The new Jawa model line-up for India

Both Jawa models have been designed and developed from scratch keeping in mind the distinctive character, unique sound, styling and riding experience. The new Jawa and Jawa forty two are tuned as retro and modern classics respectively for today’s discerning riders.

Every element, right from the beautifully sculpted engine, an all new chassis and suspension combination and timeless design has been carefully honed for an exhilarating riding experience. The Jawa and Jawa forty two are infused with modern technology, advanced safety delivering enhanced riding confidence, while maintaining their authentic Jawa style and classic charm.

Jawa & Jawa forty two:

Jawa: The timeless style and iconic character of the original Jawa is reborn in this new Jawa. With an evolutionary aesthetic that retains the authenticity and familiarity of the past – classy, elegant, sophisticated, majestic. This one is tuned for the legacy seekers. The Jawa in its form and function is the quintessential classic with old world character and truly modern performance.

Jawa forty two: This is the classic that breaks boundaries and experiments. With quirkiness in its design and unconventional traits the forty two is a – toned, muscled, sporty, aggressive version of a classic. If there was ever to be one, The forty two is meant to appeal to the heart as well as the head.

New Jawa Engine: The 293cc liquid cooled, single cylinder DOHC engine

A 293cc liquid cooled, single cylinder, DOHC engine, built from the ground up in collaboration with the best of Italian engineering. It is going to be an all new, and at the same time, a classic Jawa experience. It packs 27 bhp and 28 Nm of torque with a generous mid-range and a flat torque curve. Thus offering an unwavering, consistently powered ride. But at the core of its heart and along the length of its classic lines. With every beat of its signature twin exhaust, it is unmistakably the Jawa you will love. The engine platform is built ready for the BS6 norms.

The Unique Sound:

Sound is a signature trigger for emotions and especially true for motorcycles. The quest for the new 4-stroke Jawa sound took us to Verona, Italy. It was here where a duo of maverick sound engineers, walked with us through all stages right from the origin of the Jawa sound. Going through countless cycles of harmonic pipe combinations and multiple other permutations to discover a sound that was worthy of the new Jawa.

The Design Philosophy:

We had two options:

Start from the point where it ended.
Or start where it would have gone had it not ended when it did.

From a design perspective, it’s got that golden ratio that transcends through time. With the lines you can recognise it’s a Jawa. Our new Jawa and Jawa forty two take the legendary story to the next chapter – without losing the original character of the Jawa. Today’s Jawa connects you to the legacy of over 90 years, and it is built with everything that comes with modern engineering. We made sure that a Jawa retains all that is great about the name. One still gets the breath-taking looks on a bike that is dependable enough for everyday use as well as easy and fun to ride just like the old times.

The Jawa has been one of the most sought-after motorcycles among the icons of Indian cinema from the 70s through the 90s and can be seen burning the tarmac in some legendary movies. The Jawa brings about the quintessential pedigree of class, style and attitude.
