classic, then make it a real Classic – don’t overcomplicate it with a DOHC engine or too much modern tech. Let it be a proper classic in every sense, and let the other models adopt the tech if needed.

With Yezdi, they had a great opportunity to make it more versatile, perhaps even closer to the KTM or Bajaj approach. But it seems like they’re bringing the same engine platform in every model without truly correcting the core issues or refining the real experience. In cities where people still drive on busy streets every day, this matters.

My point is: keep the essence of a classic model pure and simple, and let modern tech live in the bikes that are meant for it.

Any bike in India without tubeless is useless and a big no.

That's true they always a step a ahead Comparing others, When RE scared and failed to do, yezdi scrambler, and Bobber 42 or perak, wow they delivered the best model to Indians to ride and feel unique, Just like Mojo back in 2016, a touring bike with 21l fuel tank, still mojo was a ahead to others on that time..

They are not lagging behind in filing cases against consumers, making sure all critics are silenced

I love jawa, yezdi and BSA. Since my dad have old BSA falcon when I was child, I learned driving in that bike. Now for new bikes there are spares and service issues. Please fix these issues, sales will go up and up.

You are not lagging behing , you guys are out of competition 😂😂

Iam cancel this bike just because of tube tyre otherwise I love this bike

I've ridden my brother's Yezdi Adventure quite a bit, and it's an awesome machine—no doubt. But it's got a few downsides that made me skip buying one for myself.

One big reason? I once took it on a ride to an offbeat spot, and boom—the tire got punctured. The bike was fully loaded and heavy, so I had to push it nearly 4 km to find a local puncture repair shop. By the time I got there, I was completely drained. And as if that wasn’t enough trouble, the bike doesn’t have a center stand. Of course, the repair guy didn’t have a paddock stand either. When I put it on the side stand, it tipped over.

So I had to unload everything, then hold the bike steady while taking out the rear wheel, and keep it balanced until the repair was done. Honestly, having an adventure bike with tube tires and no center stand is just asking for trouble. Even if you carry a spare tube and repair kit, doing the fix yourself is nearly impossible. I was really hoping Yezdi would offer tubeless spoke rims, at least as an accessory, but they didn’t.

For me, functionality always beats aesthetics. Riding to breathtaking offbeat places might be an adventure, but getting a flat and dragging a 190kg bike through nowhere? Now that's a real adventure.

No lag.. apart from sales.. needs big customer experience sessions

Bike of the year by whom. This person is funny.

It wanted to become a Himalayan but got a copyright strike... Traction control is there even on a R15 V4...and tubed tyres on a touring bike !!!😮😮 Good morning..½ of 2025 is over...

Looks better than the Himalayan 450. But am I going to put my money on it?? Absolutely not!! The whole point of an adventure bike is taking it to offbeat places and no tubeless tyres?? That's single most turn off and scare parts availability and service centres is the final nail in the coffin.

Poor engine performance! Not reliable. 😑👎🏻

He was on the defensive throughout because he knows he just can't compete with his main rival Royal Enfield. The main value feature this bike could have was tubeless tyres but it doesn't. Why? When you are competing with Royal Enfield Himalayan which gives tubeless tyres as an option why don't you also give it?
A road going adventure bike has to have tubeless tyres.

No tubeless tyres is a big miss else I would have bought this vehicle

Should have offered Optional Tubeless Tires. Otherwise no complaints for the price it comes at

I don't know about your bikes but your service is pathetic. Fix that.

What kind of questions are these?

Himalayan had a kid with BMW , Ducati was there gardener

'this is a square engine' - when someone who is super high up the corporate ladder in the company, is wrong about the specs, that's really telling :(

Mix of all big brand bikes,,,,
Windshield Ducati desert x
Head light bmw gs
Overall look himalyan 411,

These folks are delusional, didnt give tubeless tires or even a center stand. Please shut the shop tata byebye

poor sales, bad engine, no tubeless system; you are way behind sir, not one buys this crap anymore, aftersales suck a lot, spare part availability is very poor.

