Pros Cons Yezdi Scrambler

Pros

  • The Katar engine has excellent mid-range pull
  • The bike is now much easier to handle in the city
  • Authentic vintage dirt-tracker design kept intact
  • Sharp pricing starting under Rs. 2.00 lakh

Cons

  • Bouncy ride at higher speeds over uneven tarmac
  • Cramped riding position, hard for pillion riders
  • No connected features and low display visibility in the sun
  • Switching between the ride modes is difficult

Verdict

Classic Legends clearly spent some time on research before developing this 2026 update. The new Yezdi Scrambler has dropped its unnecessary weight, fixed the harsh vibrations, and introduced an engine that finally feels ready to compete with the big names in this segment.

While the rear suspension does feel bouncy at high speeds and the pillion seat is somewhat impractical, the bike makes up for these flaws with its sheer character. It is an entertaining motorcycle that looks fantastic and offers proper off-road capability for a very reasonable price.

Preetam sums up the bike perfectly,

“If the first-generation Scrambler left you curious but unconvinced, the 2026 version deserves a serious second look, because Classic Legends has listened and delivered.”
