Classic Legends launched the 2025 Yezdi Adventure yesterday with some notable upgrades over the outgoing model. The Yezdi Adventure sits right in between the Hero Xpulse 210 and the Royal Enfield Himalayan. The latter is the undisputed benchmark in the entry-level adventure touring space. Let us look at how the Yezdi Adventure fares against the Royal Enfield Himalayan.
2025 Yezdi Adventure vs Royal Enfield Himalayan: Design
In the latest iteration, the Yezdi Adventure gets quite a few cosmetic upgrades over the previous model. The biggest change is the twin-pod circular asymmetric LED headlamp setup which looks familiar to the BMW F 800 GS. The front beak has been redesigned to be taller and adopts a rally-inspired style, while the windscreen now offers adjustability.
Additional updates include a standard bash plate for enhanced underbody protection, improved seat cushioning to boost rider comfort, and sleek dual-LED taillights that accentuate the updated look.
On the other hand, the Royal Enfield Himalayan maintains its rugged, utilitarian character. Its design is more understated, yet it presents a larger presence compared to the KTM 390 ADV. Built with touring in mind, it features a more comfortable seat, an upright riding posture, and integrated provisions for mounting luggage.

Coming to features, the new Yezdi Adventure gains features such as traction control and three ABS modes: Road, Rain, and Off-Road. Other features on offer include a rectangular instrument cluster with dual circular LCD screens that provides essential ride data, Bluetooth connectivity with turn-by-turn navigation via a paired smartphone, and a USB charging port.
The Enfield takes the edge over the Yezdi when it comes to features.