Bajaj and hero are way way ahead of you 😂
Don't even drem to compete with them

Won't touch it even with a pole

Congratulations for classic legends ive loved the new adventure .Recently i have bought the classic legend's adventure YEZDi 2024 and one thing overall i should admit is that its performance,man its really good . But ive faced an eneveventful issues from the 1st day of my bike delivery from the showroom itself. On the day of delivery itself an uneven screeching sound was coming from the back tyre and i addressed this issue to them . They denied at first and then ask me to bring the bike to service ; here in the service centre they removed the back tyre of my new delivered bike which was really heartbreaking for me as i just released it . Then they adjusted it and said its some dust particles present in rear disk break. I know that its not the issue and i asked them to check thoroughly then give, they said the issue has been resoved and i could take my bike home.
Now aftr 15 days i got my bike issue resolved ,in between same issue was coming and going ,each time i visited the service centre and they couldn't solve the issue .After that i left my bike in service centre. But now the issue has been resolved after 15 days. In contrast, the service sector needs to be more focused rather than to release bew bikes because now a days bikes life depends on the basis of the efficiency of service centers present. Kindly improve the service of classic legends and appoint mechanics having good track record and professional knowledge so they could gain u more in market competition amongst others.

For me at first i felt so bad with the experience as we say first impressions are the good impression so for me it was bit bitter experience. Main thing is that ive complained this issue through email on their website,still they didn't contact me or replied to my mail about the issue or even didnt call me to collect the feedback. I think all other premium bikes would definitely react when there is any issues being addressed by the customer, thats why customer care facility is for .Here also classic legends needs to rectify the attitudes towards its customers ( baisically the dealers they select to sell their bikes are the guys having too low standards who dont even want to give reply to the customers issues and send feedback.)

In conclusion, iam still lacking my confidence only due the poor service centres. This is the main pitfall where u lack ur marketing according to me . But the bikes performance and riding comfort is really good however, service needs to grow way ahead otherwise even how many new bikes u release , without providing a better customer service and bike service wouldnot help you to win markets and hearts

25kmpl is tough for Indian Consumers 😅

One nail and it kisses your rear tyre of your fully loaded adventure bike...!!!
Good luck dragging 200kgs, and also you don't even get a centre stand.
I must say, laude lag jayenge 😂

Design was much better before

Yes we are not lagging behind in sending legal notices to silence customers who are affected by our poor quality productss

Keeping mind competency between other competitor, it is justified in the price segment

A tubeless setup is a major miss

Pricing is nit disruptive its atrocious tbh

Jawa/ yezdi are done for. All talk no QC, no after sales

And what about tube tyre

I can't consider this Bike because this Bike is not a tubeless tyre and option👎

There is only one Service centre in Kolkata!! And the next Service centre is about 60km away from my home(Garia)...So Mr. Anupam please work on the same on priority!! I own the Classic Jawa and it's my complete disappoint on Service and accessories!! Put some serious efforts on these areas too...

So many X customers and existing users themselves are thrashing them for lag of services and parts and overall issues not resolved. Guys as brand be visible in showroom and service stations with right attitude to solve issues. Or else why are existing customers bashing in the comments. And you say we are competitive with Market what are you even thinking.

We want tuples tyres

They are not lagging behind in the ultimate product, nor in the number of potential buyers considering their offering , but they certainly are in increasing dealership and service centres, and even with such limited numbers of sales they fail to supply the spare parts

goid option but this category was created by long stroke engines❤

Sadly Adventure 2024 model user we dint get support for headlight visibility issue. No update given by brand.. I have 2024 ob2 Adventure

Customer demands tubeless spoke rim and they awarded honda CRF300 headlight😂

Why not a fully digital console?

IBOTY 2024 was Himalayan 450, 2025 is Aprilia RS 457. Not sure why he live in his own delulu world

Very nice motercycle. I want to buy it. But disappointing thing is that it don't have any option for tubeless tyer. They should think about the tubeless option.
