Yezdi Roadster Test Drive User Reviews

I brought the yezdi roadster in april 2022.I had originally planned for meteor 350, But after giving this bike a test drive, I went for this for its killer looks and mind blowing torque.Now coming to the bike itself, Finish is good.The welding works could have been better though.The bike no doubt feels premium and is a head turner on road.Driveability- this is surely a good drive.The weight management is very good as the bike doesn't feel heavy while driving.Cornering and city ride with moderate traffic is easy.2nd, 3rd and 4th gears are great for pickup and overtaking while 5th and 6th gears are excellent on tours.However, Driving in city requires frequent gear shifting, As the bike tends to knock at lower speeds on 3rd and 4th gear too, Approx about at 30-40kmph.The radiator fans kicks off quiet frequently in city drive and may give an offending fan noise to the rider.The exhaust from the radiator is, I would say, Misplaced to the footrest which sends off very hot air to the feet.You cannot drive this without proper foot gear as after sometime you can definitely feel your feet burn.But, Given the excellent torque, Weight management, Balanced and good wheelbase driving this beast is fun.I didn't feel any pain in the wrists after long drives which is common when i ride few other bikes.The ground clearance of this bike is very good and it feels very stable even at uneven roads, But the suspension is set to hard so you can feel the bumps.The headlights are led, With not so good light throw even at high beam and you may need after market lights if you drive at night on highways or if offroading.Mileage- this can be deal breaker for many but on road mileage varies widely from approx 22-25 in city traffic to 30 approx on highways.Accessories- presently aftermarket accessories are quiet limited but will grow with time.Service cost- service cost is bit higher with the first service costing around 1900 rupees, But motul engine oil and quality consumables were given.Overall a good bike if you like good torque, Speed and retro looks.

Probably, I went for a test drive with over expectations, I.Wasnt impressed at all after my test drive 9th block jayanagar, Bangalore showroom.Here are few.Points 1.Initially throttle performance is good in comparison to re meteor, However ride experience on meteor is like butter smooth, While roadster is very rough and not refined.2.In case your idea is touring bike, Roadster is a.Confused ergonomics.It's neither here or there.3.Gears don't slot well.On the dashboard it showed gear is in 0 or neutral, And then opened the clutch.Bike simply jumped, Stalled and fell.I wasn't hurt thankfully, But had to pay for minor damages, For none of my fault.At this price point if yezdi can't get their gear shifts right, Then they will never get it.So.Simply no to this new yezdis roadster and no competition to re meteor which wins this hands down.
