Royal Enfield Thunderbird is a two seater cruiser motorcycle but, Yoddha is modified into a single seater. The frame and the swingarm of the motorcycle has been modified and it now gets a saddle type suspended seat with a mono-shock suspension at the rear. The original exhaust of the Thunderbird would have looked very odd on this motorcycle, so they replaced it with an aftermarket stainless steel exhaust system. It gets a free-flowing M4 muffler for an aggressive exhaust note.

Rear tyre on Yoddha is quite wide and a custom made fender is also placed neatly above it.  The front does get a bigger disc brake and the whole bike gets grey and black dual tone paint job with pinstripes at places. With all these modifications, the motorcycle does look quite aggressive like a warrior. It is not known whether any modifications have been done to the engine of this motorcycle. Neev Motorcycles has done a brilliant job with this motorcycle. Neev Motorcycles is a well-known custom bike building/ modification outfit based in Delhi.
