The Engineering Gap: What Java and Yezdi Need to Learn From TVS

In an incredibly competitive sub-500cc market, having a legacy brand name is no longer enough to win over riders. So, what sets the market leaders apart from the rest of the pack?

In this segment of The Flying Talks, we explore the evolving dynamics of mid-weight motorcycles. While brands like Husqvarna bring uniquely designed machines into the segment, it has largely vanished from the conversation among the masses. Meanwhile, collaboration models like TVS's 310 series alongside BMW's 310R, 310GS, and the Apache RR 310 stand out for their technical refinement. We dive into why legacy brands like Java and Yezdi—despite producing good motorcycles in their price range—still need to look closely at TVS to learn how to apply brilliant engineering and ride refinement to their platforms.
