Yamaha New Rajdoot 350 Returns: Picture this: the open road, the wind in your face, and the deep rumble of a classic motorcycle. That’s the Yamaha Rajdoot 350, a bike that ruled Indian roads in the ’80s and ’90s, making a grand comeback in 2025. This isn’t just a motorcycle; it’s a time machine on two wheels, blending that old-school charm with modern tech. The Rajdoot 350 was a symbol of power and freedom back in the day, and Yamaha’s bringing it back with a fresh look, a powerful engine, and all the comforts today’s riders crave. It’s like your favorite retro song getting a remix that slaps just as hard.
Retro Style with a Modern Twist: Yamaha New Rajdoot 350 Returns
The new Rajdoot 350 nails the vintage vibe with its round LED headlamp, teardrop fuel tank, and chrome accents that scream nostalgia. It’s got that classic cruiser look—think wide handlebars and a low-slung frame—but with a modern edge. You’ll find sleek alloy wheels, a matte-gloss finish, and a semi-digital dashboard that mixes analog charm with digital smarts. Colors like Midnight Black, Vintage Bronze, and Classic Red make it a head-turner, whether you’re cruising city streets or hitting the highway. It’s the kind of bike that makes people stop and say, “Whoa, what’s that?”

A Beast of an Engine
Under the hood—or rather, under the tank—the 2025 Rajdoot 350 packs a punch with a 349cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, four-stroke engine. This BS6-compliant beast churns out around 20.5–25 bhp and 27–28 Nm of torque, perfect for zipping through traffic or cruising on open roads. Paired with a smooth 5-speed gearbox, it offers quick acceleration and a relaxed ride at 80–110 km/h. Plus, it’s got fuel injection for better efficiency, delivering a solid 40–45 kmpl, so you’re not breaking the bank at the pump. This engine keeps the Rajdoot’s iconic thump but with a refined, eco-friendly twist.

Packed with Modern Goodies
Don’t let the retro looks fool you—this bike’s got tech to match. It comes with dual-channel ABS for safer braking, tubeless tires for fewer puncture worries, and LED lights for better visibility.
