The launch of the 2025 Yezdi Adventure has been rescheduled for June 4, postponed from its original date of May 15. The bikemaker has circulated "Block Your Date" invitations for the launch event, accompanied by a promotional graphic that subtly hints at the new Adventure’s design changes. Classic Legends opted to delay the unveiling as a mark of respect for the Indian Armed Forces amid recent tensions between India and Pakistan, reflecting a sense of national solidarity. Despite the delay, anticipation remains high for the adventure motorcycle, which is expected to feature updated styling. Key upgrades will likely include a sharper design, refreshed graphics, and a 334cc engine meeting OBD-2B emission norms. With its rugged appeal and touring-oriented features, the Yezdi Adventure aims to take on rivals like the KTM 250 Adventure, Hero XPulse 210, and Royal Enfield Himalayan. Pricing is expected to fall between Rs 2.10 lakh and Rs 2.16 lakh (ex-showroom).
In 2024, the Yezdi Adventure underwent significant enhancements, including an updated exhaust design, the debut of the “Alpha 2” motor, fresh colour choices, and a weight-reduced chassis. While those changes brought improved refinement and handling, the 2025 version is set to undergo a more extensive visual makeover, aimed at giving the bike a more distinctive and refined identity.

Spy shots of the new model suggest a sleeker profile, especially towards the rear. The fuel tank was heavily camouflaged, making it difficult to determine whether it would receive a redesign. That said, key adventure-ready elements remain intact, such as a circular headlamp, a high-mounted front fender, a bash plate, a tall windshield, an upswept, angular exhaust, rear luggage rails, a signature beak, and a split-seat configuration.
On the feature front, the motorcycle is likely to retain its core tech offerings, including Bluetooth connectivity, USB charging ports, a three-mode ABS (Road, Rain, and Off-Road), and turn-by-turn navigation. Riders can also expect the off-road ABS mode to again offer full deactivation of the rear brake assist, improving control during tough trail rides.
The core mechanical setup is expected to remain unchanged. The bike will likely retain the same frame and the familiar 334cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, delivering an identical output of 29.2bhp and 29.8Nm of torque. The gear-specific engine mapping, introduced in the previous major update, is also anticipated to carry over.

Additionally, the bike will likely comply with the new OBD2-B standards and E20 ethanol fuel compatibility, which are mandatory for all motorcycles sold from April 1, 2025.
