Yezdi India official Twitter, Instagram handles launched

Mahindra-owned Classic Legends appears to be working on bringing back Yezdi and BSA, as Yezdi India official Twitter and Instagram accounts have been launched. According to a Rush Lane report, like Jawa, Yezdi brand too is now owned by Mahindra. Classic Legends also successfully resurrected the Jawa brand. When a new Twitter and Instagram handle @yezdiofficial became active, the speculation was rife that the company was working on bringing back iconic names such as Yezdi and BSA. 

However, there is yet no official confirmation about the launch of Yezdi and BSA motorcycles in India. Classic Legends acquired the rights to use Yezdi and BSA brand names in specific Asian markets including in India as was Jawa brand, the report said.

Re-launching of these motorcycles may be a successful venture for Classic Legends, as they have a significant fan following. According to reports, Jawa received record bookings, therefore, Yezdi and BSA motorcycles may also yield dividend after launch.

Yezdi and BSA motorcycles will share a lot of components with Jawa motorcycles and Jawa, in turn, borrows from Mahindra Mojo once launched, it said. Both the motorcycles share the same 293 CC, four-stroke liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine.

Yezdi, a popular motorcycle brands in India in the 70s and 80s, with models like Classic, Road King, Oil King, Deluxe, among others, may witness presence in the Indian market by 2020.
