Yamaha Rajdoot Bike: India’s iconic motorcycle, the Yamaha Rajdoot, has made a strong comeback in 2025. Known for its classic charm and robust build in the 80s and 90s, the new Rajdoot has now been reintroduced with modern technology, while preserving its retro appeal.
Launched under Yamaha’s heritage lineup, the Rajdoot 2025 Edition is being positioned as a nostalgic yet powerful offering for Indian riders who want the feel of the past with the performance of the present.
Let’s take a deeper look at what this modern classic has to offer.
Performance That Matches Modern Needs
The all-new Yamaha Rajdoot is powered by a 199cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine that delivers a top speed of 120 kmph. The bike maintains smooth power delivery even at high revs and comes with a 5-speed manual transmission.
Despite the high performance, the Rajdoot is tuned for efficiency, offering an impressive mileage of up to 64 km per litre, making it one of the most fuel-efficient bikes in its segment.
Classic Design with a Modern Touch
The 2025 Rajdoot retains the traditional round headlamp, chrome fenders, and upright handlebar. Yamaha has added modern touches like an LED lighting system, digital-analog instrument cluster, and alloy wheels while keeping the old-school tank design intact.
The seat is wide and cushioned for long rides, and the dual-tone paint options add to its retro feel. Available colors include Jet Black, Chrome Grey, and Vintage Red.
Suspension, Safety, and Comfort
The new Rajdoot uses telescopic front forks and dual spring-loaded shock absorbers at the rear, providing good stability on rough roads. Braking is handled by disc brakes at both ends with single-channel ABS as standard.
The bike weighs just under 130 kg, making it easy to handle for both city rides and highway cruising.
Pricing and EMI Options
Yamaha has priced the 2025 Rajdoot competitively at ₹1.28 lakh (ex-showroom). To make it accessible to a wider audience, the company is offering EMI plans starting at ₹8,100/month, available through authorized dealers and select finance partners.
Pre-bookings have already started in major cities and deliveries are expected from mid-August.
